RAS AL KHAIMAH / WAM
The American University of Ras Al Khaimah (AURAK) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Al Shrooq Green Energy (ASGE), a UAE based company specialising in municipal solid waste (MSW) gasification technologies.
The arrangement agrees to mutual cooperation in terms of sharing expertise, a pilot scaled Skid Mounted Gasification Unit (SMGU), and research on waste to energy systems developed by ASGE. The company will deliver the SMGU to RAK Research and Innovation Center (RAKRIC) for research and application development using the syngas produced from the waste sources in Ras Al Khaimah.
This initiative directly joins with RAK Waste Management Authority (RAKWMA) to support their mission of diverting seventy-five percent of the MSW away from landfills by 2021.
