Dubai: Up to 20 tonnes of municipal waste is diverted from landfills daily, thanks to a
strategic sustainable waste management project launched by the Dubai Municipality in
the Hatta region in collaboration with Imdaad.

Part of the "Zero Waste in Hatta" campaign, the project includes an advanced
segregation facility at the Hatta landfill, transferring treatable waste to specialized units.

The project covers outsourcing waste collection, transportation, and recycling services
and seeks to bolster the municipality's operations through stronger partnerships with the
private sector.

Its primary goal: divert various kinds of waste from landfills, thereby enhancing
sustainable waste management services in Hatta.
