Feasibility study Plastic Smart Cities Material Recovery Facility

About this Project
SURAT THANI, THAILAND
Waste Consulting

WWF’s Plastic Smart Cities program is an initiative to support cities and coastal areas worldwide to take bold action to stop plastic pollution. SweepSmart supported WWF Thailand with a feasibility study for a plastic Material Recovery Facility in Surat Thani.

What's great about it? 

  • The Surat Thani city had limiting existing waste management players, so creative solutions had to be found to start a movement there.
  • The Surat Thani mayor was very interested to implement solutions to implement a source-segregated waste management system.
