The New Ngong Market with over 2500 traders is generating over 1 ton of waste daily and 0 waste is ending up in the #dumpsite.
 

Ngong Municipality in Kajiado County is committed to achieving a zero-waste goal by implementing our circular economy model that transforms waste into valuable resources.

Our approach in managing this municipal waste in involves;
– Utilizing organic waste for biogas, fertilizer and compost production
– Plastic and glass waste are crushed and repurposed into interlocking building blocks.
– Any waste that cannot be recycled or recovered is incinerated.

This is effectively converting commercial waste into energy systems. Through this collaboration, the county is able to leverage on our Biogas expertise and technology to effectively manage waste and generate renewable energy.

By adopting this circular economy model, Ngong Municipality in Kajiado County is not only reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills but also creating economic opportunities through the production of biogas and selling recyclable materials.

This innovative approach to waste management is a testament to our commitment and the county’s commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.
