Waste treatment PPP project in Gush Dan

project awarded

The project comprises the design, finance, construction, operation and maintenance of a municipal biological degradable waste treatment plant, by the private sector. The plant shall receive municipal solid waste (separated at source (sorted) and mixed (unsorted)), of an aggregate input capacity of at least 1,000 tons/day, for a period of approximately twenty-nine years. At the end of the term of the project, it will be transferred to the State at no cost.The facility is designed to treat thousands of tons of home waste per year, and to help reduce the proportion of municipal waste assigned for burying. The facility's advanced technology will separate the results of recycling, such as metal, plastic, glass, and paper, while generating environmentally friendly electricity from natural gas and compost produced in biological processes from food leftovers and organic waste.
