WHAT A WASTE: Solid Waste Management in Asia RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS * Solid waste data is largely unreliable. This report contains one of the most comprehensive compilations of municipal solid waste data in Asia; yet, due to inconsistencies in data recording, definitions, collectionmethods, and seasonal variations, the data can only be considered approximate, albeit more accurate than most. For planning purposes, however, the data presented in this report should be sufficient. * The urban areas of Asia now spend about US$25billion on solid waste management per year; this figure will increase to at least US$50 billion in 2025. Today's daily waste generation rate is about 760,000tonnes. By 2025, this rate will be increased to about 1.8 million tonnes per day * Japan spends about ten times more for waste disposal than collection costs (mostly incineration costs). Total waste management costs in low income countries are usually more than 80 percent for collection costs. Lower cost landfilling is usually a more practical waste disposal option than incineration. THE URBANAREAS e Municipal governments are usually the responsible agency for solid waste OF ASIA NOW SPEND collection and disposal, but the magnitude of the problem is well beyond ABOUTUS$25 the ability of any municipal government. They need help. In addition to other levels of government, businesses and the general community need to BILLIONON SOLID be more involved in waste management. WASTE MANAGEMENT e Generally, solid waste planners place too much emphasis on residential PER YEAR;THIS waste; this waste represents only about 30 percent of the overall municipal FIGUREWILL waste stream but often receives the lion's share of attention. INCREASE TO ABOUT • The waste components requiring priority attention in Asia are organics and paper. US$47 BILLION IN * Indonesia and the Philippines as well as parts of China and India are the 2025. Asian countries facing the greatest waste management challenge, basecdon projected waste generation rates and relative affluence to deal with the problem. * In terms of waste management trends, no region of the world faces a greater need to break the inextricable link between waste generation rates and affluence than Asia. For example, if Asia followvslife style trends of the US and Canada (as Hong Kong already seems to be doing) versus the more typical European urban resident, the world would need to supply about 500 million tonnes more resources in 2025. * Asia should pursue regional approaches to many solid waste management problems, e.g., packaging regulations and import/export rules. * Urban residents generate two to three times more solid waste than their fellow rural citizens. * Municipalities should charge for waste disposal, and possibly collection,based on generation rates. * Industrialized countries contain 16 percent of the world's population but use about 75 percent of the world's paper supply. Residents of India, Indonesia, and China, for example, are aspiring to be as affluent as more industrialized nations. This would require a doubling of the world's current level of paper production.

  • 2013 Postconsumer Plastics Recycling in Canada
    2013 Postconsumer Plastics Recycling in Canada February 2015 Prepared by Moore Recycling Associates for the Canadian Plastics Industry Association Moore Recycling Associates Inc PO Box 1327 Sonoma, CA 95476 707-935-3390 707-935-1998! www.MooreRecycling.com 2013 Postconsumer Plastics Recycling in Canada 1 Introduction This is the fifth year that Moore Recycling Associates has conducted a survey to determine the amount of postconsumer plastic recovered in Canada for recycling. This report documents how much Canadian postconsumer plastic was collected and reclaimed by U.S or Canadian reclaimers and how much was sold to overseas markets. This study is sponsored by the Canadian Plastic Industry Association (CPIA) and is made possible by the businesses that cooperated by providing data. Executive Summary In 2013, at least 311.5 million kilograms of postconsumer (including commercial)1 plastic material in Canada was collected for recycling. This represents a 9% increase in recycling over 2012, mostly due to a significant increase in purchases by domestic reclaimers. Postconsumer Plastic Collected (kgs) 400,000,000 300,000,000 200,000,000 100,000,000 0 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 PET Bottles HDPE Bottles PP Bottles Non-bottle Rigid Film Foam 1 Throughout this report the term “postconsumer” refers to plastics that have been used for their intended purpose by consumers and by businesses. Commercial materials are often recovered outside of curbside or drop-off collection programs and include items such as totes, pallets, crates, and other commercial packaging (this report does not cover the recycling of industrial plastic, which the U.S. EPA defines as materials, such as scrap and trimmings, that are generated in manufacturing and converting processes).

Disclaimer The assumptions and parameters used in the plastics waste management value chain modelling are based on a review of literature, industry reports and national statistics, as well as consultations completed with industry stakeholders. The Canadian Plastics Industry Association (CPIA) and the Chemistry Industry Association of Canada (CIAC) were consulted to ensure representation of the plastic resin industry. Stewardship organizations such as the Canadian Stewardship Services Alliances (CSSA) and Éco Entreprises Québec were consulted to gather information on residential packaging plastic waste collection and associated costs. Several provincial ministries, government agencies such as RECYC-QUÉBEC, and industry associations were consulted to inform the current state of recycling within their sector or region. To the extent possible, information gathered was cross-checked with additional sources of information such as data from Statistics Canada Waste Management Information Survey (WMIS) and reports such as the 2016 Post-consumer Plastics Recycling in Canada report from More Recycling (More Recycling, 2018). For greenhouse gas emissions life cycle data from previous studies conducted in Europe and from recognized lifecycle databases has been leveraged to provide greenhouse gas emissions factors for key steps of the value chain.

Pehlken and E. Essadiqi ABSTRACT This report was supported by the Enhanced Recycling Program of Action Plan 2000 on Climate Change (managed by the Mineral and Metals Sector of Natural Resources Canada). Data from the provinces and the Canadian Association of Tire Recycling Agencies (CATRA) were collected from August 2004 to February 2005 with the objective of developing a clear picture of tire recovery and recycling in Canada, and the environmental impacts – including greenhouse- gas emissions (GHG) – of current and future practices. This study of “Scrap Tire Recycling in Canada” shows there is a great market potential for the processing of scrap tires into new applications and value-added products. Thanks to well- operated tire programs in nearly every Canadian province (only Ontario is currently developing its program), scrap tires are now being processed using several techniques.

By matching funds with other partners, this program supports initiatives that enhance recycling practices and provide GHG emission reductions. Page i Scan of Metals and Minerals Recycling Programs and Associated Climate Change Impacts Executive Summary The extent and effectiveness of programs diverting metals and minerals waste varies significantly across Canada, as well as internationally. The significant differences in approaches to diverting these materials from the waste stream presents obstacles to programs managers attempting to assess the best approach to program development. This project included the identification of policies and programs within Canada, as well as internationally, that address the diversion of metals and minerals. Using available program data where possible, these programs were evaluated using a number of factors to measure their effectiveness. Effectiveness was then correlated to program approach to assess the level of success of various program types. To provide local expertise and national perspective to the project, non- governmental organizations across the country were solicited as project partners, with the Recycling Council of Alberta as the project coordinator.
