At the moment, Saudi Arabia is producing 53 million tons of waste every year; but this figure is expected to reach 106 million tons in 2023.  About half of this waste is coming fr om the metropolitan cities of Riyadh, Dammam and Jeddah. Saudi Arabia has worked a plan for reducing the impact of this problem. The waste will be directed to recycling plants and waste to energy plants to reduce the amount of landfill. It estimates that Saudi Arabia will require over 1,300 treatment facilities and landfills to treat 106 million tons of waste.

This month «Eco- Spectrum» has shipped two incinerators to Saudi Arabia; HURIKAN 150 in a container and a standard VOLKAN 150. The HURIKAN150 incinerator is also complemented by an automatic waste loading system and a liquid waste supply system.
