Waste from industrial, municipal, agricultural, construction and demolition (C&D) and other processes normally contain base materials in the form of scrap, like ferrous metal, non-ferrous metals, plastics and glass. In India, recycling rates are way below international benchmarks — for packaging paper, it is 27 per cent; plastics, 60 per cent; and metals, a mere 20-25 per cent. In Scandinavian countries, the average recycling rates have reached 90 per cent.

In Scandinavian countries, the average recycling rates have reached 90 per cent.Indian recycling rates are languishingly low for a variety of reasons. First, there is neither strong social awareness nor enough political will to promote recycling as a way of life. Second, waste collection and segregation mechanism is largely unorganised leading to scrap contamination. Third, most municipal infrastructure is dated and inadequate in terms of collection, transportation and scrap yards. And, fourth, appropriate technologies to maximise recovery from recycling are still nascent. Indian recyclers have no choice but to depend mainly on imports for quality scrap.

Third, most municipal infrastructure is dated and inadequate in terms of collection, transportation and scrap yards. And, fourth, appropriate technologies to maximise recovery from recycling are still nascent. Indian recyclers have no choice but to depend mainly on imports for quality scrap.Consequently, India is the third largest importer of various types of scrap material. Even imports from countries having Free Trade Agreement (FTAs) with India are not cheap because suppliers mark up their prices to bring parity with duty added price of scrap from non-FTA countries.
