The Peel Integrated Waste Management Facility (IWMF) is Canada’s largest, featuring a Material Recovery Facility, waste transfer station, and an organic composting plant. The Algonquin Power Energy from Waste Facility transforms non-hazardous waste into energy. Understanding proper waste disposal and recycling processes is crucial for effective waste management and environmental sustainability in the community.
