SHANGHAI, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On May 22nd, a delegation of over 20 representatives from Kazakhstan, including government officials and local residents, visited SUS Gaoling Project in Xi'an, China. Their goal was to witness firsthand how a waste-to-energy plant operates and to address their concerns about such facilities.
Traditionally, waste-to-energy plants are perceived as sources of odor, pollution, and health risks, often leading to the "Not In My Backyard" (NIMBY) effect. However, the delegation's visit to SUS Gaoling Project transform perceptions.
During their three-day tour, the delegation explored SUS Gaoling Project and other waste disposal facilities. At SUS Gaoling Project, they were amazed by the garden-style design of the plant. Inside, they noticed no waste smells, and the entire operation was managed efficiently through digital systems. Real-time emissions data was displayed publicly, ensuring full transparency.
One representative remarked, "This plant is cleaner and more organized than most factories we've seen."
In a face-to-face discussion, the delegation learned SUS Gaoling's success comes from: 1) Cutting-edge flue gas technology exceeding EU Emission standards; 2) AI-powered digital management optimizing every aspect of management; 3) Open days and engagement fostering trust and transforming NIMBY to PIMBY. 4）Garden-style plant design combining functionality with ecological aesthetics.
