WORKPACKAGE 4 • Collection/Transport (CT), • Sorting (SM), Landfill (L) • O. Tabasaran, D. Steinbach, A. Schultheis, K. Fischer
OBJECTIVES • Development of a general methodology for data collection to evaluate the efficiency. • Data collection in several cities and counties following the procedure developed. • Simulation with the target of improving the efficiency of CT-schemes, SMs and Ls analysed within the project. • If feasible, improvement measures will be implemented and assessed.
TASK 1 • Legislation inventory, methodology & reference • Inventory of legislation, methods for evaluating process efficiency and product quality in each participating country. • Development of a methodology for EU-wide efficiency evaluation. Characterisation of the whole process from the beginning to further-on processing of products and from depositing to emission. • Definition of reference cities/counties in each partner country for carrying out the tasks.
References • Cities / Counties • Austria: Vienna • France: Orleans • Germany: Stuttgart, Wolfenbüttel / Calw, Esslingen • Norway: Trondheim • Portugal: Lisbon
TASK 2 • Definition of data detail • Discussion of assessment parameters to be used in the model and the scenarios • Definition of waste material groups and landfill schemes to be used. • Definition of data detail (common denominator).
TASK 3 • Technical description • CT: system types, operating conditions, organisation (public-private) etc. • SM: system types (mixed waste, separately collected, positive-negative sorting), operating conditions, organisation (public-private) etc. • L: System types (kind of landfill – classes of landfill), operating conditions organisation (public-private).
Collection systems • Kerbside • MSW • paper • biowaste • green dot • hazardous • textiles • brown/white • goods • ... • Bring • paper • hazardous • textiles • brown/white • goods • ... • Collection • Transport • container system • collection interval • urban/rural area • kind and number • of vehicles • staff • ... • Costs • equipment • vehicle maintenance • wages • fuel costs/ taxes • ... • Environment • fuel consumption • emissions (CO2, soot • smoke, noise, etc.) • ...
Sorting (MRF) • Input • MSW • separately • collected • materials • green dot • materials • Output • metals • glass • paper • plastics • Sorting • Mechanical pre-treatment • (magnetic separation) • Sorting/ screening • Residues • sieving rests • foreign material
Landfill • Input • MSW • pre-sorted waste • pre-treated waste • (MBPT, incineration) • ... • Landfill • landfill class • placement of waste • sealing systems • gas collection (active/passive) • gas use (flare, energy use) • leachate collection • leachate purification • ... • Costs • construction • after-care • staff • maintenance • ... • Environment • emissions (CO2, • CH4, leachate) • land consumption • ...
TASK 4 • Data collection and standardisation • Definition of standardised data gathering sheets. • Data collection and analysis of the existing CT-, SM-, L- systems at locations of task 1. • Data standardisation.
TASK 5 Matter modelling Material flow schemes (mass balance) – efficiency evaluation, output products CT: influence of fee systems. SM: effects of CT on SM flow schemes, influence of markets (local, regional, national, trans-national). L: gas (CO2, CH4) sewage (leachate), solid matter, description of matter behaviour, landfill effects on environment.
TASK 6 • Integrated modelling and transfer know-how • Definition of model parameters. • Transfer of models for WP7.
Deliverables • Legislation survey on CT, SM, L operations and methods for evaluation the overall efficiency, the secondary raw material quality and the quality of material for final storage in the participating countries. • Comparable data (basis) for collection/transport systems, sorting plants/MRFs and landfills in European member states for modelling, assessment and decision finding.
Methodology for evaluating the overall efficiency of CT, SM, L in Europe. • Suggestions for improving process efficiency of CT, SM, L analysed within the project. • Reports on implementation and assessment of improvement measures.
Open questions? • Number of cities/counties? • Data detail: common denominator (e.g. comparison between Lisbon-Stuttgart: container system, collectors per trucks, vehicles, maintenance intervals of vehicles, etc.? • Reference quantity (MSW definition - national, EU)? • Assessment criteria (product quality, costs, environment)? • Effects on landfill (e.g. reduction of organic - how integrated in assessment scheme)?
