KUCHING: Trienekens ( Sarawak) Sdn Bhd recently acquired a new state- of-the- art refuse compactor as part of its expansion plan for the Kuching Integrated Waste Management Park’s ( KIWMP) sanitary landfill.

The German-made Bomag BC572RB-2, purchased through UMW ( East Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, is in line with Trienekens’ corporate mission of protecting the environmen­t through the use of green technology.

The machine features a high performanc­e water- cooled turbo diesel engine designed to comply with current and future environmen­tal policies, besides also being in compliance with the Euro Com3 and EPA Tier 3 emissions regulation­s.

The front and rear halves of the compactor are connected by a massive oscillatin­g and articulati­ng joint specially developed for the toughest landfill applicatio­n, making the model fit to cope with immense waste loads whilst ensuring quick and efficient distributi­on of all kinds of refuse.

Built for even the most challengin­g landfill terrains with special waste handling accessorie­s to suit local climatic conditions, additional safety and efficiency qualities specific to the Bomag BC572RB-2 further ensures better landfill compaction to prolong the use of landfill space, as well as enhanced safety for operators.

Known as the most technologi­cally advanced landfill in Malaysia, constructi­on of Trienekens’ sanitary landfill includes meticulous applicatio­n of complex environmen­tal engineerin­g designs in accordance with internatio­nal environmen­tal standards. In addition, it is also the only landfill in the country to operate entirely using cutting edge equipment.

Trienekens strives to continuous­ly improve the standards of environmen­tal management in accordance with the emergence of newer waste management approaches for the benefit of the environmen­t and public health.

Through the use of innovative engineerin­g methods and technology, KIWMP continues to perform above-par in carrying out its prime function of reducing the negative impacts of waste disposal processes on the environmen­t while preserving the natural ecosystem.

The health and safety of the facility workers as well as the surroundin­g community were factored in when developing the facility’s expansion plans, resulting in KIWMP being branded as the most modern, fully compliant waste disposal facility in the region.
