The World of Recycling Partners with Ministry of Industry and Minerals to Launch Iraq’s First Electronic Waste Recycling Plant

The World of Recycling Company, a proud member of the SB Holding Group, has announced the signing of a landmark 25-year partnership contract with the Ministry of Industry and Minerals. Represented by the General Company for Electrical and Electronic Industries, this agreement marks the inception of Iraq’s very first electronic and electrical waste recycling plant. This pioneering project is set to play a pivotal role in promoting sustainable development and addressing the pressing issue of electronic waste in Iraq.

This state-of-the-art recycling facility will be dedicated to processing a wide array of electronic and electrical waste, including obsolete computers, mobile phones, household appliances, and industrial equipment. The initiative aims to mitigate the environmental and health hazards associated with improper disposal of e-waste, thereby contributing to a cleaner and greener Iraq.

The General Company for Electrical and Electronic Industries, represented by its General Manager, Sufian Al-Jubouri, also underscored the importance of this initiative. He commented:

This collaboration is a testament to our commitment to sustainable development and environmental protection. By working together with The World of Recycling Company, we are taking a proactive approach to managing electronic waste and promoting the reuse of valuable materials. This project will set a new standard for waste management in Iraq and serve as a model for future initiatives.

Salar Bazrgan, the CEO & Chairman of The World of Recycling, expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating: 

“This partnership marks a significant milestone in our mission to promote sustainability and environmental responsibility. By establishing Iraq’s first electronic waste recycling plant, we are not only addressing a critical environmental issue but also fostering economic growth and job creation. We are committed to implementing cutting-edge technologies to ensure efficient and eco-friendly recycling processes.”

The new recycling plant will incorporate advanced recycling technologies designed to maximize the recovery of valuable materials such as metals, plastics, and glass. These materials can then be reused in the production of new electronic devices, thereby reducing the need for virgin resources and minimizing the environmental footprint of electronic waste.

In addition to its environmental benefits, the establishment of the recycling plant is expected to create numerous job opportunities in the region. The project will require skilled labor for the operation and maintenance of the facility, as well as professionals in areas such as logistics, data management, and environmental health and safety.

The World of Recycling Company and the Ministry of Industry and Minerals are committed to ensuring the successful implementation and operation of this recycling plant. Their collaborative efforts aim to set a benchmark for electronic waste management in Iraq and inspire similar initiatives across the region.

This partnership not only represents a significant step forward in Iraq’s environmental efforts but also highlights the country’s dedication to adopting sustainable practices. By addressing the challenges posed by electronic waste through innovative solutions, Iraq is poised to become a leader in sustainable waste management, paving the way for a cleaner, greener future.

In conclusion, the signing of this partnership contract between The World of Recycling Company and the Ministry of Industry and Minerals is a momentous occasion that promises to bring about significant positive changes for Iraq’s environment and economy. With the support of both public and private sectors, this initiative is set to transform electronic waste management in the country and contribute to a more sustainable future for all.
