  1. ENVITECH-NET ForumThematic Session 2 Challenges of the Waste Directive Increasing recycling rates through waste management integration via the concept of Sustainable Growth Parks Gill Tatum, CEO Urban Mines

  2. State of the art : Sustainable Growth Park (SGP) - Urban Mines Definition • A modern, clean industrial park of 20-30 acres dedicated to:- • Waste material collection • Clustering recycling and reprocessing businesses • Environmental technology, innovation & business incubation • Education & training • Capable of adaptation ie/ SERP (Sustainable Energy Resource Park)

  3. Concept

  4. The Concept: • Integration, Management and added value of controlled wastes MSW (municipal) + C&I (Commercial & Industrial) + CD&E (Construction, demolition & excavation) • Clustering & Co-location of facilities regaining value from wastes, or from outputs derived from waste (heat, steam energy) • Concept exploits synergies between individual companies, one’s waste another’s resource • Opportunities to create added value through training, education, new business development, R&D • Business park focussed on environmental technologies sector, particularly (at South Kirkby UK ) waste and recycling

  5. Emerging Research to Support Development • Key for investment & added value accurate baseline information on waste arisings particularly C&I & CD&E • Need for good confidence levels on data sampling representative sectors and size • Need for good information on existing capacity • Modelling – gap analysis for feedstock verification & collection infrastructure • Modelling at national and member state levels

  6. Shape of the model Survey data C&I CD&E Tonnages by SIC, SOC & destination GMFM Households Employees Basic forecast model MSW, C&I tonnages etc to 2025 Waste by substance Substance by destination MSW data Tonnages Waste streams Destinations Sensitivities Waste generated: By employee By household Economic growth: On CD&E waste Capacity data

  7. Drivers Landfill Tax Legislation Fiscal Stimulus Sector Growth Energy Security Jobs Investment Skills Environment Oil Costs Sustainability Agenda Climate Change Public Opinion

  8. Drivers – Revised Waste Framework Directive Justification • Waste Hierarchy • 2015 & 2020 Targets separate collection (paper, metal, plastic & glass) • 2020 CD&E 75% weight re-use, recycling or recovery • MS’s every 6 yrs evaluation & adaptation of waste management plants “Can’t manage if can’t measure” Way to effectively integrate management of all waste types
