Our ADL community, with 200 enthusiastic energy consultants and knowledge experts, started working on this report prior to the ongoing Ukraine crisis. Before, as a society, we were used to power and gas being available uninterrupted 365 days a year. The current conflict in Europe at the doorstep of many of our colleagues — as well as conflicts in the last century, like the oil crisis of the 1970s and the Gulf War in the 1980s — remind us how fragile energy supply can be.
In the face of urgent climate action, waste and water management are evolving from basic public services to strategic imperatives. Extreme weather events like droughts and floods now affect larger populations, necessitating robust and adaptable systems. With resources dwindling and environmental concerns escalating, shifting to circular production models has become critical. Sustainable waste and water management are essential for building resilient societies that endure volatility and reduce carbon emissions.
These issues have far-reaching impacts, highlighting the need for proactive adaptation and the development of secure systems. Our comprehensive view of sector dynamics and trends along the waste and water value chains is shaped by technology insights and the perspectives of operators, consumers, and regulators. ADL’s ambidextrous mindset leads to impactful, innovative solutions and resourceful management, demonstrating a bold direction for the future.
Waste management - Tackling the challenge in emerging countries
In recent years, emerging nations have witnessed economic growth that has positively impacted living standards, driving up consumption, resources usage, and, consequently, waste production. However, the rapid growth in generated waste volumes and weak regulations to control imported waste have overwhelmed waste management systems and resulted in negative environmental, medical, and economic repercussions.
OIL, PETROCHEMICALS & WATER: FINDING A NEW EQUILIBRIUM
Water is a vital resource for human life — and for many industrial processes. Water scarcity is a growing global trend, exacerbated by climate change and increasing demand.
European battery recycling: An emerging cross-industry convergence
The rise of electric vehicles (EVs) and associated battery gigafactories is pushing forward the creation of a European closed-loop battery recycling value chain. Increased recycling demand, intensified EU regulations, and a strong desire to localize supply chains and safeguard critical raw materials is driving multiple opportunities.
