Befesa Medio Ambiente, S.A.
 PROFILE
Befesa Medio Ambiente has been recycled from its former life as a venture of German recycler BUS to start a new life as a unit of Abengoa. Spanish engineering and process management group Abengoa owns more than 90% of Befesa. Befesa processes about 500,000 tons of industrial waste a year at 30 recycling plants in Spain and in Argentina, Russia, the UK, and Ukraine. Befesa recycles aluminum, zinc residues and steelworks dust, nonferrous metals, plastics, used oils, and other industrial wastes. It has acquired, from Avon Group Holding, the only aluminum recycling plant in the UK that processes aluminum and saline dregs. Befesa and a unit of Groupo Dragados plan to merge their waste oil operations in a joint venture.
