In 2023, Ningbo Shanshan generated a total of 58,481 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 27.99% of Ningbo Shanshan's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 72.01% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Ningbo Shanshan reported a total waste generation of 58,481 metric tonnes, of which 27.99% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Ningbo Shanshan is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Since 2021, Ningbo Shanshan's total waste generation increased by 9.07%, but declined by 13.74% in the year 2023, suggesting a potential shift toward more efficient material use or the early impact of waste reduction strategies.
Over the same period, Ningbo Shanshan's waste recovery rate declined by 49.28%, with a further 43.69% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.
Overall, Ningbo Shanshan has historically generated more waste, and although the most recent figures show a drop in output, declining recovery rates suggest that the company’s waste management systems may be weakening or under-resourced.
In 2023, Ningbo Shanshan generated a total of 58,481 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 13.99% of Ningbo Shanshan'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. 86.01% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2021, Ningbo Shanshan's total waste generation increased by 9.07%, including a 13.74% 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 Ningbo Shanshan's total output increased by 2.68%, including a further 23.76% rise in 2023, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.
Overall, while Ningbo Shanshan has recently reduced waste output, its hazardous waste share continues to rise, raising concerns about treatment efficiency or growing reliance on harmful materials despite short-term volume improvements.
In 2023, Ningbo Shanshan reported that 8,180 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 13.99% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Approximately 31.63% was managed through recovery methods, indicating a moderate integration of circular practices into its hazardous waste management. However, a significant share was still directed toward disposal, highlighting room for improvement in reducing the long-term impact of hazardous materials.
