Abstract: The development of strategic emerging industries, centered on new productive forces, is crucial for promoting high-quality economic growth. However, the associated generation of new types of hazardous waste poses severe challenges to urban environmental management. Taking Shanghai as a case study, Material Flow Analysis (MFA) was employed to systematically investigate the current state of hazardous waste management in five major emerging industries: integrated circuits, biomedicine, new materials, and others. By collecting 2024 hazardous waste data from 211 key enterprises and establishing core indicators such as recycling utilization rate and external transfer rate, the generation characteristics, flow paths, and disposal bottlenecks of waste at both the municipal and industrial levels were deeply analyzed. The research revealed that emerging industries have become the primary source of hazardous waste in Shanghai. Among them, the new materials and integrated circuit sectors exhibit the highest waste generation intensity. HW06 (waste organic solvents and waste containing organic solvents), HW11 (distillation residues), and HW34 (waste acids) are the three largest categories by volume, possessing significant recycling potential yet remaining underutilized. Furthermore, local disposal capacity suffers from structural deficiencies, leading to a strong reliance on regional collaborative disposal. Accordingly, this paper proposes that strategies should be adopted from the perspectives of implementing industry-specific precision management (“one-policy-per-industry”), overcoming technical bottlenecks in the recycling of core waste streams, and optimizing the layout of local disposal facilities. These measures aim to address the complex situation of hazardous waste management in emerging industries and promote the synergistic development of Shanghai’s economy and environmental protection.
