A smarter alternative to landfill
Residual waste in Australia has traditionally ended up in landfill— a costly, unsustainable path with limited space and significant environmental impact. Waste-to-energy provides a better alternative by converting non-recyclable waste into reliable energy while reducing landfill dependency. When waste-to-energy produces heat and energy, it also leaves behind a by-product called Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA). Instead of landfilling this material, Blue Phoenix gives it a second life.
Closing the loop with proven IBA recycling
As the operator of Australia’s first IBA processing facility, we work alongside waste-to-energy partners such as Acciona to recover metals and transform the mineral fraction into high-quality secondary aggregates. This process closes the loop: nothing goes to waste, and everything is put back into use. This way, we are increasing material recovery instead of disposal, reducing reliance on virgin quarry products, and delivering safe, non-hazardous, cost-effective, and carbon-effective materials for infrastructure.
How we support EfW operators
Integrated resource recovery
We recover ferrous and non-ferrous metals for recycling and reuse and transform IBA into graded aggregates suitable for civil engineering.
Assured quality and compliance
Our operations follow rigorous testing and monitoring so that outputs are safe, consistent, and compliant with Australian regulatory expectations.
Operational reliability
Proven global experience, adapted locally. We design for stable throughout, and predictable quality, helping operators meet recovery targets and stakeholder commitments.
Circular outcomes
IBA aggregates enable landfill diversion, resource conservation, and lower embodied carbon in projects.
Safe, Sustainable Aggregates for Construction
At Blue Phoenix, safety and quality are at the core of what we do. These aggregates are designed for practical applications, from support and protection layers in infrastructure to other construction needs.
By transforming residual waste into energy and construction materials, we:
- Reduce landfill dependency.
- Provide safe, sustainable aggregates for local projects.
- Provide consistent performance, competitive total cost, and a lower-carbon profile than primary materials.
Global expertise, local solutions
Blue Phoenix operates worldwide, supporting energy-recovery facilities in Europe, the UK, Australia, and beyond. Our global network gives us the advantages of continuously innovating. By bringing our global experience to the Middle East, we ensure the region benefits from proven technology, best practices, and innovative circular solutions.
