Insights into MISC's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, MISC generated a total of 24,315 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 79.12% of MISC's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 20.92% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
MISC's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of MISC's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, MISC reported a total waste generation of 24,315 metric tonnes, of which 79.12% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that MISC has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Has MISC reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2021, MISC's total waste generation increased by 19.4%, including a 11.7% 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, MISC's waste recovery rate increased by 35.74%, but declined by 18.29% in 2023, potentially signaling volatility in waste treatment processes or shifting priorities in waste management.
Overall, MISC’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.

How MISC reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2021, MISC's total waste generation increased by 19.4%, including a 11.7% 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.
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste in MISC's total output increased by 1.18%, including a further 3.92% rise in 2023, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.
Overall, MISC 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.
How does MISC treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, MISC reported that 19,094 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 78.53% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (99.96%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that MISC has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
