SOCAR, US firm sign up for waste recycling project

Azerbaijan’s state energy firm SOCAR and US MI LLC company signed in Baku on Thursday a contract to prepare a feasibility study for the reconstruction of SOCAR's waste recycling centre and establish a waste management system.
The document was signed by SOCAR Vice-President on environmental issues Soltan Aliyev, and MI Vice-President Sven Maikranz.
The feasibility study will be prepared within six months, after which SOCAR will independently carry out operations on overhauling the center.
While developing the feasibility study, experts will choose appropriate technologies for waste processing depending on the amount of waste accumulated as a result of operating SOCAR's enterprises.
Maikranz told the signing ceremony that the focus will be not on waste recycling, but on its re-processing.
Operations under the project are being carried out under the $572,000 grant agreement signed by SOCAR and US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA).*
