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.

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.

WASTE TO ENERGY: IMPLEMENTING CONVERSION TECHNOLOGIES
Bee’ah’s strategic plan focuses on diverting waste from landfill
and increasing the diversion rates from 62% to 100% in three
phases:
① Enhance the current operations and technical capabilities of current
facilities.

levels to 65-70%
③ Waste to Energy program (WTE) instead of the Landfill making
diversion 100%.
