The CMI Green Fund supports the development of an innovative approach to recycling dead leaves collected by municipalities

February 2013, Sherbrooke – Financial support out of the CMI Green Fund has been provided to ENV consultants, a subsidiary of Viridis Environmental. In partnership with IRDA and the Régie de gestion des matières résiduelles de la Mauricie, this project aims to develop a technological treatment chain for dead leaves from the municipal sector to keep them out of landfill sites and turn them into a quality value-added product available for use in farming through direct application to fields. This technical research project will run during the fall of 2013.
