Pathway To Zero Waste’s Catalytic
Effect is Spreading Fast
By Chindarat Taylor, director, Pathway To Zero Waste

PTZW – Pathway To Zero Waste
Over the next five years the South East is destined to produce more construction and demolition (C&D) waste than any other region in the UK. With landfill costs increasing annually and capacity fast running out, this disposal method is not only financially and environmentally damaging, it is quickly becoming practically impossible. Chindarat Taylor, director of Pathway To Zero Waste, explains how we need to take a catalytic route to zero waste, kick-starting the economy along the way.

The UK’s capacity for processing construction demolition and excavation (CDE) waste into new products is still failing far short of the mark. Nowhere is the need to speed up delivery more apparent than in the South-East where landfill space will run out in 3-5 years. However, a new programme headed by former oil industry operations manager Dr Chindarat Taylor is promising recyclers change. MQR talked to the ‘can-do’ chemist to find out more about Pathways To Zero Waste (PTZW).
