Recently, the CSCEC-built waste transfer stations on Malé Island and Villimale Island in Maldives completed, has been successfully completed. As an essential environmental protection project for the Maldives, it holds profound significance in safeguarding the local environment.

The project, comprising eight units on Malé and Vilimalé Islands, encompassing survey, design, construction, and equipment procurement, will provide the region with modern waste classification, transfer, and management services. The processing capacity is expected to increase from 16.4 tons per day in 2020 to 72.9 tons per day by 2047. This resolves the waste classification and transfer challenges for both islands while providing solid support for the waste-to-energy plan in the Maldives.

The Maldives experiences a long rainy season with substantial rainfall, and the project utilizes silicone gel sealing at key junctions to ensure that the masonry remains crack-free and water-resistant after completion. Waterproof additives are applied to all roofs, and a fluorocarbon-based coating is used for steel structure anti-corrosion and rust protection.

The project adopts structural elevation, enhancing the utilization of space. It introduces soundproof glass produced in China, effectively addressing the noise pollution generated during the operation of the transfer stations.
