Fujairah Leader Honoured for Promotion of Industrial Waste Recycling

Mabrook!

At a meeting on Wednesday 29 February 2012, H.E. Eng. Mohamed Saif Al Afkham (pictured), Director General of the Fujairah Municipality, was honoured by Mr. Michael Rees, Managing Director of Eco Cem Consulting.

Rees said that the Fujairah Municipality (under the leadership of Afkham) showed excellence in applying the highest health and safety standards in reducing industrial waste and turning this into new energy sources.

The Managing Director at Eco Cem Consulting said that his company has recycled 57,000 tons of waste in the emirate of Fujairah, turning it into alternative sources of fuel.

The company intends in the future to collect all waste from the emirate, with the cooperation of the Fujairah Municipality, and convert it into alternative fuel.

H.E. Eng. Mohamed Saif Al Afkham said that the Municipality had always sought to preserve the environment and support projects that reduce environmental waste. He commended the success of the Fujairah Municipality, guided by the wise leadership of the United Arab Emirates and its support of large environmental projects.

The meeting was attended by the Deputy Director of the Fujairah Municipality, H.E. Abdulla Al Hantoubi, a number of heads of departments and sections and Mr. Ahmad Nour, Operation Manager at Eco Cem Consult.
