Launch of Rwanda's First-Ever Municipal Waste Valorization Facilities 

The Ministry of Environment and Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) have today inaugurated Rwanda’s first-ever municipal waste valorisation facilities at Nduba dumpsite. The facilities consist of significant equipment and infrastructure built as part of the transformative project titled ‘Waste to Resources Project: "Improving Municipal Solid and Hazardous Waste Management in Rwanda" that commenced in July 2021.
With funding from the Ministry of Environment, Climate and Biodiversity of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, this initiative marks a significant step forward in Rwanda's journey towards sustainable waste management and a circular economy. Among the newly inaugurated infrastructure are:
- Waste Sorting and Separation Facility: Capable of handling 100 tons per day, this facility will significantly improve the efficiency of waste management by enhancing the sorting and separation process at the dumpsite.
- Bio-Waste Treatment Facility: With a capacity to treat five tons per day, this facility will convert organic waste into organic fertilizers.
- Truck Weighbridge: This vital infrastructure with a capacity to handle 60 tons will ensure accurate measurement and management of waste volumes entering Nduba.
