HomeWaste Disposal Brisbane: Our Brisbane Facility

Waste Disposal Brisbane

Welcome to Ace Waste’s Brisbane waste disposal facility!

Located in the charming suburb of Willawong, Ace Waste’s Brisbane waste disposal facility was the first of its kind in Australia. After several years of research and planning, this state-of-the-art incineration plant was designed and commissioned in 1993, officially opening in October of that year.

This facility not only represented a breakthrough in waste management in Brisbane, but also set a new benchmark for the national waste industry. It achieved this feat through the utilisation of our cutting-edge, high-temperature incineration technology.

Ace Waste proudly leads the market by providing comprehensive disposal solutions for all types of waste streams. Discover the difference Ace Waste can make for your business by requesting a waste audit or exploring our clinical waste solutions below.

Sustainable Waste Management Brisbane

At our Willawong site, the on-site primary chamber incinerates waste at temperatures between 800° Celsius and 1000° Celsius, with secondary combustion ranging from between 1000° Celcius to 1250° Celsius. Using this process, complete destruction of your waste is assured.

This provides a significant point of difference for Ace Waste’s incineration plants. Not only in the way they can destroy waste permanently (helping deter it from winding up in landfill), but in the way they reuse the inherent heat energy in clinical and related wastes as an energy source. This promotes and maintains a self-sufficient operation.

It was designed and commissioned in 1993. It is still going strong today, having safely treated and destroyed a massive amount of waste from a wide range of sources. That figure is fast approaching 200,00 tonnes and counting!

Clinical Waste Disposal Brisbane
Our Brisbane waste depot and incineration plant, is able to treat and dispose of many waste types. Also known as “medical waste”, clinical waste refers to waste items, by-products and remnants that have the potential to cause disease, typically arising from medical/clinical settings.
Clinical waste/medical waste disposal types include:
- Pharmaceutical waste products
- Discarded sharps
- Cytotoxic drugs
- Human tissue waste
- Laboratory waste
- Radioactive substances

Regulated and Compliant Waste Disposal Option
Ace Waste’s facilities provide a safe and secure option for waste disposal by adhering to regulatory frameworks. Our Brisbane collection and disposal services are licenced in Queensland by the Department of Environment and Science.
There are many benefits to this for any business or organisation. We can help you avoid hefty penalties that can come with non-compliance.

Converting Waste into Energy
Ace Waste’s facilities can harness energy from the incineration process itself. This is different from other incineration plants, which need natural gas to maintain operations.
This means less reliance on fossil fuels and external inputs, making the plant’s operation more environmentally sustainable. Thus, we are able to ensure a sustainable and cost-effective solution for your waste disposal requirements.
