斯堪尼亚协助马来西亚化废物为财富
斯堪尼亚 (马来西亚) 私人有限公司将和马来西亚革新 机构(AIM)携手探讨马来西亚市政废料化为生物燃料的 可行商机;以配合 2020 年国家生物质策略(NBS 2020)。
斯堪尼亚东南亚董事经理玛丽(Marie Sjödin Enström)代表斯堪尼 亚与马来西亚革新机构首席执行员罗萨尼奥(Mark Rozario)签署了 一份谅解备忘录。
首相署部长拿督马袖强和瑞典策略发展及北欧合作部长佩尔松女士 (Mrs Kristina Persson)在2015 年瑞典-马来西亚革新日(SMID)， 见证了该签署仪式。
在该谅解备忘录之下，斯堪尼亚和马来西亚革新机构将针对马来西亚
市政废料化为生物燃料的可行商机，展开研究。这项研究包括鉴定可
能的项目地点，价格和市场需求预测，以及经济和运营的可行性。
生物燃料有助于净化空气和减少交通工具的碳足迹。生物燃料可化废 料为洁净的能量，提升燃料供应的安全度和改善地方经济，协助制造 就业机会和促进工业发展。这一切旨在配合 NBS 2020 的目标，即运 用生物质生产高价值产品，发展新工业和高价值机会。马来西亚希望 站在发展基于生物质新工业的前端，最终为国家生产总值和高价值就 业机会作出贡献。
斯堪尼亚表示，它拥有催化该项目的科技，在过去的二十多年来，它
一直是瑞典和世界各地生物燃料开发和应用，开发和生产基于商业生
物燃料运输解决方案的主要贡献机构之一。
“长远的商业成功意味着提供更高利润的同时，也带来效率和减少 二氧化碳，并且履行社会及道德责任。斯堪尼亚以引领业者朝永续 性运输系统迈进为荣。”玛丽说。“这意味着充分将永续性融入业 务，与马来西亚革新机构携手合作，让马来西亚转型迈向创造持久 的价值。”
Scania Helps to Turn Waste to Wealth in Malaysia
Scania Malaysia (Scania) and Agensi Ino- vasi Malaysia or Malaysia Innovation Agency (AIM) are collaborating to explore viable commercial opportunities for biofuels from municipal waste in Malaysia; in line with the Na- tional Biomass Strategy 2020 (NBS 2020).
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed recently between Scania, represented by the Managing Director of Scania Southeast Asia, Marie Sjödin Enström, and AIM, represented by its Chief Executive Officer, Mark Rozario.
Witnessing the signing were Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Dato’ Mah Siew Keong and Sweden’s Minister for Strategic Develop- ment and Nordic Cooperation Mrs Kristina Pers- son; at the Sweden-Malaysia Innovation Day 2015 (SMID).
The MOU will see Scania and AIM conducting a feasibility study on the commercial opportunities of biofuels from municipal waste in Malaysia. The study includes the identification of possible proj- ect locations, price and market demand projec- tions and economic and operational feasibility.
Biofuels help clean up the air and reduce the car- bon footprint from transport. They turn waste into clean energy, increase security of fuel supply and improve local economies, help create local job opportunities and industrial development. These are in line with NBS 2020’s aim to develop new industries and high-value opportunities by utilis- ing biomass for high value products. Malaysia aims to be at the forefront of the development of new biomass-based industries, ultimately con- tributing towards Malaysia’s GNI and high-value job creation.
Scania says it has the technology to catalyse this project as it has been one of the main con- tributors to the development and adaptation of biofuels, developing and producing commercial biofuel-based transport solutions for more than 20 years in Sweden and around the world.
“Long-term business success means delivering greater profitability along with efficiency, CO2 reductions and social and ethical responsibil- ity. Scania is proud to take the lead in the shift towards a sustainable transport system,” said Marie. “This means integrating sustainability fully into businesses and working with AIM to trans- form Malaysia towards creating lasting value.”
