Month: July 2015

This week, our most popular Waste Business Report was MSW Incineration.

The need to handle ever increasing volumes of household waste and to cost-effectively produce electricity finds its perfect solution in Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plants. Testimony to the benefits of this technology is reflected in over 265 MSW WtE plant developments in 58 countries, as reported by AcuComm in October 2014. These plants have a planned/projected generating capacity in excess of 5,000 MW and bring more than 60 million tonnes per year to the MSW sector.

Each new waste project represents ongoing investment of an average of around US$100 million.

Wood and other biomass-based feedstocks account for around one third of all new investment in waste technologies, reflecting a move away from traditional power generation in many countries.

WtE incineration projects represented over 53% of reported new or planned waste project capacity in May 2015.

Well-structured and clearly presented with charts, tables, statistics and factual insights, WBM turns complex data in to easily understandable information. AcuComm apply market analysis into their WBM that provides you with a practical understanding of what is being developed where and by whom.

This week, AcuComm’s most popular Waste Business Report was the Gasification issue.

Since the beginning of 2013, AcuComm has monitored a number of gasification plant developments in 20 countries worldwide. This efficient technology brings 7.8 million tonnes per annum capacity to the global waste sector with 56% coming from Municipal Solid Waste.

For a “real-time” market analysis on key waste industry trends from across the world, look no further than our monthly publication of Waste Business Reports.

The average value of a hazardous/clinical project is US$101 million, although there are many opportunities for smaller or indeed larger individual investments.

Hazardous/clinical projects – once they obtain the relevant permissions – are typically operational within one year of work commencing.

As waste industry operations grow more international, it is critical for equipment manufacturers and operators to fully understand current developments and assess their impact and opportunity. And with Waste Business Monitor (WBM), that is now possible!
