Pharmaceutical manufactured products, including unused products, blister packs, and powders
Healthcare products, including expired drugs, empty medicine bottles and other refuse contaminated with pharmaceutical chemicals
Personal care manufactured products, including cosmetics, perfumes, creams, and lotions, generating waste that requires specialised disposal
Drugs containing hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals
Over-the-counter medications
How is it recycled?
Novum’s offtake partner in mainland Europe produces district energy for the local community with different types of waste that would otherwise have been lost. In their combined heat and power plants, they produce both district heating and electricity at the same time, meaning that the fuel is used to its maximum recovery potential.
