3 OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE 3
4 OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE Scope Integrated Packaging Waste Management System (SIGRE) handled by SPV Main Objectives: Assess the direct and indirect SIGRE contribution to the environmental, economic and social Portuguese development Project commissioned to 4
5 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 5
6 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Scope: Municipal and Trade&Industry packaging waste management systems o Household waste packaging ( urban sub-system) produced mainly by individual consumers and collected by municipal authorities municipal waste o Industrial/commercial waste packaging ( non-urban subsystem) produced by trade and industry and collected by private waste management companies 6
7 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Main Objectives: o Produce information about environmental costs and benefits of waste packaging management; o Identify the most important aspects related with packaging waste management (processes, materials,...). Considering: o Impacts: Waste collection, Sorting, Transport, Treatment and Recovery operations; o Avoided impacts: Recovery operations (recycling - material, incineration and landfill biogas - energy). 7

9 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FUNCT. UNIT Packaging waste managed in SIGRE (base year 2011) Quantities and materials that reflect SPV s responsibility, independently of the existence or not of financial transfers. Landfill, non-selective collection flows, etc. are considered Licensed Packaging in 2011: Subsystem / Material (ton) Steel Aluminiu m Wood Paper & Cardboard Plastics Glass Others Total Household subsystem Industrial & comercial subsystem Total
10 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SYST. BORDERS Municipal Sub-System Selective collection Sorting Recycling Avoided products 1 Household waste 5 3 Mixed waste collection Incineration Avoided electricity Mechanical treatment 6 Composting 8 Avoided fertilizer Landfill (dir. + ind.) Avoided electricity 9 Materials considered: Steel, Aluminium, Wood, Plastics, Paper and Cardboard, Glass, Other materials 10 10
11 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SYST. BORDERS Trade&Industry Sub-System 17 Recycling Avoided products 11 Ind./Com. waste Incineration 15 Avoided electricity 19 Landfill (dir. + ind.) Avoided electricity Materials considered: Steel, Aluminium, Wood, Plastics, Paper and Cardboard, Glass, Other materials 11 11
12 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT RESULTS Globally packaging waste management generates an environmental gain (contribution by process) o Avoided impacts with recovery > Impact resulting from collection sorting Landilling papel/board (P. MSW) Plastic Incineration (Packaging MSW) Recycling (two subssystems) Characterization Results, relative importance ILCD 2011 selected impact categories 12 12
13 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT RESULTS Individual material analysis reveals that normally the environmental benefits of recovery outweigh the impact caused by waste management (collection, sorting ) Incineration of Packaging in MSW Characterization Results, relative importance ILCD 2011 selected impact categories 13 13
14 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT RESULTS Examples of Environmental Benefits of Packaging Waste Management through recovery/recycling GHG Emissions kt CO 2 eq o Electricity consumption of portuguese families o Carbon saving equivalent to 198 km 2 of Pines o around the world airplane rides Energy Consumption (inc. feedstock energy) TJ of primary energy o 1,32% of national yearly primary energy consumption o 303 kt equivalent of oil Water Consumption m 3 o The yearly consumption of inhabitants in Portugal o 275 olympic pools 14 14
15 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT RESULTS Comparing different waste management scenarios (all to landfill and all to incineration) the present setting is the preferred option. Characterization Results, relative importance ILCD 2011 selected impact categories 15 15
16 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT RESULTS Examples of benefits facing alternative scenarios Comparison with all to landfill : GHG Emissions kt CO 2 eq o Electricity consumption of portuguese families o Carbon saving equivalent to 686 km 2 of Pines Comparison with all to incineration : o around the world airplane rides GHG Emissions kt CO 2 eq o Electricity consumption of portuguese families o Carbon saving equivalent to 678 km 2 of Pines o around the world airplane rides 16
17 ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT 17
18 ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT Scope: Economic Agents of the SIGRE s Value Chain Objectives: o To generate information on the economic profile of companies financing the SIGRE by paying the green dot fee; o To assess the economic impact of the SIGRE on the Portuguese economy Methodology: o Analysis supported on data bases from SPV, INE and other sources; o Resort to and input-output approach (Leontief) 18
