CASE STUDY
Waste management is becoming a major issue and risk for most South African
municipalities. It is affecting the safety and health of the public and placing pressure
on the management of local governments. Currently, waste management is the least
prioritised municipal service in most South African municipalities and is lagging
behind other services such as housing, water, electricity and road infrastructure.
South Africa only recycles about 10% of its waste, focusing primarily on polyethylene
terephthalate (PET), plastic, paper, and cardboard. Risk exposure for the country is
that it has less than 10 years of useful landfill life left in the Johannesburg, Tshwane
and Cape Town metros. As such, there is an urgent need to find alternative waste
treatment technologies. According to statistics, the eight metropolitan municipalities
have the largest population numbers and generate the largest waste volumes, at
about 10 million to 20 million ton of waste annually, of which the bulk is landfilled.
Material recovery facilities (MRFs) have been established in some municipalities to
recover recyclables. However, the absence of separating waste at the source means
facilities are operated as “dirty” MRFs with high contamination rates and lower
recovery rates than “clean” facilities with low contamination rates. Some of the
challenges facing waste management in South Africa include environmental
authorisations, permitting, licencing and social issues as the primary stumbling
blocks. For example, identifying a suitable site and commissioning a landfill can take
up to 10 years.
Although technologies' CapEx (Capital Expenditure) and maintenance costs for
treating waste are substantial, landfilling remains less expensive than alternative
waste treatment technologies. However, the price for landfilling may even be higher,
given the cost of managing a landfill upon its closure. The life of a landfill may stretch
to about 50 years after it closes. In addition, the absence of carbon taxes means that
