The waste treatment unit in Menzel Bouzelfa, Nabeul, is nearing completion with a processing capacity of 1,200 m³/hour. Set to begin operations in August, this facility will capture methane from the landfill, reducing CO₂ emissions by approximately 100,000 tons per year.
The extracted methane, estimated at over 5 million m³ annually, is projected to produce around 18 million kWh of green electricity, sufficient for 5,000 to 6,000 households. The initiative highlights the potential for waste-to-energy technologies in Tunisia, especially with an upcoming decree on non-hazardous waste fuels that could attract private sector investments.
