Facility footprint

Swanbank Renewable Energy and Waste Management Facility (known locally as Swanbank Landfill) extends across 250 hectares in South West Brisbane, on Yuggera Country. The facility was established in 1997, and today accepts around 500,000 tonnes of material per annum.

Product destruction

Our secure product destruction capability at Swanbank has grown rapidly since we acquired the operation in July 2023, with 6 million litres processed as at March 2024. This facility is capable of securely and safely destroying glass, aluminium, PET and tetrapak containers containing alcoholic beverages and soft drinks. The facility also decants kegs for national distillers. Recyclable material is recovered from the shredded containers and returned to the circular economy as recovered resources via our Commodity Trading Desk.

Resource recovery

At Swanbank Renewable Energy and Waste Management Facility we recover recyclable resources including timbers, metals and aggregates. These are recovered from loads that have been separated at source, and are further sorted in Swanbank’s designated Resource Recovery Areas (RRAs) to remove contaminants and to be processed for transportation and sale. These materials re-enter the circular economy as valuable recovered resources, via our Commodity Trading Desk or local clients.

Leachate management

Landfills generate leachate – a contaminated liquid that is generated from water percolating through a solid waste disposal site.

 

Leachate management is a central part of a well-engineered landfill, and is governed by strict environmental and regulatory controls.

 

Leachate management involves the structures constructed and operated to contain, transport and treat leachate, including liners, collection pipes, detection systems, holding areas and treatment facilities.

 

Swanbank Landfill’s leachate management system is powered by our on-site renewable energy power station.

Landfill gas power generation plant

Located within our Swanbank Renewable Energy and Waste Management Facility is ReOrganic Energy Swanbank, a power generation project owned under a joint venture partnership between LMS Energy and REMONDIS.

 

Methane produced naturally here at Swanbank by the decomposition of organic waste in our landfill is captured and destroyed in the process of generating renewable energy, which is then exported to the local grid. This greenhouse-gas reducing facility generates approximately 27,000 MW hours of renewable electricity annually, enough energy to provide power to an average of 4,800 households each day. The facility was constructed in 2012 with 1.1 MW of capacity, and expanded to 1.5 MW in 2016. The facility was relocated and further expanded in 2023 – adding two new J320 Jenbacher generator modules – to achieve its current 3.3 MW capacity.
