Can you suggest to set up the recycling plant?
A question from Joy Poghisio
Hello, I am recent college graduate interested in opening a recycling facility in rural western Kenya. I am interested in opening a large facility. In this area, there are some schools and a hospital coming up. How far from these can I set up the recycling plant so students and patients don't inhale possibly toxic fumes? Should I situate it further away from rivers etc.? Also, how much water can I expect to use?
The major sources of water would be boreholes, rain, and rivers. I am choosing to work in this area because of the potential for population growth in the next few years. Towns here have inadequate waste management infrastructure that will not be able to keep up with increasing populations. The facility will also hire staff from the local population and buy plastic waste from local collectors giving hundreds of unemployed people a steady source of income. Any help would be appreciated.
