Maynilad's Bio Bricks Project: First in the Philippines
This project explores the conversion of biosolids from Maynilad's septage treatment process into bio-bricks. These bio-bricks, a lightweight, cement-like material, offer a sustainable alternative to traditional hollow blocks. The initiative includes the establishment of a BioHub, a dedicated facility located within Maynilad's largest water treatment plant in Asia (CAMANA) where the bio-bricks are manufactured. This project addresses biosolids disposal challenges while creating a valuable construction material.
Sulu Provincial Women Council's Waste to Building Materials Project
This project, funded and advocated by SPWC, addresses two critical challenges in Sulu: the growing need for affordable housing and the pressing issue of waste management. Sulu's Waste to Building Materials offers a sustainable solution by transforming waste into eco-friendly building materials. This innovative approach not only creates valuable resources for Sulu's housing projects but also generates employment opportunities within the community. By diverting waste from landfills and repurposing it into construction materials, the project promotes environmental sustainability while simultaneously contributing to the development of much-needed housing. This initiative represents a significant step towards a more resilient and environmentally conscious future for Sulu.
