Car battery recycling plant

Study request

The project is a battery recycling plant; the project recycles used batteries by crushing the battery after emptying it of acids into medium-sized pieces; to extract lead and plastic, and then these outputs are used in new industries. The project targets plastic factories and lead factories through its production process, as well as factories that produce new batteries.

Project Description

Mashroo3k for Economic and Administrative Consultancy has prepared a feasibility study for a car battery recycling plant project, analyzing all aspects related to supply, demand, and market conditions. After thorough examination and review, it was found that there is a pressing need for the plant’s outputs, namely lead and plastic. The plant will provide high-quality products at competitive prices, making it attractive to target factories that will demand its products as soon as they are available in the market. The plant will rely on skilled technical expertise, enabling it to capture a significant share of the existing market gap. This project is considered an important industrial venture with substantial economic value, as it helps protect the environment from the hazards of used batteries. It represents a promising investment opportunity that offers significant returns to investors.

In recent years, Saudi Arabia has turned its attention to the recycling sector, recognizing its importance in achieving the goals of Vision 2030 and its potential to drive the economy towards sustainable development. In 2017, the Saudi Investment Recycling Company (SIRC) was established with the support of the Crown Prince, aiming to save billions of riyals lost annually from the Kingdom’s treasury due to the lack of focus on recycling industries. These lost funds have been approximately estimated to range between 30 billion and 70 billion SAR.

To reassure our clients about investing in this sector, we will present here the most important indicators and results of the sector according to the latest statistics available to us:

Conservatively estimated, global reports indicate that Saudi Arabia produces 15 million tons of municipal solid waste annually, at a rate of 1.4 kg per person. This amount is expected to double to 30 million tons by 2033, driven by a population growth of 3.4%.
The amount of demolition and construction waste exceeded 14,399,005 tons.
The amount of textile waste exceeded 959,535 tons.
The amount of glass waste is estimated at 892,096 tons.
Metal waste has exceeded 1,096,754 tons in recent years.
The amount of plastic waste reached 2,296,978 tons.
The amount of cardboard waste reaches 2,854,321 tons.
Organic waste is estimated at 9,757,544 tons.
406 landfills is the total number of landfills in the Kingdom.

Mashroo3k affirms that the volume of waste in Saudi Arabia now exceeds 45 million tons annually. With the Kingdom determined to increase the recycling rate from 1% to 80% by 2035, the company believes that investing in this vital sector will be highly profitable.

Regarding the prospects of the recycling and energy industry, we can mention the following:

In the Kingdom, we can save 45,000 terajoules of energy by recycling glass and metals alone.
3 TWh of electricity could be generated annually if all food waste in Saudi Arabia was used within the walls of biogas plants.
We could generate 1-1.6 TWh of electricity in Saudi Arabia annually if plastic and other mixed waste were processed, Like this: (Paper, cardboard, wood, textiles, leather, etc.) in pyrolysis processes.

Mashroo3k for Economic Consultancy and Market Research emphasizes that recycling is one of the promising sectors in Saudi Arabia, and its projects will present genuine investment opportunities, especially as the Kingdom moves towards a green economy. Environmental preservation has become a top priority for the wise leadership, as clearly reflected in Vision 2030.
