WHO WE ARE?


OUR VISION

TO BE THE LEADING ENVIRONMENTAL PARTNER

IN THE MIDDLE EAST


TODAY, every resident of the UAE produces an average of 2.5 kg of waste a day, which amounts to 2,500,000 Kg of solid waste daily in Sharjah alone.

Compare that to:

0.5 kg/person/day in India 0.8 kg/person/day in Malaysia 0.85 kg/person/day in Beijing 1.14 kg/person/day in Nova Scotia, Canada 1.23 kg/person/day in Turkey 2.0 kg/person/day in Ontario, Canada 2.53 kg/person/day in California, USA

60% of that waste can be Recycled!

OCC Collection & Recycling Solutions PROVIDING THE INFRASTRUCTURE TO ENABLE SOURCE SEGREGATION

• In an effort to reduce its carbon footprint and operate more efficiently, Tandeef established a waste transfer station within Sharjah’s boundaries.

• The in-city transfer station allows for the gathering of the collected waste, which is then transported on 40-tonne haulage vehicles to the Waste Management Center in Al Saj’ah.

• This operation decreased the number of trips from 900 to an average of 100 trips a day.


SETUP SORTING PLANTS TO MAXIMISE RECOVERY OF MATERIALS

• Bee’ah Setup & Manages The Largest Material Recovery Facility In The Middle East & The 3rd Largest Waste Sorting Facility In The World.

• Our Facility Sorts and Separates Materials From Municipal Solid Waste, Through Manual And Automated Processes, Recovering 23 Types of Materials








TYRE RECLING FACILITY: • A world-class facility using environmental cryogenic process to recycle

used tyres with a daily capacity to process 9,000 used tyres.

• Liquid nitrogen is used to flash freeze the tyres at minus -196 degrees Celsius, which become brittle and broken down like glass, by cracker mills, into crumb granules.

• Recycled rubber is used for indoor and outdoor flooring applications, running tracks, landscaping, equestrian, roads and road asphalt.

The TRF uses a highly advanced environmental cryogenic process to recycle 9,000 used tyres per day.







CONSTRUCTION & DEMOLITION WASTE RECYCLING FACILITY: • One of the busiest facilities in the world, given the rate of construction in

the UAE.

• The facility recycles construction, demolition and land clearing debris resulting from the construction industry.

• Annual capacity of more than 350,000 tonnes.

More than 6,000 tonnes of construction waste made up of concrete, bricks, wood, insulation and asphalt, is processed daily at Bee’ah’s Construction & Demolition Waste Recycling Facility, for re-use as aggregate for roads, pavements and walkways.



LIQUID WASTE PROCESSING & RECYCLING:

• 2 lagoons form the liquid waste processing unit – one for oil and the other for liquid chemical waste.

• Haulage vehicles discharge hydrocarbon based water into the oil lagoon, where the oil will fragment from the water and skimmed, collected and resold.

• The water will then be pumped into the water lagoon and pumped into the mobile tankers for dust suppression on site.

• This is a safe and efficient solution for the use of the grey water.

Two oil lagoons and industrial waste water evaporation ponds separate oil and waste from water, which are then processed for reuse in irrigation and energy.



ORGANIC & GREEN WASTE COMPOSTING:

• The Compost plant processes organic and vegetation waste via biological degradation by microorganisms.

• This natural process breaks down organic waste into smaller organic compounds producing an earthy nutrient-rich compost that can be used in several applications – fertilizer and/or conditioner for gardening.

• In future, the Plant will incorporate new innovations and processes, and find modern ways of expanding its scope and capabilities to treat other organic wastes to meet the high quality demands of our clients.

New innovations and processes are being explored to expand the Compost Plant’s scope and facility capabilities to treat other organic wastes to meet the high quality demands of its clients.



THE CAR AND METAL SHREDDING & RECYCLING FACILITY: • Considered one of the world’s most powerful shredding machine

to date.

• It shreds old car bodies and other light metal scrap, and segregates the individual metal, glass and plastic components for recycling.

• The facility is operated on crawler tracks so that it can travel distances, weighs 44 tonnes and can shred 60 tonnes of car bodies/hour.

Considered the world’s most powerful shredding machine to date, the Car and Metal Shredding & Recycling Facility’s main purpose is the shredding of old car bodies and other light metal scrap, with the aim of segregating the individual metal, glass and plastic components for recycling.



MEDICAL WASTE PROCESSING & TREATEMENT: • Wekaya is the medical waste management division, for the safe

and compliant collection, treatment and disposal of medical waste produced by healthcare establishments in Sharjah.

• It provides the necessary transfer containers, collects them, and safely treats and disposes of the medical waste while ensuring maximum infection control and maintains accurate tracking documentation.



THE E-WASTE DISMANTLING & PROCESSING FACILITY: The E-waste Dismantling & Processing Facility provides both a secure and environmentally conscious solution for the disposal of hazardous consumer goods and counterfeits. Bee’ah collects transports and disposes of electronic products to this facility for dismantling and recycling of parts.
