The Oman Environmental Services Holding Company (be’ah) has recently signed an agreement with Tialoc and Al Ramooz National to establish the second phase of the industrial waste treatment facility in the Sohar Free Zone. This agreement is part of be’ah’s ongoing efforts to enhance industrial waste management infrastructure in the Sultanate of Oman. The second phase of the project includes the development of an integrated facility for industrial waste treatment, encompassing hazardous waste treatment, physical and chemical processing, and facilities for the treatment of used oils and toxic waste. Storage tanks and advanced infrastructure will also be provided to support operations.
