The study was successful and secured a new disposal method for spent stone wool (i.e., rockwool), vines, and other organic greenhouse waste infected with the virus.

Key Points: 
  • The study was successful and secured a new disposal method for spent stone wool (i.e., rockwool), vines, and other organic greenhouse waste infected with the virus.
  • However, Walker's results demonstrate that greenhouse waste infected with ToBRFV can be safely composted and diverted from landfills.
  • This could mean more than ~35,000 tonnes (MT) of compostable waste can be recovered and safely reused each year.
  • "This discovery will take the pressure off the province's waste management infrastructure by inserting thousands of tonnes of recycled compost waste back into the circular economy and out of landfills."
