Zero Hazardous Waste to Landfill
CROWN STEELMOULD BSC (C) ensures Zero Hazardous waste to a landfill site in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Responsible and effective incineration has become an expectation from our customers, environmental authorities, and interested parties. The sustainability efforts such as diversion of the landfill into incineration is an important step to demonstrate environmental stewardship. CROWN STEELMOULD BSC (C) contributes and assists to ensure the Bahrain land is pollution-free by preventing hazardous waste sent to a landfill site.
Salvage and Recycling
Recyclable items such as iron, steel, strapping, plastic packaging, drums, containers, wooden pallets are recovered for reuse and recycling. Zero Waste to Landfill program results in not only efficiency in incineration processes but also saves physical and financial resources through conservation efforts and reuse of raw materials. By recycling waste, we assist to save the environment. To help reduce the impact of carbon emissions recycling become significant.
Benefits of Incineration
Landfills are a source of greenhouse gasses. Biogas from these dumpsites contains about 46 percent carbon dioxide and 54 percent methane. In addition, about 11 percent of methane gas produced by humans comes from trash. Advance incineration facilities reduce contaminants coming from discarded and dumped solid waste materials. The bottom ash residues produced as a byproduct of incinerating solid waste materials are relatively non-hazardous waste, provided they underwent proper treatment. These residues could be safely put into landfills or upcycled as a construction aggregate. The advantages of waste incineration include elimination or reduction of landfills due to a reduction of waste volume, alternative energy sources through waste-to-energy conversion, extraction of metals and other materials for recycling, better recycling, and upcycling practices, and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions such as methane using proper technologies.
Sustainability
Incineration has a place to co-exist with recycling as it can provide the hygienic treatment of the remaining waste that is not suitable for sustainable recycling, and at the same time generate energy from it, rather than it being sent to a landfill. Recycling and Incineration are complementary to achieve lower landfill rates.
