While highlighting the theme of the 9th IMRC, Sanjay Mehta, President, MRAI said that "Indian government's policy thrust on the circular economy becomes an important step to acknowledge the power of recycling. With this, we are very confident that 'Recovery and Reuse of waste will play the key role in India's growth story at the time when India is moving towards the manufacturing intensive green economy."Talking about the event Amar Singh Secretary-general MRAI further shared, "The 9th edition of IMRC is being held at a key juncture when Indian eco-system is turning towards e-mobility and people are looking for answers about battery recycling or the correct way to dispose E-waste. IMRC aims to create awareness and spread knowledge about recycling various materials and its benefits to the Indian government."Inaugural Session on "Making India a Global Recycling Hub" will be the key feature of the event. "Recycling remains at a low while waste products are growing in volumes. The business prospects for the future are correspondingly high.

"Circular economy keeps resources such as products, materials, and energy in the economic system for as long as possible and at the highest value possible opined Prabhjot Sodhi, Director, MRAI. Today globally, it is the time of the hour to pursue a circular economy approach, which forces everyone to rethink, reimagine the way we produce, consume, and dispose products, about products, by changing product design and production processes and systems."Talking about opportunities and challenges in the recycling of EV Batteries in India ALN Rao, Director, MRAI, and CEO of Exigo Recycling Pvt Ltd said "The potential for recovering critical metals and minerals like cobalt, lithium, nickel, and manganese from used and discarded Li-ion batteries are going to play a significant role to make India self-sustainable in LIB sector."Started off as Metal Recycling Association of India, in 2011, the industry body of metal industry stakeholders metamorphosized into a full-blown trade body at the instance of the Government, which directed it to embrace and extend the benefits of its benevolent actions all recycling and recyclable commodity stakeholders, not limiting them to the metal sector alone. Today, under the new nomenclature 'Material Recycling Association of India' MRAI is the apex organization of the sub-continent representing the rapidly growing recycling industry.MRAI is an umbrella organization having under its wings most of the National and Regional Trade Associations and almost all of the international trade associations related and associated with recycling. Whether it is leading National Associations such as CII and FICCI or International Organizations such as the Bureau of International Recycling (BIR) and Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI), MRAI works shoulder to shoulder in promoting Responsible Recycling across the industries.
