Who We are
Receive And Process Municipal Solid Waste
In An Environmentally Friendly And Sustainable Manner
Our Story
Today, approximately 600 metric tons per day of municipal solid waste is received at the plant for sorting to produce organic compost. By this, the plant is currently taking up approximately 50% of the total waste lifted and transported from the source that would have otherwise ended up on the landfill.
By our composting processes we have been able to save the environment from heavy greenhouse gas emissions as predominantly the case on landfills. Accra Compost & Recycling Plant is also the first company in Ghana to qualify for the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) claims on carbon credits.
The plant is currently providing jobs to over 300 staffs for sorting and composting plants in Accra and also looking forward to investing further in the recycling segment to add value to recovered plastics especially.
Parts of the recovered plastic that are not used by the local industry like Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is exported to China and Malaysia for the production of textiles, film, carpets etc.
OUR PROCESSES
Our operations involve material recovery, energy recovery and treatment.
Organic fractions and other recyclable materials from municipal solid waste is carefully sorted and separated through manual and mechanical sorting systems. The organic fractions are decomposed naturally over a period into compost whilst the recovered recyclables are further treated and made available to respective industries such as the steel works, plastic manufacturing and paper companies for further production.
Our products are subjected to rigorous tests to meet regulatory requirement, both international and local.
We’re reaching new mile stones and we appreciate the continued support from everyone!
