●Treating Campus Waste for Upcycling
The Directorate of Imam Hussain’s holy shrine (parent organization of the university) incorporates with the municipal of Karbala to develop and improve the university sewers. So they have the duty to clean and maintain those sewers to ensure they serve effectively. Also, they have the duty to empty those sewers either for sewerage treatment works or where appropriate to watercourses. These wastes are very rich in organic materials and with a little treatment, they can be used as a good soil conditioner if they meet a quality protocol.

●Inorganic Waste Treatment (Recycling Program)
Generally, the University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa was established in 2017, and thus there is currently no electrical and electronic equipment waste, As for the metal and glass waste, there are separate bins in the university, where waste is collected by the dedicated garbage trucks provided by our parent organization, as the University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa is a child organization of the Directorate of Imam Hussain Holy Shrine and located in Karbala / Iraq. The Directorate of the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain A.S has implemented a single stream Recycling program to collect all the university recyclables from plastic, paper, glass, and aluminum from the university containers and dump them in the landfill affiliated with the Directorate of the Holy Shrine. Every day the university garbage is collected and transported using the garbage decomposer trucks to the specified place; that’s a dedicated site for waste collection and processing. The garbage trucks are designed to collect solid wastes.
In the future, the university seeks to provide an inorganic waste collector in which these wastes could be gathered and recovered into valuable metals.

●Organic Waste Treatment for Upcycling
Organic waste materials are produced mainly from the university canteen. There is only one canteen in the university until 2021 which means that the produced organic wastes are less. There is special treatment for this kind of garbage as the Directorate of Imam Hussein Holy shrine (our Parent organization) provides garbage trucks to deliver these wastes to an authorized waste treatment plant (also under our parent organization) that processes the garbage through special techniques.
