A multi-faceted strategy required to contain the levels of waste generated in Qatar

Qatar is counted among the world’s fastest growing economies. Municipal solid waste management is one of the most serious challenges faced by this Gulf nation on account of high population growth rate, urbanization, industrial growth and economic expansion. The country has one of the highest per capita waste generation rates worldwide which is as high as 1.8 kg per day. Qatar produces more than 2.5 million tons of municipal solid waste each year. Solid waste stream is mainly comprised of organic materials (around 60 percent) while the rest of the waste steam is made up of recyclables like glass, paper, metals and plastics. 

 Qatar has already committed to enforcing international standards for environmental protection when designing and implementing its industrial projects. Given the scenario, Nispana proudly presents the 6th Annual Waste Management & Recycling Summit Qatar scheduled on the 3 & 4 February 2016 in Doha Qatar. The official co-hosts for the conference are the Ministry of Municipality & Urban Planning, State of Qatar and The Qatar Green Building council as the Official Sustainability Partners. The expert panel consists of Mr. Mohamed Nagib Omara, Head of Strategic Planning Technical Advisor to the President of Kahramaa; Dr. Ghazi Elsayed Abdelkerim Ibrahim Elsherif- Public Works Authority (ASHGHAL) Environmental Expert, Quality Safety & Environment; Mr. Safar Mubark Al Shafi -Director of General Cleanliness Project, Ministry of Municipality & Urban Planning’ Senior Representative from Qatar Project Management and Dr. Alex Amato – Head Of Sustainability, Qatar Green Building Council just to name a few. This two day gathering will feature visionary presentations from local and international experts.  Participants at the summit will include important government bodies, research institutes, international waste management experts, health & safety experts, environmental consultants and a host of recycling firms. This conference is conceptualized and developed by Nispana Innovative Platforms Pvt Ltd.

PRESS RELEASE: Waste Management and Recycling Summit 2014

A step forward in achieving Zero Waste in Qatar

Nispana is proud to host its 3rd Edition Waste Management & Recycling Summit on 17 – 18 September 2014 at Intercontinental Hotel in Doha, Qatar. With the concern of producing waste to energy & waste to resource continuing to shape the world’s environmental order, we at Nispana are confident that this will be a great platform to bring in Global experts in Waste Management to Qatar. 

Qatar is making conscious and ongoing efforts in reducing the amount of waste going to landfills and instead stressing on recycling to improve the waste management efforts in the region. The solid waste management market in Qatar alone has a potential of more than USD 600 Million. The country currently aspires to recycle 38% of its solid waste up from the current 8% which will considerably reduce the domestic per capita waste generation. 

The upcoming waste management conference looks at addressing various waste related concerns like how the oil & gas industry is rising to the challenge of waste management, QGBC’s initiatives with regards to waste management in Qatar, Analyzing and understanding the current situation of medical waste management in the State of Qatar and challenges of Industrial waste in Bahrain to name a few. Some of the experts who will be sharing their valuable industry insight at the conference are Eng. Meshal Al Shamari – Director – Qatar Green Building Council, Mr. Salah Nezar – Corporate Sustainability Director - Qatar Project Management, Mr. Saif S Al Naimi - Director of HSE Regulations and Enforcement Directorate - Qatar Petroleum and Eng. Khaled El EMADI - Manager of Quality & Safety Department– Public Works Authority ASHGHAL amongst others. With professional management of waste becoming the need of the hour, Keppel Seghers will be sharing their views on how the Domestic Solid Waste Management Centre (DSWMC) will help in improving waste management in Qatar. This center is a one of its kind center in the Middle East.  

The conference has a very strong relevance to the current waste scenario in Qatar and is being supported by prestigious organizations like Supreme Council of Health Qatar, Qatar Green Building Council and Middle East Facility Management Association

Waste Management & recycling Summit 2014 – Qatar

Waste to Energy & Waste to Resource will continue to shape the world’s environmental order, creating a global resource industry that is estimated to be a Billion dollar industry by 2040, opening a vast array of opportunities for the nations to develop an alternative source of GDP whilst depleting the existing resources.

The “3rd edition Waste Management & Recycling Summit- Qatar, 2014” is an initiative to understand & to explore the role of Waste Resources for a sustainable future. Qatar being the focus of the 3rd edition, in specific we are dealing with a number of 1.8kg per person per day of solid waste generation which sums up to a national figure of 28000kgT per day, 92% of which is directed towards landfills with an all time low of 3% Recycling rate. 

With an active construction business, extensive hydrocarbon sector oriented economy, growing number of high income households & Qatar to host the world cup-2022, it will encounter a massive hike in the percentage of an additional expatriate labor force driven by World Cup 2022 for construction activities.
Due to which its household waste is forecasted to reach 5.6k T/day in 2032 with a peak at 5.7k T/day in 2020 which needs to be addressed much in advance to seize the potential of this resource.  

The measures proposed in the National Development Strategy 2011–2016 focused on the strategies for effective management of waste. The government recognizes a hierarchy of actions to alleviate pressures on the environment, with the most preferable goal being the avoidance of waste. The centre is expected to reduce the share of domestic waste disposed of in landfills to 3%–5%, thereby reducing the share of total waste sent to landfills from 92% to 64%. It will also convert waste to energy and raise the level of waste recycling from 8% to 20%–25%.

The Revenue potential for the solid waste value chain in Qatar is estimated to be USD 663M. Significant opportunities include: Construction & Demolition Recycling (USD 105M), Household: Recycling (USD 100M), Commercial: Collection (USD 76M) and Recycling (USD 100M), Waste to Energy (WtE): USD 135M

With regard to governance over sustainability the proportion of private sector schemes is likely to rise in future as the Government seeks greater private sector participation in project development. This is likely to be reflected in private sector power developments, water and wastewater projects and in real estate development & sustainable development.

Qatar’s foray into waste-to-energy indicates the lucrative business opportunities in the emerging sustainable waste management sector. Hence, “NISPANA” presents “Waste Management & Recycling Summit- Qatar, 27th & 28th August-2014 at Doha, Qatar”, a 2 day conference to bring forward and highlight the future opportunities in this sector, Capture the most effective and latest technologies, Focused on investment in Waste Management and bring in the government officials, waste generators industry Experts & Solution Providers such as: landfill professionals and recycling firms from across the globe to share their expertise & educate the attendees  to make this initiative a bench mark in Waste Management –sector.
