The first and only exposure in the steel market in Pakistan, ASML constitutes an interesting case study of a sustainable mid-sized steel company in the country. Factors such as continued economic growth in the country, an increased demand for steel, and regulations promoting domestic manufacturing created a favorable investment environment. The iron and steel sector is one of the most energy-intensive in the world. With a global capacity of just over 1.6bn tonnes (2016), the sector relies heavily on water, energy and labour [1]. Materials needed to make steel include iron ore, coal, limestone and recycled steel. Steel production methods have evolved significantly since the steel industry first began in the late 19th century.

  • Integrating Recycling and Disposal System for Solid Waste Management in Karachi
    INTEGRATING RECYCLING AND DISPOSAL SYSTEM FOR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN KARACHI By Dr. Mansoor Ali Arif Hasan (Final Draft, June 20, 2001) Field work and technical support: Engr. Mansoor Raza and the Urban Resource Centre, Karachi Arif Hasan, Architect and Planning Consultant, 37-D, Mohd. Ali Society, Karachi – 75350 – Pakistan Tel/Fax: (92.21) 452 2361 E-mail: [email protected] ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This report is the culmination of many years of work on solid waste management by Dr. Mansoor Ali and the Urban Resource Centre (URC). Its background and methodology is explained in the introduction. However, how this work began needs to be explained. In 1992, Dr. Mansoor Ali was doing his Master’s thesis at the University of Loughborough on solid waste and its relation to the recycling industry in Karachi. He sought the help of the URC for field investigations. The URC remained in touch with Dr. Mansoor Ali and continued this work around one question: Why does solid waste not reach the landfill site? And the answer invariably was that it was because of the requirements and location of the recycling industry and the scavenging system that served it. This led the URC to lobby for the creation of a “garbage city” where scavenging and recycling could be located. The Sindh Governor’s Task Force for Municipal Services accepted this concept for investigation and discussion purposes and after negotiations with interest groups, endorsed it. The logical conclusion of this endorsement was to prepare a pre-feasibility report and hence this study. Meanwhile, Dr. Mansoor over the years had continued to work on solid waste management issues related to Karachi.
