Prior to 1 July 2022, this fund was named the Recycling Victoria Infrastructure Fund: Hazardous Waste stream.

The Circular Economy Infrastructure Fund aims to assist businesses and local government to increase the capacity and capability of Victoria’s resource recovery sector and recover high quality products.

The hazardous waste stream funds projects that will achieve one or more of the following outcomes:

  • Diversion of wastes from Category B landfill disposal.
  • Increased diversion of low-level contaminated soils from landfill disposal.
  • Increased recovery of hazardous wastes for reuse, recycling or energy recovery.
  • Improved management of hazardous wastes for reuse, recycling or energy recovery.

The 3 projects funded under this round are expected to create up to 18 new full time equivalent jobs in Victoria and increase resource recovery capacity for hazardous wastes by an estimated 260,500 tonnes per annum when completed.
