Waste to Wealth: Transforming Trash into Renewable Energy
Introduction
Liberia generates 1,200 tons of waste daily—most of it rotting in landfills. At Zomatic Group, we see this not as trash, but as untapped potential.
The Waste Crisis
Open landfills in Monrovia contaminate groundwater and release methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Only 8% of waste is recycled.
