The Kedah Department of Environment detected a recycling factory suspected of processing used plastic into fish feed pellets, in an industrial area here, today.
He said in the operation, two factories were found to be carrying out off-site acquisition of scheduled waste without environmental impact assessment approval and license from DOE and were conducting plastic recycling activities without EIA approval. “The inspection found about 100 tonnes had been processed into pellets and packed in plastic bags labelled freshwater fish food,“ he said.
In a raid at another factory, more than 1,500 tonnes of electronic waste were found and an Equipment Operation Detention was issued on the premises.
