In 2023, China Steel generated a total of 5,470,527 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 99.52% of China Steel's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 0.48% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, China Steel reported a total waste generation of 5,470,527 metric tonnes, of which 99.52% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that China Steel has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Since 2021, China Steel's total waste generation decreased by 4.27%, yet rose by 1.17% in 2023, potentially indicating a temporary operational shift or inconsistency in waste management outcomes.
Over the same period, China Steel's waste recovery rate remained stable both in the long term and in 2023, suggesting limited progress, or consistent recovery performance, without major shifts in strategy.
Overall, China Steel’s waste generation and recovery data show a mixed and inconsistent trend. A deeper analysis of the company's activities, industry benchmarks, and operational changes is needed to assess its sustainability performance more precisely.
In 2023, China Steel generated a total of 5,470,527 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 0% of China Steel's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment. 9.45% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls. The remaining 90.55% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized.
Since 2021, China Steel's total waste generation fell by 4.27%, but rose by 1.17% in 2023 , potentially reflecting a temporary surge in activity or inconsistency in waste control strategies.
Over the same period, China Steel reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 24.42%, with a further 43.2% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, China Steel's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.
In 2023, China Steel reported that 34 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 0% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (100%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that China Steel has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
