The waste to fuel technology market currently faces several challenges. High capital costs and investment risks associated with the commercialization of new waste to fuel plants pose significant barriers. Public resistance to facility siting and concerns over emissions also remain hurdles. The heterogeneous and variable composition of municipal solid waste streams complicates fuel production processes. Separating non-biodegradable contaminants like plastics and metals increases costs. Establishing economically viable scale remains a challenge given transport costs of collecting widespread waste sources.
Market Opportunities: Growing regulatory support
The waste to fuel technology market also presents many opportunities. Globally, over 2 billion tons of municipal solid waste is landfilled or burnt each year, representing an abundant low-cost fuel feedstock. Government mandates and policies in many countries seek to decrease landfill volumes. This regulatory support drives market demand. Population growth and increasing urbanization also ensure a growing waste stream.
