Abstract: Abstract In recent years, construction and demolition (C&D) waste issues have become increasingly prominent, especially in developed urban areas, where a huge amount of waste generated can not be well recycled. Such as the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), where 11 cities are concentrated. To gain a deeper understanding of the current situation of C&D waste management in GBA is critical for developing “zero waste” cities. The study aims to explore the current situation of C&D waste management in GBA from the regional level via desktop survey. The results include: (1) The generation amount and treatment capacity of C&D waste in GBA; (2) The C&D waste treatment and disposal methods and related facilities in GBA; (3) The promulgation of policies and regulations related to C&D waste management in GBA. The paper is valuable as it provides fundamental data for subsequent research on C&D waste in GBA and references for other regions to improve waste management performance.
