Large size Expansion Joints for Sharjah Waste-to-Energy Project in the United Arab Emirates.

We have successfully designed, manufactured, tested and shipped high-tech Elbow Pressure Balanced and Universal Tied Expansion Joints for the Sharjah Waste-to-Energy Project in the United Araba Emirates.

This waste-to-energy plant in Sharjah, will divert more than 300,000 tons of solid waste from landfill each year, and will contribute to Sharjah's effort to reach "zero waste-to-landfill" target by 2020 and the UAE to deliver its 2021 goal of diverting 75% of solid waste from landfills.

The facility will incinerate around 37.5 tons of municipal solid waste per hour to generate energy and will be located adjacent to Bee’ah’s existing Material Recovery Facility in Sharjah, where Emirate of Sharjah waste is collected, sorted, recycled and, where necessary, sent to landfills.

The incineration process converts the waste into produced heat which is then used to drive an electrical turbine. The net electrical power produced will be circ. 29 MW which will be supplied to the Sharjah electricity grid. The flue gas of the waste incineration will be treated before being released into the atmosphere.

Sharjah is the third largest and third most populous city in the United Arab Emirates, forming part of the Dubai-Sharjah-Ajman metropolitan area. The emirate of Sharjah borders with Dubai to the south, Ajman and Umm Al Quwain to the north and Ras Al Khaimah to the east. It is the only emirate that overlooks the coastline on the Persian Gulf to the west and the Gulf of Oman (Indian Ocean) to the East, with the eastern Sharjah coastal towns of Kalba and Khor Fakkan.
