USE-IT Ethekwini Waste Materials Recovery Industry Development Cluster Details
USE-IT has been established by the eThekwini Municipality as a non-profit organisation to research and develop waste beneficiation technologies in the eThekwini Metropolitan Area with the aim of diverting waste from landfill and creating jobs in the green economy. USE-IT currently has several key focus areas for waste diversion and project implementation, namely: ● New, environmentally-friendly building materials from builder's rubble, demolition waste and soil fill that outperform and are cheaper than current building materials ● Diverting organic wastes and sludge through several beneficiation technologies to create Bio-Organic Fertilizers that outperform chemical fertilizers without the negative environmental impacts ● Composite technologies – using blends of different wastes and virgin materials to create environmentally-friendly and thermally efficient building materials and products for outdoor applications ● Electronic Waste – addressing renovation, reuse and responsible recycling of old computers, cell phones, VCR's, DVD machines, etc. with a focus on beneficiation technologies on all waste components of this increasing waste stream ● Assessing waste beneficiation and remanufacturing technologies for standard recyclable materials such as paper, cardboard, plastic, glass and metals ● Addressing tyre recycling opportunities with a focus on remanufactured products ● Waste minimization techniques and approaches ● Information dissemination, active networking and engagement with industry, the private sector, public sector and international finance and development agencies.
