The Dubai-based Al Rostamani Group has launched Emirates Recycling LLC, which is dedicated to the recycling and recovery of the city’s construction and demolition debris.

The Emirates Recycling plant will have the capacity to convert the more than 8 million tons of construction material generated in Dubai per year into usable road and construction base aggregate. According to a press release from the Al Rostamani Group, the facility will be fully operational by September 2007.

Hussain Nasser Lootah, acting director general of Dubai Municipality, says the city handled 10.5 million tons of C&D debris in 2006. C&D material makes up 75 percent of the total waste generated in Dubai every year, he adds.

The plant will be located some 20 meters below the surface to minimize noise and dust pollution. In addition to crushers, power screeners and other technology, the plant will also be equipped with external dust suppression units and mobile units in addition to the stationary plant.
