Municipal solid waste collection and sorting
Whether in historically rich, time-honored neighborhoods or in rapidly developing emerging cities, Veolia is committed to providing tailored solutions for classifying, collecting, and transporting domestic waste from its source, seamlessly integrating in and rapidly upgrading the existing local sanitation systems and equipment in the most economically practical manner, thus achieving a low-carbon waste collection and transportation process.
Veolia has developed innovative solutions for automated waste sorting, which streamline the process of identifying and separation of materials from waste, enhancing recycling rates and ensuring the occupational safety of employees.
Business Case
SHINEWAY, as the JV between Veolia and Shanying, is building and operating a number of renewable resource sorting centers to accomplish the plan of Carbon neutral, Recyclables classification and Full-category recycling. The strategy will be implemented in many targeted cities, in response to the national’s "Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality" policy.
Veolia will also provide Shanying Group with a dedicated carbon reduction solution which is tailored to the paper industry.
The 1st sorting center will be put into operation by the end of 2023, with the capacity of all types of recycled waste will reach 50,000 tons/year.

Non-recyclable non-hazardous waste is transported to incineration plants or landfills. Veolia provides stable treatment of municipal waste such as waste to energy and landfill. Whether for large or small urban centers, Veolia provides continuing and long-term waste management services in conjunction with the requirements of municipal authorities.

Integrated management of municipal solid waste
In light of the rapidly increasing volume of waste in today's society, addressing the pressing contradiction between the high growth rate of household waste and the limited capacity of existing waste treatment facilities has become an urgent matter. Additionally, the diversity of waste sources and the intricate composition of waste materials bring to the forefront the growing constraints associated with the application of a single processing method.
Drawing from its achievements in Europe, Veolia is able to offer total solutions and services for integrated management and treatment to municipal authorities and similar projects from the industry.
Business Case
In 2012, Veolia initiated a new waste management partnership with the administrative authorities of London's Southwark district, implementing a high-standard waste collection service system for the city, and built an integrated treatment center of domestic waste with an annual processing capacity exceeding 120,000 tons.
