Since August 2009, Lafleche Environmental has been processing organic material in its multiple state-of-the-art compost facility. These facilities receive various biodegradable feedstocks and bulking agents including food scraps, food processing residues, paper/cardboard, leaf and yard waste, and other organic materials and remediate them. Due to high demand for this remediation, in 2013 the company doubled its processing capacity and now can process up to 120,000 metric tonnes of organic material annually. The resulting leachate byproduct is captured and diverted to holding ponds where it remains until processing by a wastewater treatment plant. With the help of St. Lawrence College Applied Research Department and the Environmental Science Program, Lafleche and the research team will investigate if this leachate is a potential high-end commercial speciality fertiliser, which would turn a previously waste product into a viable commercial product with a new revenue stream for the company.

自 2009 年 8 月以来，Lafleche Environmental 一直在其多个最先进的堆肥设施中处理有机材料。这些设施接收各种可生物降解的原料和填充剂，包括食物残渣、食品加工残留物、纸张/纸板、树叶和庭院废物以及其他有机材料，并对它们进行修复。由于对这种修复的需求量很大，该公司在 2013 年将处理能力增加了一倍，现在每年可以处理高达 120,000 公吨的有机材料。产生的渗滤液副产品被捕获并转移到暂存池中，直至由废水处理厂处理。在圣劳伦斯学院应用研究系和环境科学项目的帮助下，Lafleche 和研究团队将调查这种渗滤液是否是一种潜在的高端商业特种肥料，它将以前的废物变成可行的商业产品为公司带来新的收入来源。
