Waste Management

Waste management focuses primarily on the handling and disposal of used oils, grease and other hydrocarbon products from workshops involved in any equipment maintenance and overhaul.

Each workshop has a concrete drainage system to carry these spilt oils to the oil trap system which holds these until they start to thicken. At this point, the lighter oils such as the kerosene and diesel are separated into a special tank before being pumped into specially marked drums.

Used oils including engine, gear and hydraulic oils are immediately collected and drummed after replacement and these drums together with drums containing oil from the drainage system are placed in covered storage before being sold third parties licensed by the Government to handle these wastes.

Solid wastes and garbage is collected from the overall operations in special containers and segregated into organic and recyclable waste and delivered to the local Government disposal area in Tanjung.
