What İZAYDAŞ does

İZAYDAŞ is a Turkish municipal waste-management enterprise wholly owned by the Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipality, founded in 1996 as part of the Izmit Integrated Environmental Project. It operates an integrated waste management infrastructure spanning hazardous waste incineration, medical waste sterilization and incineration, sanitary landfilling of municipal waste, biogas and landfill gas energy production, hydroelectric generation, and maritime waste reception and sea-surface cleaning, all centered on facilities in İzmit and Derince (Kocaeli Province). The company holds Turkey's first and largest licensed hazardous waste incineration plant (35,000–36,500 tonnes/year capacity with a 5.2 MW turbine) and a TÜRKAK-accredited environmental analysis laboratory; it has cumulatively disposed waste for 23,112 customers and generated 964 million kWh of electricity over 28 years of operation.

İZAYDAŞ serves five primary customer verticals: industrial facilities in organized industrial zones (hazardous waste incineration, storage, waste-derived fuel), healthcare providers (medical waste sterilization at 150°C/4 bar for 45 minutes and incineration), district municipalities (2,000 tonnes/day sanitary landfill, leachate and landfill gas management), shipping operators in İzmit Bay (MARPOL-compliant bilge water, sludge, and garbage reception across 41 port operators), and external laboratories (accredited analytical and proficiency-testing services under ISO/IEC 17025 and 17043). Its proprietary technology portfolio includes autoclave sterilization, anaerobic digestion with cogeneration, membrane bioreactor and nanofiltration wastewater treatment, and waste-derived fuel (ATY) production launched in 2022.

Revenue is generated through transaction-based waste disposal fees, energy sales, laboratory analysis fees, and competency-testing service fees; pricing is quote-based for waste services with published price lists for laboratory work. Distribution combines direct field sales, a call center, an online application portal with e-payment, a 24/7 sample collection fleet, and physical reception points at the central facility and Derince marine terminal. As a government state entity rather than a venture-backed company, İZAYDAŞ has no disclosed external shareholders, no funding history, and no M&A activity; financial figures are not publicly reported.
