What happens to the material?
Tree branches are chopped and mixed with grass, horse manure and other materials at the landfill site at Álfsnes. The material is allowed to decompose to create compost, an organic soil supplement, as well as reduce the volume of buried organic waste. In addition, tree branches are used unchipped as an odour-preventive layer (bio-filter) at the landfill site.
Home soil production from organic waste provides excellent compost for the garden for those who have the facilities to do so. This maintains nutrients within nature’s cycle as well as reduces the transport of waste materials and thereby negative environmental effects.
