GMVA Gemeinschafts-Müll-Verbrennungsanlage Niederrhein

Highly efficient, cutting-edge technology

GMVA stands out from the crowd thanks to its state-of-the-art incineration technology and its exemplary emission values. Right from the moment it was established in 1972, the plant has been continuously extended and adapted to ensure the technology it uses reflects the latest developments. We can, therefore, quite rightly talk of a modern and environmentally friendly plant with emission values that are well below the legal limits.

    Plant tours
