We all participated in the ‘Best Out of Waste’ game while growing up. Little did we know that it would be the need of the hour someday! Sharjah Waste To Energy Plant in the Middle East was inaugurated about a year ago. It has achieved many feats in this period. The recent achievement of this UAE firm is that it has processed 1,00,000 tonnes of waste, which can power over 2000 homes for a year.
UAE Firm Processes Waste To Generate Power
Sharjah Waste To Energy Plant in the Middle East has been an integral part of the Sharjah electrical grid.
The United Arab Emirates is currently confronted with a problem in which approximately 60% of its greenhouse gas emissions are caused by the decomposition of household and industrial waste in landfills.
Since its inception, the waste-to-energy plant has processed more than 100,000 tonnes of waste. This is equivalent to the waste generated by 180,000 people per year, resulting in the recovery of more than 250 tonnes of valuable metals during its operational phase.
Sharjah has reached an extraordinary milestone in its ongoing journey towards a zero-waste-to-landfill goal, with a waste diversion rate of 90 percent.

These companies, together, are setting an example for clean energy production and sustainable waste management.
Group CEO of BEEAH Group, Khaled Al Huraimel said that they have created a new record for the Middle East by achieving 90 percent landfill waste diversion. This plant not only shows how clean energy can help meet energy demand, but also helps recover valuable material. This also helps to tackle the rising challenge of waste in various cities across the Middle East. (By Mechanical Electrical Plumbing Middle East)
