At BCG, our cleaning program uses various smart tech alongside our dedicated team of field operators, we are committed to robust cleaning operations at these locations to create a lasting impact by improving sanitation and helping prevent plastic pollution.
We use a mechanical raking system for cleaning the beaches and patented river cleaning technology for rivers. Our drainage trash catcher stops plastic waste from upstream sources from entering the ocean through storm drainage.
Collect
The technology used by us stops and collects floating plastic waste before it gets into the waterbodies and beaches. After this, we collect the waste and segregate it before recycling the waste based on its segregation.
After we remove the trash, we weigh, tag, and seal the plastic to make sure that it is kept separate from other plastic. Next, we segregate various grades of plastics and mixed-plastics and make sure to track every movement. The waste collected, which is not fit to be turned into new products is thermally recycled into energy.
Once segregated, different types of plastics go for particular plastic recycling to minimize waste. Accountability, traceability, and transparency are very important to make sure waste is collected and segregated properly so it can be utilized as a prospective future resource wherever possible.
Recycle
After the plastic waste is segregated, it is then recycled or processed into various products for the plastic manufacturing industry. This process not only cleans the environment but also provides many self-sustaining local jobs.
Thanks to the help of our esteemed partners, we have worked to recycle plastic waste and make new products come to life at every step. After the recycling process, some high-quality products are obtained, which achieve high and quality standards.
We, along with our partners are cleaning up various beaches and other water bodies in Ghana. We use our innovative tools and focus on raising conscious awareness of waste management with our Clean-Collect and recycle cycle.
Our partners include individuals, organizations, and government bodies, which help us in every step of the recycling and make sure that the products obtained by the recycling process are sent to the markets.
