One will surely think it is a far-fetched statement, but it is true! The following facts will confirm this. 

Vanuatu is an island nation in the eastern hemisphere, located in Oceania in the south Pacific Ocean made up of a chain of volcanic islands.  This island country is located east of Australia, northeast of New Caledonia, West of Fiji and southeast of Solomon Islands.  While there are 80 islands, 65 are uninhabited.  This country was previously known as Hebrides and was jointly governed by Britain and France before gaining independence.  The name Vanuatu means `our land for ever’.

There is another country located on the western hemisphere in Central America called Honduras.  This is known for its natural resources including minerals and a growing textile industry.  It has a population of little over 9 million and its official language is Spanish.  It is bordered by Guatemala, Nicaragua and El Salvador.  Honduras is the second largest country in Central America following Nicaragua.  It has four distinct regions viz. the central highlands, pacific lowlands, eastern Caribbean lowlands, and northern coastal plains and mountains.  Mountains are plentiful in Honduras, although this is the only country in Central America without volcanoes.

Why are we talking about these two different countries, separated by a distance of 12,200 kilometers? What is common between these two?  The only connection we can think of is that a Haat Incinerator is working in one country and is going to work in another country shortly.

While the one in Vanuatu is a Marine incinerator, installed on shore, the one in Honduras is for a Common Waste Facility.  The company installing it is already in this line of business and experienced enough to know that a Haat Incinerator is the right equipment for this work.

The distance of 12,200 kilometers between these two countries is covered by many countries including those in Asia such as India, its neighbors all around, Australia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Mongolia, Fiji, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Middle East countries such as Iran, Iraq, Algeria, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, African countries like Kenya, Tanzania, Sudan, Uganda, Nigeria, Cote de Vore, the U.K. , Irland and Georgia, Central/South American countries like Trinidad & Tobago, Dominican Republic and Paraguay.

In each one of these countries numbering over 50, you will find a Haat Incinerator at work relentlessly for many years, exceeding their design working life, giving good performance and getting rid of the waste, whatever be the type, from simple garbage to hazardous wastes.

This distance of 12,200 kilometers represents 30% of the circumference of the earth of 40,075 kilometers.

Rightfully, therefore, the statement made earlier that one-third of the world’s surface is covered by an incinerator from Haat is indeed not far-fetched!
