Lebanon: The notorious Sidon waste dump is finally doing the city some good, as the inauguration of a new treatment plant will use methane gas emitted from the waste to generate electricity for residents.
With the recent activation of a solid waste treatment facility in the region of Siniq, solid waste accumulated in the city and its surroundings is being used to produce methane gas, which in turn is used to produce electricity.
The electricity produced is more than enough to operate the plant, and is also being used to light the streets of the surrounding neighborhoods.
As the facility increases its productivity, the quantity of generated electrical power will also increase.
The Sidon Municipality and the IBC company, which is operating the solid waste treatment plant, began channeling power to the streets in the surrounding neighborhoods this week.
