Knowledge-Based Firms Invited to Assist Waste Treatment Plans

The Interior Ministry has started the construction of waste treatment plants in the northern province of Mazandaran, calling on knowledge-based firms and startups to help bolster the work.
Speaking to IRNA, the province's governor general, Ahmad Hossein-Zadegan, said that in line with the government's policies to boost waste management in the Iranian northern provinces, the ministry is establishing regional stations for converting waste to raw materials and energy.
“When completed, a major part of the work will preferably be assigned to local tech firms and startups,” Hossein-Zadegan said.
