  1. System Analyses of Forestry, Forest Products and Recovered Wood – Activities and Results from COST Action E9 and E31 Gerfried Jungmeier International Conference ”Efficient Use of Biomass for Greenhouse Gas Mitigation“ Östersund, Sweden, September 30 – October 1, 2003

  2. Scope&Goal Recovered Wood Allocation Energy Aspects in LCA Waste Treatment Option Overview Outlook Activities in COST Action E31 Results of COST Action E9 Introduction

  3. COST Action E9 and E31 • What is COST? • European Co-operation in the field of Science and Technical Research • Support from European Commission • Networking activity • COST Action E9 „Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Forestry and Forest Products“ (1997 – 2001, 4 Working Groups) • Production: energy, carbon, and other material cycle • Land use • End of life: recycling, disposal and energy production • Methodology • COST Action E31 „Management of Recovered Wood“ (2002 – 2006; 2 Working Groups) • European Management of Recovered Wood • Treatment Option for Recovered Wood

  13. LCA bio- energy + LCA conventional energy - product Describe criteria for the substitution of energy! In LCA of Wood Products Substitute Bioenergy LCA wood- product LCA non-wooden product =

  14. Criteria for Energy Substitution Socio-economic and other factors Costs Kind of fossil fuel substituted Kind of energy output Substitution of fossil energy State of technology Quality of energy output Energy supply/demand characteristics substitution rate < 100%

  27. What is „Recovered Wood“ in COST Action E31? • Recovered wood includes all kinds of wooden material that is available at the end of its use as a wooden product (“post-consumer” or “post-use” wood). • Recovered wood mainly comprises • packaging materials, • demolition wood, • timber from building sites and • fractions of used wood from residential, industrial & commercial activities. • Therefore not in the scope of COST E31are • forestry residues (tops, thinnings and branches) from forest operations and • black liqueur from pulp production.

  28. Main focus of COST Action E31 Wood processing side Wood utilisation side - saw mill - wood manufacturing industry - particle board industry - construction and demolition activities - residential and commercial sectors - packaging collection Origins of „Recovered Wood“

  29. Analysis of management approaches for recovered wood in European countries Improvement of databases on technical, economical, ecological and statistical information Examine potentials of recovered wood as • secondary raw materials • energy sources Identify promising approaches for implementation of advanced systems for the management of recovered wood Objectives COST Action E31 „Management of Recovered Wood“

  30. The Working Triangle Multi-disciplinary Seminars, Workshops and Conferences Workgroup 1 „European Management of Recovered Wood“ Workgroup 2 „Treatment Options for Recovered Wood“

  31. Countries Participating in COST Action E31 http://www.ctib-tchn.be/coste31 16 Countries signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) 3 Countries interested

  32. Expand the relevant data base Provide strategic information for stakeholders Bring together a multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural ‘team’ Establish a European forum for the management of recovered wood Give an overview of the different management options for recovered wood Benefits of COST Action E31
