Waste Management Guidelines

GGC is committed to the most efficient disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste to maximize resource use throughout the value chain while minimizing the amount of waste discarded by using a 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) approach at every step of the production process.

In 2021, GGC has implemented waste management through various projects such as:

Spent Bleaching Clay Project

GGC applies the principle of recycling waste by mixing spent bleaching clay, which is waste from crude palm oil bleaching process, with other fuels. This mixture can be used to produce fuel for electricity generation. As a result, GGC is able to reduce waste disposal by 691.60 tons per year and save 746,499 THB per year in waste disposal costs.
