This certification verifies that the CO2 captured is derived from sustainable biomass sources, making it the first time in the world that such a certification has been awarded for CO2 from waste incineration. The CO2 captured at Saga City\u2019s plant, which burns municipal waste to generate biomass power, is provided to nearby agricultural greenhouses and research facilities for use in crop cultivation and biological studies.
