Global Industrial Waste Management Market Estimated to Reach US$ 1.1 Trn by 2026
Industrial Waste
Management Market - Snapshot
Industrial waste is
a combination of solid, liquid, and gaseous waste generated and
collected from various industries such as construction, oil &
gas, chemical, nuclear, agriculture, and mining. It is a combination
of hazardous and non-hazardous waste. Chemical, oil & gas, and
nuclear industries constitute the major share of the hazardous
industrial waste generated each year.
Rapid
industrialization followed by stringent regulations on dumping of
thermal power plant waste to boost market
Industrial waste
constitutes approximately 50% share of the overall waste generated
across the globe. Rapid industrialization and rise in population are
expected to generate high industrial waste in the next few years.
Several service providers are entering the industrial waste
management business owing to the high potential coupled with
government support and funding. Coal combustion products (CCP)
contain environmentally hazardous contaminants such as arsenic,
cadmium, and mercury. If not monitored properly, these substances can
cause serious threat to the environment. Therefore, it is vital to
regulate the disposal of CCPs such as fly ash through coal-fired
power stations. Regulatory authorities across the globe such as the
U.S. EPA and the European Union’s waste legislation regulate the
disposal of industrial waste. In October 2016, the U.S. EPA issued a
set of rules for safe disposal of coal combustion products in the
U.S.

Growth in concerns
about proper treatment and disposal of hazardous industrial waste
Hazardous industrial
waste constitutes less than 4% share of the global industrial waste
market. However, collection, treatment, and disposal costs of
hazardous industrial waste are 10 times higher than that of
non-hazardous industrial waste.
Nuclear, oil &
gas, and chemical industries are dominant producers of hazardous
waste. These industries are projected to generate even more waste in
the next few years owing to the high demand for energy and chemical
products across the globe. This is likely to benefit service
providers engaged in collection, treatment, and disposal of hazardous
industrial waste. Technical expertise, prior experience of handling
hazardous waste, and adherence of government norms are primary
factors that determine the contract for hazardous industrial waste
management among service providers.
Developed nations
are more active in industrial waste management
Countries in Europe
and North America have enacted stringent regulations pertaining to
collection, recycling, landfill, and incineration of industrial
waste. Countries and sub-regions in Asia, especially India, China,
and ASEAN, are beginning to shift toward sustainable industrial waste
management. However, several developing and under-developed nations
in Middle East & Africa and Latin America are struggling to
implement regulations on collection, recycling, landfill, and
incineration of industrial waste. This is estimated to hamper the
demand for industrial waste management, especially in Middle East &
Africa and Latin America, in the near future.
Developments &
innovations in terms of product and technology in industrial waste
management market
In October 2018,
Waste Management Inc. received ‘Highest Scores in Industry’ on
the 2018 Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI) North America and
World. In October 2018, the company opened its solids and liquids
injection disposal facility in West Texas, the U.S., in order to
serve the oil & gas industry. In 2017, Waste Management Inc.
generated revenue of US$ 9.2 Bn through collection of wastes. In
2017, landfill constituted 41.6% of the waste managed by the company,
followed by transfer (19%) and recycling (17.7%). In November 2013,
Waste Management Inc. signed a contract with American Electric Power
(AEP) to provide landfill management and fly ash marketing services
at the three power plants in Texas, the U.S. In May 2018, Sembcorp
Industries sold its medical waste treatment division to TEE Medical
Services for US$ 20 Mn. The division specializes in the treatment and
disposal of bio-hazardous and pharmaceutical wastes. Its new owner,
i.e. TEE Medical Services, is a 50:50 joint venture between TEE
Infrastructure and Asia Enviro Services. In August 2018, a draft
permit was issued for Veolia’s Energy from Waste (EfW) facility in
Hoddesdon, the U.K. The Hoddesdon plant is designed to process wastes
of up to 350,000 tons every year. It has capacity of 33.5 MWe. In
September 2018, Suez Environnement strengthened its presence in China
by acquiring two new contracts in wastewater and waste management in
the city of Changshu. The company bagged the operation and
maintenance contract for the waste treatment plant in Jianghe
Tianrong area, China. In September 2018, Suez Environnement announced
plans to construct a new energy-from-waste plant in Stockton-on-Tees
(County of Durham), the U.K., to manage household and commercial
waste in North East of the country from 2021. The project is expected
to cost US$ 173 Mn. In February 2018, Clean Harbors, Inc. completed
the acquisition of Veolia’s U.S. Industrial Cleaning division, a
subsidiary of Veolia Environmental Services, for approximately US$
120 Mn. The acquisition helped the company offer industrial services
of significant scale. It also helped the company expand its existing
industrial services business in the U.S.

Asia Pacific market
to grow at fast pace in terms of demand
Asia Pacific is the
key region of the industrial waste management market. It is expected
to remain dominant during the forecast period owing to the
year-on-year increase in generation and collection of industrial
waste. There exists significant potential to reduce industrial waste;
reuse and recycle waste; achieve higher productivity and resource
security; generate employment; and reduce risks to humans and
ecosystems in Asia Pacific. China held major share of the industrial
waste management market in Asia Pacific in 2017. It is one of the key
importers of industrial and e-waste from the U.S. and Europe.
However, demand for industrial waste management in India is projected
to rise at a rapid pace during the forecast period. The Government of
India has partnered with Innovate UK and Research Councils, the
Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), and
the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) in
projects that use cutting-edge solutions to reduce industrial waste.
Highly competitive
market with dominance of top players
The global
industrial waste management market is highly fragmented; large
numbers of local and international players provide industrial waste
management services. Leading players dominate the market. Key players
operating in the industrial waste management market are Stericycle,
Inc., Waste Management, Inc., Sembcorp Industries, Veolia, Suez,
Reclay Group, Daiseki Co., Ltd., Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty)
Ltd., Clean Harbors, Inc., and SA Waste.
