Keppel Infrastructure Holdings and China Harbour Engineering Co., through their respective subsidiaries, Keppel Seghers Hong Kong Limited (Keppel Seghers HK) and Zhen Hua Engineering Co. have been awarded a $4 billion contract for Hong Kong’s first integrated Waste Management Facility.
The facility will be built on a reclaimed island off the coast of Shek Kwu Chau, located south of Lantau Island.
The firms have secured the project to design, build and operate an Integrated Waste Management Facility (IWMF) off the coast of Shek Kwu Chau, which is to the south of Lantau Island, Hong Kong.
A key part of Hong Kong’s waste management strategy, it is able to reduce the total volume of waste treated at the facility by more than 90 percent, thus extending the lifespan of landfills. It will be able to treat about 3,000 tonnes per day of mixed municipal solid waste.
The WTE Plant will also use Keppel Seghers’ flue gas cleaning system, ensuring that the plant’s emissions will comply with Hong Kong and EU standards.
