Insights into Petronas Gas's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Petronas Gas generated a total of 3,266 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 64.42% of Petronas Gas's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 19.81% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion. The remaining 15.77% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized.
Petronas Gas's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Petronas Gas's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Petronas Gas reported a total waste generation of 3,266 metric tonnes, of which 64.42% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Petronas Gas is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Has Petronas Gas reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2021, Petronas Gas's total waste generation increased by 61.44%, including a 50.37% 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, Petronas Gas's waste recovery rate increased by 61.89%, including a 35.45% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Petronas Gas 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.
