Republic of Mauritius - Industrial Waste Assessment: Opportunities for Industrial Symbiosis

Organisation :
Partnership for Action on Green Economy (PAGE)

The Partnership for Action on Green Economy (PAGE) supported the Mauritian government in the identification of the industrial wastes that could become part of industrial symbiosis programmes. The outcome of this report, Republic of Mauritius - Industrial Waste Assessment: Opportunities for Industrial Symbiosis provides the quantification at the national scale of different waste types - generated in the main selected industries of Mauritius - that can be reused, recycled or from which energy can be recovered, by the same or a different industry. Specific opportunities to set up industrial symbiosis activities and expand the sectors of recovery from waste are identified. The review of the legislative and institutional framework for waste management identified constraints impacting on the recovery of materials and energy from industrial solid waste. A set of recommendations – giving relevance to discussions involving several stakeholders - is presented addressing relevant policy issues.
