The importance of waste management for projects and facilities:

Environmental studies are among the essential scientific and technical tools offered by Bee’ah, a company specializing in environmental consulting, to analyze the potential environmental impacts of development and industrial activities and propose appropriate solutions to environmental pollution. These studies fall within a comprehensive framework of environmental services, including:

  • Comply with local and international environmental regulations and avoid fines or violations by cooperating with a municipality-approved waste company.
  • Protecting the environment from pollution caused by untreated or random waste, especially in landfills or landfill sites.
  • Promote public safety and reduce health risks to workers and the surrounding community, especially when handling medical or hazardous waste.
  • Improving the organization's corporate image as an environmentally responsible and sustainable entity.
  • Utilizing resources by recycling waste and reducing operational costs.
  • Supporting sustainable development goals and reducing the carbon footprint of projects.

Organic waste treatment methods

At almaghais, we employ advanced environmental methods to treat organic waste (such as food scraps, agricultural waste, and animal waste), with the goal of reducing environmental impact and transforming this waste into useful resources, within an integrated waste management system. Our approved methods include:

conversion to organic fertilizer

We use aerobic and anaerobic composting techniques to convert organic waste into nutrient-rich natural fertilizer for use in agriculture and soil improvement, reducing the need for landfilling.

anaerobic digestion

It is a biological technology that produces bioenergy (methane gas) from the decomposition of organic waste in an oxygen-free environment, leaving an organic product that can be used as fertilizer, thus effectively supporting solutions to the organic waste problem.

Drying and heat treatment

For some types of organic waste with high moisture content, they are dried and then used as a thermal energy source or alternative fuel in some industries, to reduce reliance on traditional landfills.

Sort at source

We implement on-site organic waste sorting systems to facilitate processing and reduce contamination from mixing with other waste types, supporting waste recycling practices and reducing waste.

Safe disposal of contaminated materials within waste management

Almaghais places the utmost importance on disposing of contaminated waste as a fundamental part of its integrated waste management services. This includes waste containing harmful chemicals, organic pollutants, medical waste, or hazardous waste that requires special handling to ensure environmental and public health protection.
We rely on well-thought-out methodologies, including:

  • Accurately determine the type of contamination through inspection and analysis.
  • Classification of contaminated materials according to their hazards (flammable, toxic, radioactive, biological).
  • Use approved, closed transport containers to ensure that materials do not leak during transport or temporary storage, in accordance with the requirements of a municipally approved waste company.
  • Pre-treatment when required (e.g. chemical neutralization or special packaging).
  • Final disposal in licensed facilities in accordance with environmental standards (such as high-temperature incineration, burial in the Riyadh landfill, or sites designated for hazardous waste).

These measures help prevent pollution from spreading to the air, soil, or water, and help entities and institutions fully comply with environmental regulations and legislation in the Kingdom.
