UAE Industrial Waste Management Market Analysis
The UAE waste management industry is eagerly aiming to reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact by the effective waste management of the various industrial wastes generated in the country. As the country is shifting focus toward the non-oil sector to reduce the over-dependency on the oil trade, it is increasing the operations in the industries, like heavy and light manufacturing, refineries, chemical plants, power plants, and mineral extraction and processing, which generate huge amounts of waste.
Abu Dhabi is the largest emirate in the United Arab Emirates, with the highest share of industrial activities in the country. It also generates large amounts of industrial wastes and demands eco-friendly techniques to treat wastes, both hazardous and non-hazardous. Tadweer, the center for waste management, plays a pivotal role in developing sustainable and integrated programs to render effective waste management in the country. It started off in 2008 and, since then, has achieved substantial growth, delivering safe and effective waste management. In 2017, the United Arab Emirates collected about 39.188 million metric ton of wastes, 90% of the total waste collected was accumulated from Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah. Abu Dhabi alone contributed a share of 25% of the waste. In the hazardous waste category, Abu Dhabi had a share of 53.4%, while in the non-hazardous waste category, Dubai had the maximum share of 58.9%.
