1 Applying the waste hierarchy to wood Tim Hutchinson Director - Returnable Packaging Services
2 Wood and pallet factoids! The UK is one of the least wooded places in Europe!
3 Wood and pallet factoids! In one year an acre of wood can absorb as much carbon as is produced by a car driven for 8000 miles!
4 Wood and pallet factoids! In the UK there are more pallets than people!
5 Wood and pallet factoids! The term touch wood or knock on wood originates from an a primitive form of tree worship!
6 The Waste Framework Directive The Waste Framework Directive provides the overarching legislative framework for the collection, transport, recovery and disposal of waste across Europe, including the UK, and was originally passed into law in 2006.
7 The Waste Framework Directive With the waste hierarchy as its guiding light, the revised Waste Framework Directive sets out a range of provisions and tough targets in relation to recycling and reuse for both household and construction and demolition (C&D) waste. The targets in the Directive are: to recycle or prepare for reuse 50% of household waste by 2020 to reuse, recycle or recover 70% of non-hazardous C&D waste by 2020 Alongside this, the Directive details a requirement to set up separate collection of "at least the following: paper, metal, plastic and glass", from the household waste stream by Paper Metal Plastic Glass
8 The 4 R`s Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recovery Reduce Reduce - Save money on packaging spend - Less packaging = less producer responsibilty tax - Less packaging weight to transport - Reduced carbon
9 The 4 R`s Reduce, Reuse,Recycle, Recovery Reduce Re-use Re-use - Saves money on new packaging - No package producer responsibility tax on re-used packaging - Reduced carbon
10 The 4 R`s Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recovery Reduce Re-use Recycle Recycle - Value of the recyclate (currently very high) - Packaging Recovery Note (PRN s) can be issued - Reduced carbon... but not as much as Reduce/Reuse!
11 The 4 R`s Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recovery Reduce Re-use Recycle Recovery (Energy,compost) Recovery - Packaging Recovery Notes (PRN s) values are currently very low - Energy from Waste (EFW) value increasing - Carbon Reduction... but not as much as the others
12 The 4 R`s Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recovery Reduce Re-use Recycle Recovery (Energy,compost) Landfill Landfill - Costs 56/t landfill tax + gate fee of 40/t - 100/t and rising year on year - Produces Carbon
13 The 4 R`s Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recovery Reduce Better for the environment & sustainability Re-use Recycle Recovery (Energy,compost) Landfill Worse for the environment & sustainability Significant costs
14 Wood Waste Hierarchy Example Reduce Less boards, bearers, block on pallets, crates and boxes. Reduce thickness of boards. However This can conflict with Re-use. No good specifying a flimsy pallet if you expect to re-use it many times.
15 Wood Waste Hierarchy Example Reduce Re-Use Good quality heavy duty pallet such as GKN Blue High inital cost More trips 10 trips = 1 per trip. Re-using the same pallet,thus reducing, packaging waste, Raw materials and cost. Manufacturing company using pallets to transport goods.
16 Wood Waste Hierarchy Example Reduce Re-use Recycle Mainly single trip, cheap and disposable. At best cost neutral to dispose of. Reprocessed in board, MDF, worktops. Ex pallets (packaging) will generate a wood PRN. Relatively low value as recyclate. Crate Packaging Recycled wood products
17 Wood Waste Hierarchy Example Reduce Re-use Recycle Incinerated for energy recovery. Wood Packaging Recovery Notes (PRN s) issued. Recovery (EFW) Wooden packaging Incinerated at EFW power station for energy. Generates heat and power.
