Brazilian Municipal Waste Management Services Growth Opportunities

Brazilian Municipal Waste Management Services Growth Opportunities

The municipal waste management services market in Brazil is growing. The federal government has implemented public policies and plans, such as the National Basic Sanitation Plan (PLANSAB), to universalize basic sanitation and increase municipal waste collection levels by 2033. It aims to improve differentiated waste collection rates and eliminate improper or illegal waste disposal sites. Recent changes in legislation also encourage greater participation of the private sector in tenders and future concessions.

Boosting the rates of waste separation and recycling is a growing concern in the market. The government and companies seek to incorporate more efficient technologies at the different stages of the waste management value chain. The market is set to see the introduction of advanced technologies and circular economy solutions that mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and enhance resource recovery, such as waste-to-energy plants that will open up opportunities for new businesses in the country. With the recent legislative changes, drive to meet the objectives of the PLANSAB by 2033, and growing digital transformation, Brazil’s municipal waste management services market is positioned for dynamic growth.
