Namibia: Environment minister Pohamba Shifeta has inaugurated Namibia’s first solid recovered waste plant in Windhoek. The US$15.7m unit is a joint-venture between local company Rent-A-Drum and Ohorongo Cement, a subsidiary of Germany’s Schwenk Zement, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Rent-A-Drum will collect more than 12,000t of non-recyclable waste material that will be converted into alternative fuel for use by Ohorongo Cement. The waste plant has created 60 jobs.
