Incineration ash disposal method

Do you know how the garbage from your home is disposed of after it is incinerated at the "Clean Center Tamagawa" run by the " Tamagawa Hygiene Association (external link) " and turned into ash?
The generated ash is transported to the "Tokyo Tama Eco-cement Facility" located in the Futatsuzuka disposal site of the "Tokyo Tama Wide Area Resource Recycling Association (external link) " located in Hinode-machi, Tokyo, where it is recycled into eco-cement. , All household waste generated in Inagi City is recycled and not landfilled.
The Futatsuzuka disposal site accepts garbage from about 4 million people in 25 cities and 1 town in the Tama region. Garbage is being landfilled.
It is very difficult to create another final disposal site for garbage, and landfills are limited. Therefore, the operation of the eco-cement facility is intended to extend the life of the disposal site.
Each and every one of us brings only the minimum amount of incineration ash to Hinode Town, and thoroughly separates garbage, and recycles resources such as used paper, used cloth, cans, PET bottles, and bottles to further reduce the amount of garbage. Thank you for your cooperation.
