Composts and Bulk Soil

Les Composts du Québec, a division of EnGlobe, produces and sells over 500,000 cubic yards of high-quality composts and soil every year. It is sold in bulk to horticulturists, landscape architects, landscapers and other lawn maintenance operators and groundskeepers. These products are made from composts and other materials such as sand, peat moss, top soil and other materials also used to restore degraded sites. It is used in agriculture as organic fertilizers, to control erosion or as vegetation cover or capping over former landfill sites. Some of these products are certified by the Bureau de normalisation du Québec (BNQ).

Composting offers numerous advantages. Among its benefits,composting:

  • Helps promote healthy plant growth and improves their capacity to conserve nutritional elements,
  • Contributes to reducing greenhouse gases, reduces methane gas emissions resulting from landfill and increases the soil’s capacity to capture carbon,
  • Improves soil structure, porosity and density creating a better environment for plant roots,
  • Increases heavy soil infiltration and permeability while decreasing erosion,
  • Helps water retention in sandy soils reducing water loss and leaching,
  • Enhances the multiplication of soil microorganisms,
  • Is an important source of organic matter,
  • Is a source of micro-organisms beneficial to the soil,
  • Improves and regulates the soil's pH (acidity).

Organic Fertilizers and Residual Materials Fertilizer Mix (RMF)

Biogénie is committed to research and development of innovative solutions, and the expertise of our professionals has helped us become one of Québec’s leaders in agricultural fertilizers.

Residual organic matter used on agricultural lands helps maintain and improve crops as well as enrich the soil. This also allows farmers avoid using chemical fertilizers.

In cooperation with our clients, Biogénie supplies crude or raw organic matter to farmers and develops fertilizers made from residual organic waste to enhance and help plant growth. These mixes for agricultural use are made from various waste matter: composts, ashes, pulp and paper mill sludge, pasteurized municipal biosolids mixed with lime residuals or digestor sludge resulting from anaerobic digestion, all in compliance with environmental regulations.

The fertilizers we provide to farmers meet the requirements of the Guide sur la valorisation des matières résiduelles fertilisantes of the Ministère du Développement durable, de lEnvironnement et des Parcs (MDDEP).Their lime-washing properties and organic matter composition varies, based on the data obtained from our experts’ analyses.

Biofuels (Biomass)

With the help of their unique biodrying process, Biogénie supplies institutional and industrial clients with an urban-generated biomass that is a cost-efficient alternative to some biofuels. Boilers that run on natural gas or oil can now be converted to create energy from biomass, a renewable resource. This allows organic matter to return its natural state (water, CO2 and minerals) in the environment. In addition, biofuels are more cost-efficient than oil and natural gas. Biogénie can help clients make the transition from fossil fuels to a greener and more cost-efficient energy source, thereby reducing greenhouse gases.

Biogas

Treating solid or liquid organic matter through anaerobic digestion produces biogas with a more or less energetic potential, depending on which organic materials are used.

Among other uses, biogas can:

  • Be used for heating and air conditioning,
  • Produce electricity by activating a motor or small turbine,
  • Be transformed into biofuels as liquefied natural gas (LNG) and replace natural gas in vehicles and motors adapted to this fuel,
  • Be fed into the natural gas distribution network further to additional treatment.
