Insights into Aker Carbon Capture's Waste Treatment Practices

In 2023, Aker Carbon Capture generated a total of 318 metric tonnes of waste.

Of this amount, 43.08% of Aker Carbon Capture's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 56.92% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.

Aker Carbon Capture's Waste Recovery Rate

43%

How much of Aker Carbon Capture's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Aker Carbon Capture reported a total waste generation of 318 metric tonnes, of which 43.08% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Aker Carbon Capture is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.

Has Aker Carbon Capture reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2020, Aker Carbon Capture's total waste generation increased by 19,775%, including a 1,522.45% increase in 2023, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.

Over the same period, Aker Carbon Capture's waste recovery rate declined by 56.92%, with a further 30.79% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.

Overall, Aker Carbon Capture is generating more waste while simultaneously backsliding on recovery efforts, both in the short and long term. This dual negative trend raises concerns about the company’s waste management priorities and its alignment with sustainability goals.
