Zalo Energy is collaborating with Cambodia’s Ministry of Environment to jointly promote environmental protection and energy transition. Recently, both teams conducted an on-site survey of a major landfill near Phnom Penh, which has accumulated over 12 million tons of waste over the years. The Cambodian government is seeking an effective solution through Zalo Energy’s advanced technologies, covering the full process—from waste sorting and pyrolysis to renewable fuel production and final treatment—aiming to establish a comprehensive environmental remediation plan.

The visit also included an inspection of the Ministry’s new 144-hectare waste management facility, within which Zalo Energy has been granted approximately 2 hectares for plant development. The company plans to build a waste sorting center, a pyrolysis plant, and a fuel production facility. Utilizing low-temperature pyrolysis technology, Zalo Energy ensures a zero-air-pollution process, while producing high-octane fuel (above 80) that maximizes energy value.

Beyond effectively addressing waste issues, the pyrolysis process aligns with circular economy principles—transforming waste into energy and opening potential opportunities for carbon credit trading. The implementation of this project is expected to significantly improve both Cambodia’s environmental conditions and its energy shortages.

Zalo Energy’s team conducted detailed site measurements and environmental assessments to confirm facility layout and land suitability, laying the foundation for future construction and operations. As the project progresses, Zalo Energy remains committed to deploying cutting-edge technology to build a complete industry chain—from waste treatment to energy production and market deployment—delivering meaningful contributions to global sustainability and environmental advancement.
