Waste management idea pitch deck v1.pptx

talks about waste management and how it can be applied in Gulf region

1. Introduction Overview : Saudi Arabia's real estate sector confronts distinct sustainability obstacles. Key Challenges : Energy Consumption Water Usage Waste Management Environmental Context : The nation's hot and dry climate intensifies the pressure on energy and water resources.

2. Rapid Urbanization - Escalated waste generation due to population growth and consumerism. Economic Burdens - Increasing costs: landfill land allocation, waste treatment & management. Environmental Degradation - Soil, water, and air contamination from improperly managed waste. - Rise in greenhouse gas emissions, intensifying climate crisis. Inefficient Systems - Low recycling rates lead to wasted resources. Over-reliance on landfills, lacking innovative waste-to-value strategies. Addressing waste management is essential for a sustainable, prosperous future. And a moral, economic, and environmental necessity. WASTE MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES

3. CURRENT WASTE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN SAUDI ARABIA Annual Waste Production : 53 million tons Major Contributors : Riyadh: 21% Jeddah: 14% Dammam: 8% Landfill Status : Nearing capacity Consumer Habits : High use of disposable products, especially single-use plastics Waste Treatment : Majority in landfills (untreated) Limited recycling Some incineration Landfill Reuse : Typically unusable for other purposes Landfill Quality : Not engineered to limit harm Landfill Cost : Averaging $1.87 per ton Environmental Impacts: Soil Contamination : Harmful chemicals leach into the soil, affecting plant growth and entering the food chain. Water Pollution : Leachate from landfills contaminates groundwater and waterways, threatening aquatic life and water sources. Air Pollution : Burning waste releases harmful gases; decomposing waste produces methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Loss of Biodiversity : Polluted habitats can cause loss of plant and animal species. Climate Change: Methane emissions from landfills contribute to global warming. Health Concerns : Toxic Exposure : Polluted air, water, and soil can lead to direct exposure to toxins. Respiratory Issues : Inhalation of pollutants from burning waste can cause asthma, lung cancer, and other respiratory diseases. Infectious Diseases : Open dumpsites can become breeding grounds for vectors like mosquitoes, leading to diseases like malaria and dengue. Contaminated Food and Water : Harmful chemicals in soil and water can contaminate crops and drinking water, leading to various illnesses. Mental and Social Impact: Living near polluted areas can cause stress, anxiety, and other mental health issues. Cost of Environmental Degradation: $1.3 billion in 2021 Data referenced from Saudi Arabia’s National Center for Waste Management and statements by the former CEO of the Saudi Investment Recycling Company. https://www.trade.gov/country-commercial-guides/saudi-arabia-waste-management

4. The Opportunities Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 places strong emphasis on environmental sustainability and waste reduction. The Waste management market in Saudi Arabia is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2020 to 2025, reaching USD 6.2 billion by the end of the forecast period Leverage this opportunity to align with the country's goals and boost the real estate company's reputation.

7. Key Technologies

8. Benefits of Smart Technologies Current Scenario : Riyadh has approximately 1,400 waste collection vehicles. The annual contract for waste collection is 500,000,000 SR. Daily cost per waste collection cycle for one truck is 970 SR. Benefits of Smart Collection : Case studies from Malaysia and South Korea showed cost reductions in waste collection by 50% and 43% respectively. If Riyadh adopts a conservative 40% reduction in waste collection costs through smart monitoring systems: Cost per cycle per truck would decrease to 582 SR/Day. The annual cost would drop to 297,402,000 SR, a savings of 202,598,000 SR. Potential of Recycling in Riyadh : Using U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) data as a reference for recycling potential: Plastic : 9.5% recyclable, with an annual volume of 61,898 tons. Potential revenue: 77,372,500 SR. Metal (aluminum) : 3.1% recyclable, with an annual volume of 5,592 tons. Potential revenue: 27,728,000 SR. Glass : 26% recyclable, with an annual volume of 49,236 tons. Potential revenue: 22,156,000 SR. Paper : 65% recyclable, with an annual volume of 423,510 tons. Potential revenue: 50,821,000 SR. Total Estimated Recycling Revenue : If all recyclable waste is utilized, the estimated annual revenue is 178,077,700 SR. Source : F K Alqahtani et al 2022 IOP Conf. Ser.: Earth Environ.
