Insights into Eni's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Eni generated a total of 3,400,000 metric tonnes of waste. a
Of this amount, 14.71% of Eni's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 82.35% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion. The remaining 2.94% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized. a
Eni's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Eni's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Eni reported a total waste generation of 3,400,000 metric tonnes, of which 14.71% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This low recovery rate highlights limited waste diversion and suggests that Eni may be relying more heavily on landfill or incineration, underscoring opportunities for stronger resource recovery initiatives. a
Has Eni reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2021, Eni's total waste generation increased by 61.9%, including a 25.93% 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. a
Over the same period, Eni's waste recovery rate increased by 54.41%, including a 32.35% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal. a
Overall, Eni has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2023. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.

How Eni reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2021, Eni's total waste generation increased by 61.9%, including a 25.93% rise in 2023, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems. a
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste in Eni's total output increased by 159.41%, including a further 51.6% rise in 2023, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks. a
Overall, Eni has seen a continuous rise in both total waste and hazardous waste over time, signaling a worsening environmental impact that may require urgent reassessment of material sourcing, production processes, or waste mitigation strategies. a
How does Eni treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, Eni reported that 2,100,000 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 61.76% of its overall waste generation. a
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Only 9.52% of hazardous waste was recovered, meaning the vast majority was treated through disposal methods such as landfilling or incineration. This raises concerns about the environmental and health risks associated with Eni’s current hazardous waste practices. a
