A solid waste treatment complex worth 16 million EUR (21.6 million USD) came into operation on September 20 in the southern province of Binh Duong.
The waste treatment complex was funded by domestic capital (57.24%) and the Finland’s ODA (42.76%).
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Bui Cach Tuyen said Binh Duong waste treatment complex will reduce land-fill volume, produce environmentally friendly goods to save natural resources.
Finland’s Ambassador Kimmo Lahdevirta to Vietnam was also present at the event.
The Binh Duong waste treatment complex in Ben Cat District has two main areas - a domestic-waste treatment area where the solid waste is treated and recycled into compost with a daily capacity of 420 tonnes, and an industrial leaching treatment plant with a capacity of 480 cubic metres per hour.
The industrial and hazardous treatment area in the complex is designed to incinerate 500 tonnes of industrial solid waste per day.
Binh Duong is currently located 28 industrial zones and has the population growth rate of 10% per year, therefore increasing the need for treating domestic and hazardous industrial wastes.-VNA
