ALATAN is an AI-adaptive data network designed for waste and environmental management through circular economy solutions. It leverages artificial intelligence to collect, analyse, and apply data that drive smarter decisions, enhance resource recovery, and support sustainable community development.
At ALATAN, we work with communities and policymakers to drive meaningful change through effective waste management and recycling programmes. Our initiatives improve the livelihoods of the poorest and most marginalised populations, promote environmental protection, and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable planet—locally and globally. This is an AI-driven solution with real purpose—to transform lives and protect the environment.
Understanding the impact of waste on our environment

Bottles and jars; color-sorted glass can be endlessly recycled.
Non-reactive materials like sand, concrete, ceramics and demolition debris.
