Handling garbage with internal technology - ever?

Although being recognized as a pioneer in the field of waste treatment by effective domestic technology, Thuy Phuong factory (Thua Thien - Hue) has not been able to disseminate technology so far.

Transporting organic fertilizer for consumption

On the inauguration of Thuy Phuong factory, Thua Thien-Hue had impressive performances that made many environmental managers breathe.

The huge pile of rubbish piled up in a truck carrying it back and forth, rushing into a conveyor belt, crawling into a hand-assembled machine and then sorting out the plastic and scrap metal.

Next, a plastic clean-up machine gives out drain pipes, formwork, and plastic beads.Another machine swallowed 'excess rice soup' to produce fine humus soil to touch the hand.Yet, after more than half a year of operation, the factory still complained despite being recognized by many local and central agencies in terms of technology.The support that promises frantic initially does not see.

Garbage factory does not smell, not flies

The path to Thuy Phuong garbage factory (TP) is green and shiny, the center of Hue is dazzling and sunny with the lightness of Da Lat.

In the middle of a large factory filled with rubber tubes a few dozen meters long, a machine is plying the plastic, then spraying it on the other end of a similar tube long enough if it is not blocked by the wall. .These machines are mainly designed by engineering engineers in the factory.

'Rough rough shaggy but running strong and durable.The French machine has been running for a few days and has been wrapped in plastic, tightly wrapped in plastic. '- Mr. Vu Vinh Phu, author of many hand-crafted machines has just called the French chopping, chopping and sorting machines. Throw away, just say.

Nearby are dozens of sacks containing recycled plastic beads, which are round and round beads, black like coffee.Deer-covered workers like the hunter ninja put the organic fertilizer on the truck and hand it to the neighboring localities.

'Salary from 700,000 VND - 800,000 VND / person, lunch again', a small worker after a piece of cloth covering her face.

Such a sunny lunch did not smell anything from the pile of garbage waiting to be loaded on the conveyor belt.In the afternoon, workers ate in the cafeteria were a part of the recycling workshop.Three thousand dong per serving of eggs, vegetables, bean sprouts and rim meat.The tray of plastic food covered with clean and fragrant look.I don't have any flies.

'No garbage factory dares to be a restaurant due to problems with garbage and flies', Mr. Nguyen Xuan Lang, technical advisor, proudly said while taking guests to discover the 'holy water' to remove odors for garbage.It was a blue-green water, contained in a large tank with aeration, cool aroma, sweet as a syrup!

Mr. Lang said this is a microorganism breeding and breeding tank brought by Prof. Nguyen Lan Dung at Hanoi National University.The 'original' of this microbe is being kept and nurtured by biologists at Hanoi National University.With microbial inoculants, waste will decompose, quickly create humus and lose odors.

Doing a bustling and refined business, Mr. Tran Dinh Quyen, the factory director, complained: 'It is very sluggish'.

Promise it

- Thuy Phuong factory was inaugurated on March 26, 2005 with 100% internal technology equipment line.Until now, the factory recycles waste into micro-organic fertilizer products, micro organic humus, drainage pipes, pepper stalks, dragon fruit stalks, etc. The burial section only accounts for less than 10%.

- In November 2004, the Politburo issued Resolution 41-NQ / TW on environmental protection, in which 'priority is to reuse, recycle waste, minimize burial of landfills'.

- The State still has to spend VND 300,000 to bury and transport a ton of garbage to the burial site.Accordingly, the national budget must spend VND 15,000 billion per year.Worse, only 13/64 provinces have sanitary landfills.

The rest is natural or open.The stench, leachate from huge burial sites that remained for decades made endless songs about soil, water and air pollution.Rubbish also 'swallowed' 5,000 hectares of land each year.

In Document No. 1535 / UBND-CN dated June 7, 2005, sent to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Thua Thien - Hue Provincial People's Committee acknowledges the ASC's Social Security technology 'is an appropriate technological line. with the treatment of unclassified waste in our country . should be widely applied ', and promised' to coordinate closely with ministries and sectors to facilitate the company to improve technology and replicate tissue form…'.

Many central and local dignitaries signed the memorial into the giant sewer pipe made of recycled plastic the day the factory was opened.

Now, the sewer pipe for the signature is still set up in front of the factory gate and no promise has come true.Even, the waste disposal fee paid by the province is not VND 75,000 / ton as initially promised but dropped to VND 25,000 / ton without any clear reason.

Officials of the big cities applauded at the back of the technology, but somehow they were "afraid" and switched to buying foreign technology, even if they were expensive.Ho Chi Minh City will sign with Lemna Group (USA) a technology transfer contract worth tens of millions of dollars for a rather spectacular waste treatment plant.

In fact, the city has also signed dozens of technology transfer contracts but only for small localities such as Gia Lai, Dien Bien, Lao Cai, Thanh Hoa, Hung Yen, etc., All thanks to self-offering or The local listened to the list.

Ho Chi Minh City also seeks help from leading scientists such as Prof. Nguyen Lan Dung - Secretary General of Vietnam Society of Microbiology, Prof. Nguyen Anh Tuan - Vice Chairman of Vietnam Association of Mechanics, Academician Institute of Goods no Universe Russian Federation, etc . They put out their pockets 'to study together'.

'Just as a semi-manual, fragmented business like today, it must be ten years before a private enterprise like TP can break out.Price is paid attention to investment, credit support, tax, budget from the State, probably not sweating like this to achieve the objectives set out in Resolution No. 41 of the Politburo '- Prof. Lan Dung regretfully.
