As part of our ongoing commitment to the Zero Waste Masterplan, companies are highly encouraged to incorporate circular economy principles in their business models and operations. These principles involve maximising resource recovery and utilisation and minimising waste generation from processes, which not only reduces the volume of waste sent to our only landfill but also channels valuable secondary raw materials back to the industry. Here are some circular economy practices which are adopted in the toxic industrial waste management sector.
- Cramoil Singapore Pte Ltd (Toxic Industrial Waste Collector)
- Implemented multiple-phase separations process (e.g. solvent recovery systems) to recover up to 40% of recyclable solvents from liquid toxic industrial waste for reuse.
- Recovery of treatable wastewater through evaporation, stripping and wastewater treatment technology. This reduces Cramoil’s consumption of PUB NEWater for up to 40 % and its trade effluent discharges.
- Veolia ES Singapore Industrial Pte Ltd (Toxic Industrial Waste Collector)
- Utilisation of wastewater treatment facility to recycle wastewater collected from industry for in-house operations. This reduces Veolia’s consumption of PUB NEWater and its trade effluent discharges.
If you wish to feature circular economy practices adopted by toxic industrial waste collectors on the NEA website, please submit requests through our feedback channels such as the Online Feedback Form available on the NEA website, the myENV or OneService mobile application.
