At the seminar, senior Swedish experts and professors presented experiences in effective models of waste management and treatment that Sweden and other countries are currently applying.

They introduced Sweden’s advanced technologies and products that are able to turn waste into valuable resources, and evaluated the waste situation in Vietnam to come up with solutions.

Olle Engstrom, a waste recycling coordinator and member of the Boras City People’s Council, gave a detailed presentation on the model of waste management and treatment used in Broras which has helped it become a green and clean city.

Today, the city’s population of 100,000 has no daily waste treatment costs because 100 percent of household waste here is recycled or turned into bio-gas that can be used for transportation, heat and power.

Swedish experts, leaders and Vietnamese businesses also shared experiences in  waste treatment technology in Vietnam.
