도시 고형 폐기물 관리 시장 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석, 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Municipal Solid Waste Management Market reached USD 125 billion in 2024 and is projected to experience steady growth, with a CAGR of 3.3% from 2025 to 2034. This growth is fueled by a major shift from traditional waste disposal practices to more innovative, sustainable solutions. The growing awareness of environmental challenges and the urgency to combat climate change are driving the need for more efficient and eco-friendly waste management practices. Governments, industries, and local municipalities worldwide are prioritizing waste reduction, recycling, and the implementation of cleaner technologies, further accelerating the adoption of advanced waste management systems.

Increasing urbanization and rising waste production are playing significant roles in expanding the market. As cities grow and populations increase, the amount of municipal solid waste generated continues to rise, presenting both a challenge and an opportunity for the industry. Waste-to-energy technologies are becoming an integral part of the solution, allowing waste to be converted into electricity and other forms of energy. This not only reduces the reliance on landfills but also supports renewable energy initiatives. These technologies are gaining popularity as they help meet global sustainability targets, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and minimize waste.

The landfill sector, which remains a dominant waste management method, is expected to generate USD 110 billion by 2034. The use of landfills is still widespread, especially in developing regions where waste processing infrastructure is limited. However, ongoing advancements in landfill gas capture technologies and stricter environmental regulations are improving the sustainability of landfills, enabling them to meet modern waste disposal standards. Moreover, the conversion of landfill gases into energy is adding a new dimension to traditional landfills, making them more environmentally friendly and efficient.

In the residential sector, the demand for municipal waste management services is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2% through 2034. As urban housing expands, so does the need for efficient waste collection, disposal, and recycling systems. Rapid urbanization in developing nations is contributing significantly to residential waste volumes. As consumer behavior shifts, there is also a growing demand for more sophisticated recycling and waste processing methods in residential areas. This trend is shaping the market, with a stronger focus on sustainability and the reduction of waste going to landfills.

The U.S. municipal solid waste management market is set to reach USD 20 billion by 2034, driven by advancements in recycling technologies and large-scale recycling initiatives. With increasing government support and stricter regulations in place to enhance waste management and recycling efficiency, the market is shifting toward more sustainable and innovative practices. Growing environmental awareness, technological progress, and the integration of renewable energy solutions are key factors supporting the market's expansion. The increasing urban population and the need for more effective waste management systems are pushing the demand for municipal waste management solutions, propelling the market forward.
