“Green” Wood
Green wood waste is not only a renewable organic material but is also one of the oldest and most prevalent energy resources. “Green” wood by definition is any wood that has recently been cut from a living source such as trees, shrubs, or brush.
Recycling green wood waste at a biomass power plant is carbon neutral and reduces greenhouse gases by displacing electricity generated from coal and preserves landfill space. Green wood waste is generated everyday under varying circumstances:
- As part of arbor operations such as utility line clearing, parks and recreation forest management, land clearing for development, and landscape projects.
- Natural disasters, caused by severe storms systems and tornados, generate large amounts of wood debris.
- Damaged wood caused by bug infestation or disease and or eradication of invasive species. MMR is MDEQ (Michigan Department of Environmental Quality) permitted and can guarantee disposal / recycling of compromised wood without negative environmental ramifications.
Unlike seasonal providers, MMR’s is available year round to respond to all your disposal / recycling needs.
