What are the top drivers to the rising demand in the waste recovery and recycling market?

The rising waste generation is expected to propel the growth of the waste recovery and recycling market going forward. Waste generation refers to the process by which waste materials are produced or accumulated as a byproduct of various activities, such as industrial processes, household consumption, and commercial operations. It encompasses all forms of waste, including solid, liquid, and gaseous materials, generated during the production, consumption, or disposal of goods and services. The rise in waste generation is driven by factors such as a growing population, higher consumption rates, urbanization, and increased production of goods. Waste recovery and recycling help manage growing waste levels by reprocessing materials, reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills, and conserving resources through reuse and recycling. For instance, in February 2024, according to the United Nations Environment Programme, a Kenya-based agency of the United Nations, municipal solid waste production is expected to increase from 2.1 billion metric tons in 2023 to 3.8 billion metric tons by 2050. Therefore, rising waste generation is driving the growth of the waste recovery and recycling market.
