Putting wastes in order

Solid wastes problems in the Philippines has been an issue even years ago and it certainly add up to the growing effects of global warming. Although the Philippine government tries to eliminate it but up to now it is still one of the major problems of the Filipino community. This wastes problem has been addressed by the local government through implementing the solid waste management system to every community. But the question here is; how sustainable is this system to reduce the generated waste daily? The answer--it is not sustainable at all. The result is quiet visible in congested cities all over the Philippines. According to a study, the Philippines generates more than 10,000 tons of solid wastes per day. Imagine the garbage crisis that the Philippines is facing every day. It’s tons of garbage piled in every corner. Actually, it’s not the solid waste management system that is difficult to sustain but the implementation. Good thing there are numerous companies who strive hard to help countries with these kind of problems. SBSC (Spectrum Blue Steel Corporation) is one of these companies who continuously endeavor for a cleaner and greener environment. 

Spectrum Blue Steel Corporation is a local company duly registered under the laws of the Philippines which also serves as the management arm of the Spectrum Blue Steel Consultants. SBSC has an exclusive license to market, sell, or lease, install, and operate the Biosphere Process in the Philippines. The Biosphere Process or Biosphere Technology is a gasification process wherein it destroys traditional and non-traditional waste materials to generate electricity. SBSC believes that through biosphere technology we can eliminate the serious environmental issues brought by wastes problems.

SBSC has now existing biosphere projects agreements with some of the local government units in the Philippines. SBSC has MOA with City of San Fernando, Sta. Rosa Nueva Ecija, Naga City, Tanjay City, Dumaguete City and Bayawan City. In fact the construction of the biosphere facility in City of San Fernando, Pampanga has already started and more biosphere projects are set to be built in various cities and municipalities of the Philippines.
