Kuwait Cement Co has proposed an initiative for the government to co-process municipal solid waste (MSW) at its plant in eastern Shuaiba to ease the issue of growing waste in the country. Meshal Al-Rashed, executive vice-chairman of Kuwait Cement Co, has requested the chairman of the municipal council to present the company’s solution to the Environment Committee, according to Al-Qabas.

Mr Al-Rashed noted that the company is the only one in the country with the facilities to burn MSW in a manner that meets environmental safety specifications.
