- Clean Earth Acquisitions Corp operates as a specialty waste management company in the United States, providing comprehensive environmental services including hazardous and non-hazardous waste treatment, disposal, recycling, remediation, and beneficial reuse of contaminated soil, dredged material, pharmaceuticals, aerosols, electronics, and universal waste. The company serves diverse industries including retail, healthcare, chemical, industrial, commercial, and infrastructure markets. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in the U.S., Clean Earth has developed a nationwide operational footprint with over 82 locations, including 19 EPA-permitted Treatment, Storage and Disposal Facilities (TSDFs) and more than 700 operating permits.
Recently, Clean Earth was acquired by Veolia Environnement in a transformative $3 billion deal completed in 2025, which significantly enhances Veolia's U.S. hazardous waste capabilities by doubling its footprint and creating the second-largest player in the sector. This acquisition aligns with Veolia's GreenUp strategic program focused on growth and sustainability and expands Veolia’s advanced technical capabilities and treatment technologies, including PFAS treatment and new contaminants. The acquisition also strengthens Veolia's market presence across underserved U.S. regions such as the Southeast and Pacific Northwest, augmenting logistics efficiency through an expanded nationwide platform.
Earlier, Clean Earth had been involved in a business combination agreement with Alternus Energy Group plc, targeting a reverse merger transaction intended to position Clean Earth within the clean energy ecosystem, including carbon, hydrogen, sustainable agriculture, and renewable energy, but the recent acquisition by Veolia has superseded that path.
Clean Earth’s product and service portfolio emphasizes a one-source, full-service approach to multiple waste streams for clients, leveraging its extensive TSDF network for customized, sustainable waste management solutions. The company’s extensive operating permits and strategic acquisitions have propelled revenue growth and positioned it as a leading environmental services provider focused on sustainable and compliant waste minimization nationwide.
Through this recent acquisition and operational scale, Clean Earth continues to advance in the specialty waste sector, expanding treatment capabilities and reinforcing its commitment to environmental responsibility and customer-centric service delivery across the United States.
