We work towards a better world

Circular and safe

We work on a healthy environment in which humans and nature are in balance.

We develop practical solutions for safe and circular management of wastewater and organic waste streams, together with our clients.

We conduct applied research and provide advice on the treatment of waste streams and recovery of valuable resources.

Who we are

LeAF BV is an independent research and consulting organization. We leverage our knowledge, expertise and research facilities to recover and safely reuse water, energy, nutrients and other valuable resources from solid and liquid waste streams. We ensure that remaining (secondary) waste streams are treated and purified to guarantee their safe discharge into the environment. Through these efforts, we contribute to the improvement of our society.

Founded and headquartered at the department of Environmental Technology (ETE) of Wageningen University & Research (WUR), we have access to a wide range of up-to-date knowledge, expertise, and research facilities in the fields of sustainability, (bio-based) technology, circularity and the environment.

Our expertise consists not only of our extensive knowledge, but also our ability to connect and our drive to help you. Where necessary, we collaborate with other organizations within our extensive network. We translate visions or ambitions into practical solutions based on experience. In doing so, we consider the technological, economic, legal, and environmental factors that influence your situation. Our approach is based on the principle that each situation requires a customized solution, with clear goals and constraints as the starting point.
