After visiting Covanta this past week, I became interested in their progression in the field of waste management. I was very impressed with their facilities structure and order throughout each area and was curious as to if they were looking to expand--and if so where.
I found an article that details their reasoning behind the new partnership in which they have created with the corporation Clean Energy Fuels. These two companies are looking towards the opening of yet another facility like Covanta, to "compliment" the original. This new building will be built with minimal impacts on the surrounding environment. But their mission doesn't stop there, both companies are still searching for additional locations, throughout the United States to continue on in their quest for nationwide waste management.
I believe that the addition of another "Covanta like" facility would be greatly beneficial to any community. I hope to look into this expansion in the near future to see some form of progression because I now see the benefits that a company like Covanta can provide.
This is very interesting! I too enjoyed our class field trip to covanta, and believe they are definitely improving the environment around them with the conversion of waste to management.
