Annual Impact of N10.05 billion
Waste Plastic Circular Economy
12,000 ton per annum Waste Plastic Collection, Sorting, Processing & Recycling Plant positively impacts the Nigerian Economy as follows: –
-
Provides new wealth from plastic waste opportunities for thousands of poor Nigerians
-
Provides direct payments of N2.96 billion per year via Poverty Reduction Development ‘Waste to Wealth’ Process to 5,000 Nigerians
-
Generates a linear to circular Economy of N10.05 billion Naira per year
-
Generates an indirect employment creation of 1,500 workers for waste plastic collection and shipment supply chain.
-
Creates a direct employment creation of 500 workers, local content recycling, reprocessing, and manufacturing costs with annual salaries payments of N2.32 billion.
-
Fills the void of required national environmental infrastructure for 12,000 tons waste plastic management and pollution control per annum
-
Reduces global CO2 levels by 9,039 tons – in line with the UN emission reduction goals.
-
Provides a local manufacturing base of 10,000 tons of Plastic Raw material per annum.
-
Saves the Nigerian Economy of N11.3 billion Naira from foreign exchange on the alternate importation of 10,000 tons of Virgin Plastic Resin (raw materials) per annum.
-
In a 10-year span of this project, we would have generated a net circular economy worth N240 billion… no brainer !
-
Creates earning opportunities of up to Carbon Credits for Nigeria from the UNDP
-
Compliant as per the UN Resolution UNEA-5.2 – entitled; ‘End Plastic Pollution: Towards an Internationally Legally Binding Instrument’.
