​(News Portal – Dong Nai) - On the afternoon of March 29, Vice Chairman of the Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee, Vo Van Phi, held a meeting with Asia New Generation Company Limited (based in Ho Chi Minh City) to discuss the investment plan for a waste-to-energy project in Xuan Loc district.  

Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Vo Van Phi spoke at the working session 

During the meeting, Mr. Willy Andreas Kirsch, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the company, expressed their interest in investing in an environmental project in Dong Nai. After conducting research, the company proposed implementing the project at the Cu Lao Xanh Waste Treatment Complex in Xuan Tam commune, Xuan Loc district. The project utilizes advanced waste treatment technology from Germany, specifically thermal decomposition technology. The waste does not require sorting and direct incineration, but is processed through gasification, thereby minimizing gas emissions and generating electricity ranging from 1.2 to 1.8 MWh per ton of waste.

The provincial leadership suggested that the company hire consultants to facilitate the necessary procedures for adjusting the investment plan, revising the master plan, conducting environmental impact assessments, and evaluating the technology. Once the specific documents are prepared, the relevant departments and agencies of the province will closely monitor and provide support for the project implementation.
