Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Management
MSW is one of the major problems facing urban cities. Old methods of land filling and incineration are being abandoned due to their negative impact on the environment whereas land filling contributes to the condemnation of land, and the production of biogas and leachates that affect the quality of air, soil, and water resource. The various conventional methods adopted for the disposal and management of wastewater and MSW worldwide have failed the test of time as they interfered with the process of nature. They have proved to be pricey and damaging to the environment. The biodegradability characteristic of the organic component of wastewater and MSW are the essential elements for the modern methods for the Management of Wastewater and Municipal Solid Waste.IBC services include the following aspects of Waste Management:

Integrated Resource and Energy Concept:
IBC provides a total solution for MSW and sponsors projects that separate the MSW in their components. Organic components are treated biologically via either aerobic or anaerobic bio-conversion depending on the quality of the waste. Through these processes, organic fertilizer and electrical energy are produced. Other non-organic components such as plastic, paper, glass and metals are recycled to be made useful in the civil community. The aim of IBC is to reach a point of `almost zero landfill`!
In addition to the biodegradation of the organic matter coming from MSW, IBC encourages the biodegradation of sludge originating from wastewater treatment. This solves the problem of many cities that produce sludge and are not allowed to use it without undertaking an expensive 5-year treatment.
