But this has already started to change in Africa.
I was very glad to join efforts with my friend Mario Russo (the actual leader of the initiative) and other friends worldwide for the first ISWA event in Africa.
Lobito, a beautiful city of the Benguela Province of Angola hosts the first International AFRICA Sustainable Waste Management Conference, an event organized by ISWA together with APESB (Association of Portuguese Sanitary and Environmental Engineering) and CPLP (Community of Portuguese Language Countries) with the high sponsorship of the government of Angola. It is the first time that an event in this field is organized by ISWA in Africa. It is an opportunity to share experiences with African technicians and decision makers helping them to search out for appropriated solutions for various and specific cultural, finance and technological contexts.
Angola is one of the
most important countries of Africa located on the West coast of Southern
Africa. It extends over an area of 1 246 700 Km2.
The economy of
Angola is based in oil production. In fact, this sector makes up over 90% of
the Country’s exports. Angola is currently the second oil producer of Africa
with 1.8 million b/d output, and it is expected that by next year it will
overtake Nigeria, with a current output of 2.3 million b/d. Second to oil,
diamonds are Angola’s main export product. The country is growing up more than
7% per year and many investments are announced by government in the waste
sector, sanitation and construction sector.
Join us for this interesting event, definitely you will meet very interesting people and a state - of the - art scientific program. For more details please visit the conference's web-site Africa Sustainable Waste Management Conference

Pyrolysis, unlike incineration, allows for waste destruction in an oxygen-free atmosphere, making this system highly efficient with no harmful substances remaining, either in the atmosphere or as a residue.

I found this blog rather interesting. The details and precise suggestions are precisely what I was hoping to find.
