Title: Organic wastes: Quantities, composition, collection and present treatment


1
Organic wastes Quantities, composition,
collection and present treatment
  • HÃ¥kan Jönsson
  • Professor
  • Hakan.Jonsson_at_et.slu.se
  • Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences

2
Waste terminology
  • Waste (avfall) - items, materials and substances
    which the owner discards of, intends to discard
    of or is obliged to discard of according to
    directive 91/156/EEG
  • Household waste (HushÃ¥llsavfall) Normal waste
    from a household In Sweden latrine and sludge
    from septic tanks are included (and so is source
    separated urine)
  • Biowaste (compostable, lätt nedbrytbart avfall,
    komposterbart) biologically degradable waste
  • Kitchen waste, food waste (Köksavfall, matavfall)
    Biodegradable waste from kitchens, from food
    preparation and left-overs.
  • Latrine (latrin) mixture of urine and faeces
  • Bulky waste (grovavfall) household waste that
    is to bulky to be collected in bags or bins

3
Waste terminology 2
  • Combustible waste (brännbart avfall) Waste which
    can burn by itself waste with a certain energy
    content.
  • Hazardous waste (farligt avfall) Waste
    according to directive 91/689/EEG certain
    properties and/or content

4
Waste terminology 3
  • Reusability (Ã¥teranvändning) components
  • Recyclability, recoverability (Ã¥tervinning och
    materialåtervinning) material and substances
  • Recycling centre (Ã¥tervinningscentral) Large
    manned centre for recovering recyclable and
    recoverable materials, hazardous waste etc.
  • Recycling station (Ã¥tervinningsstation) Small
    unmanned station for recovering recyclable and
    recoverable materials, hazardous waste etc.

5
EU Waste hierarchy
  • EU council - parliament compromise 20/10/2008 and
    new waste directive
  • 1. Prevent generation (Minimera uppkomst)
  • 2. Reuse product/component (Ã…teranvänd produkt)
    -e.g. bottles
  • 3. Recycle materials (Ã…tervinn material) -
    glas, plastics, compost, digestion residue)
  • 4. Other recovery - energy etc. (Annan
    återvinning, energi etc.) incinerate, digest
    (förbränn, röta)
  • 5. Safe and environmentally safe disposal (Säkert
    slutligt bortskaffande) landfilling of inert
    waste (deponering av icke nedbrytbart avfall)
  • Member States shall take measures to encourage
    the options that deliver the best overall
    environmental outcome i.e. the hierarchy can be
    diverged from.

6
EU Waste Goals and Means
  • EU coucil - parlament compromise 20/10/2008
  • 2011 Eco-design policy focusing on durable,
    reusable and recyclable products.
  • 2014 Setting waste prevention and decoupling
    objectives for 2020.
  • Annual review of progress in the implementation
    of waste prevention program.

7
EU Waste Goals
  • EU council - parliament compromise 20/10/2008
  • Reuse and recycling
  • By 2015 separate collection at least of paper,
    metal, plastic and glass.
  • By 2020 re-use and recycling of at least paper,
    metal, plastic and glass from households minimum
    overall 50 by weight.
  • By 2020 re-use, recycling and other material
    recovery, including backfilling of non-hazardous
    construction and demolition waste minimum 70 by
    weight.
  • Bio-waste Member States must encourage the
    separate collection of bio-waste with a view to
    the composting and digestion of bio-waste.
  • End-of-waste Criteria should be considered at
    least for paper, glass, metal, tires and
    textiles.
  • Reclassification of hazardous waste as
    non-hazardous waste may not be achieved by
    diluting or mixing the waste with the aim of
    lowering the initial concentrations of hazardous
    substances.

Waste Swedish goals
  • 16 national environmental quality goals (wordings
    under revision)
  • Objectives good health, environment and resource
    efficiency
  • Limited effect on the climate
  • Emissions of green house gases - Average for
    2008-2012 should be 4 less than 1990.
  • Good built environment (God bebyggd miljö)
  • Decreased waste
  • Landfilling halved Should decrease by 50 1994
    to 2005
  • Waste generation should not increase
  • 35 of food waste from households should be
    treated biologically by 2010, and 100 of
    suitable corresponding industrial waste
  • 60 of sewage phosphorus should be recycled to
    productive land by 2015.
  • Non-toxic environment (Giftfri miljö)
  • 2015 should the exposure of the population to Cd
    be at a safe level
  • Ban from 2007 on Hg and persistent
    bio-accumulating carcinogenic, mutagenic and
    reproduction disruptive substances
  • Ban from 2010 on Cd and Pb and other persistent
    bio-accumulating organic substances

10
Waste Swedish means
  • Waste must be sorted (illegal to incinerate or
    landfill unsorted waste)
  • Illegal to landfill sorted combustible waste from
    2002
  • Illegal to landfill biowaste from 2005
  • Landfill tax (2000 250 SEK/ton, 2005 370 SEK
    SEK/ton, and since 2006 435 SEK/ton).
  • Tax on the fossil energy content going to waste
    incineration (2006 71- 487 SEK/ton) depending on
    how energy is utilized (was removed Oct 2010).
  • Producer responsibility for products newsprint,
    office paper, packaging materials, electric
    electronic, cars tyres)

11
Biowaste - Sweden
  • 35 of food waste from households should be
    treated biologically (including home composting)
    by 2010, and 100 of suitable corresponding
    industrial waste
  • Estimated amount ? 350.000 ton, 39 kg/pers,yr
  • Estimated additional cost 155 mill SEK/yr
  • Reasons
  • Save fossil resources recycle nutrients and
    humus
  • Minimize landfilling
  • Small scale less transports
  • Encourages environmental conscience and thus a
    non-toxic environment
  • Improves incinerator utilization

12
Responsibilities
  • Municipality responsible for all household
    waste (including septic sludge, source separated
    urine etc.) and similar waste from activities,
    but excluding source separated producer
    responsible waste
  • Producers for waste with product responsibility
    (newsprint, office paper, packaging, electric
    electronic, cars tires) but municipalities
    are responsible for the historic electric waste
    of the households
  • Enterprises and businesses responsible for
    their own waste, except for the hazardous waste
    in municipalities which have decided to enlarge
    their responsibility to all hazardous waste in
    the municipality
