A specialist in innovative and natural pollution-control solutions, Green Keeper Africa has committed to supplying B\u00e9nin Terminal over the next two years with 100% organic absorbents to effectively control and manage accidental liquid leaks at the container terminal. As part of the partnership, Green Keeper Africa will train B\u00e9nin Terminal employees on eco-responsible practices. The start-up will also assess the roll-out of the absorbent, recover the oil collected with a view to treatment, and issue recommendations for safeguarding biodiversity at B\u00e9nin Terminal.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/benin-terminal-rolls-an-eco-responsible-initiative-with-green-keeper-africa\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/benin-terminal-rolls-an-eco-responsible-initiative-with-green-keeper-africa\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/benin-terminal-rolls-an-eco-responsible-initiative-with-green-keeper-africa\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Green-Keeper-Africa-Bollore-Ports.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Green-Keeper-Africa-Bollore-Ports.jpg","width":1280,"height":960},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/benin-terminal-rolls-an-eco-responsible-initiative-with-green-keeper-africa\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Accueil","item":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"B\u00c9NIN TERMINAL ROLLS AN ECO-RESPONSIBLE INITIATIVE WITH GREEN KEEPER AFRICA"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/#website","url":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/","name":"Maritimafrica","description":"","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/#organization","name":"MARITIMAFRICA","url":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/cropped-newlogo-2hd-scaled-2.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/cropped-newlogo-2hd-scaled-2.jpg","width":2559,"height":1165,"caption":"MARITIMAFRICA"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/maritimafrica","https:\/\/x.com\/maritimafrica","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/maritimafrica\/?viewAsMember=true"]},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/8fb393d26362e592a3b75669654ebb24","name":"admin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/81ca09740c41559a026653580868c7910d1dd1bc0206489d055620a799e794d7?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/81ca09740c41559a026653580868c7910d1dd1bc0206489d055620a799e794d7?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/81ca09740c41559a026653580868c7910d1dd1bc0206489d055620a799e794d7?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"admin"},"url":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/author\/admin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Green-Keeper-Africa-Bollore-Ports.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6710","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6710"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6710\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6712,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6710\/revisions\/6712"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6711"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6710"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6710"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/maritimafrica.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6710"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
