Vietnam
Climate targets: Waste
-
-
Key target until 2030: The rate of municipal solid waste that is collected and treated in compliance with the regulated standards reaches 95%; the proportion of municipal solid waste that is treated with the direct burial method accounts for only 10% of the waste collected;Key target until 2050: The rate of solid waste that is collected and treated in compliance with national standards reaches 100%, while the burial of organic solid waste and recyclable waste are reduced to a minimum; 100% of urban areas have sewage systems that are synchronously built and refined so as to eliminate urban flooding
-
By 2030, waste sector reduces 60,7% greenhouse gas emissions compared to the business as usual (BAU) scenario, emission does not exceed 18 million tonne of CO2td
-
By 2050, waste sector reduces 90,7% greenhouse gas emissions compared to the business as usual (BAU) scenario, emission does not exceed 8 million tonne of CO2td
-
Increase the utilization rate of wastes generated from industrial/agricultural plants for energy purposes from 45% in 2015 to 50% in 2020, approx. 60% in 2030 and 70% in 2050.
-
Increase the disposal rate of animal wastes for energy purpose (biogas) from about 5% in 2015 to 10% in 2020, approx. 50% in 2030, and most of animal wastes shall be disposed in 2050
-
Increase the disposal rate of municipal wastes for energy purpose from a current negligible level to 30% in 2020, approx. 70% in 2030, and most of municipal wastes shall be used for energy purpose in 2050
-
By 2030, decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 60,7% in waste treatment compared to BAU
