KEYNOTE ADDRESS WASTE MANAGEMENT BEYOND 2013 DATO NADZRI YAHAYA, PH.D DIRECTOR GENERAL DEPARTMENT OF NATIONAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT MINSTRY OF URBAN WELLBEING, HOUSING AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT nadzri@kpkt.gov.my
3 RD MALAYSIA PLAN ( 76-80) SOCIO ECONOMIC FRAMEWORK : CHAPTER ON DEVELOPMENT AND ENVIRONMENT: COASTAL WATER WILL BE MONITORED FOR POLLUTION FROM URBAN WASTE GROWING CONGESTION OF URBAN AREAS WITH THE PROBLEM OF WASTE DISPOSAL INCINERATION OF WASTES- MOST SERIOUS SOURCE OF AIR POLLUTION
5 TH MALAYSIA PLAN ( 86-90) CHAPTER ENVIRONMENT PROGRESS (80-85) LOCAL AUTHORITIES :SOUND PRACTICE OF SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: CONTROLLED TIPPING AND SIGNIFICANT INCREASED IN PERCENTAGE BEING DISPOSED OF BY INCINERATION LOCAL AUTHORITIES: FOCUSING ON THE NEED OF SAFE HANDLING, TRANSPORTATION AND DISPOSAL OF WASTE FROM MANUFACTURING AND ENGINEERING INDUSTRIES
6 TH MALAYSIA PLAN ( 91-95) CHAPTER ENVIRONMENT NEW INCENTIVES FOR PROPER STORAGE, TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL OF INDUSTRIAL WASTES POLLUTION FROM CONSUMER PRODUCTS : DEVELOPMENT OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES REDUCED COST OF PRODUCTION BUT RESULTED IN CONSUMER PRODUCTS WHICH ARE INCREASINGLY ACCESSIBLE,AFFORDABLE AND DURABLE- POTENTIAL DANGERS TO ENVIRONMENT IF NOT SAFELY DISPOSED OF AFTER USE
6 TH MALAYSIA PLAN ( 91-95) CHAPTER ENVIRONMENT WRAPPERS, PACKAGING AND DOMESTIC REFUSE, PLASTICS AND ALUMINIUM-BASED MATERIALS ARE NOT ONLY NOT BIO-DEGRADABLE BUT NOT POSSIBLE TO BE RECYCLED INDUSTRIES TO BE ENCOURAGED TO USE EST AND PROCESSES, PRODUCE BIO DEGRADABLE PRODUCTS, RECYCLE PRODUCTS; CONSUMER TO BE MOTIVATED TO DISPOSE PRODUCTS MORE SYSTEMATICALLY; LA TO DISPOSE DOMESTIC REFUSE SYSTEMATICALLY AND ENFORCE PUBLIC COMPLIANCE
7 TH MALAYSIA PLAN ( 96-2000) ENVIRONMENT AND SUSTAINABLE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT INDUSTRIAL WASTE: SETTING UP OF CENTRAL DISPOSAL FACILITIES HOUSING: REUTILISATION OF CONSTRUCTION WASTES AND ENCOURAGES INCINERATORS FOR MUNICIPAL WASTE SOLID WASTE REDUCTION HIGHEST PRIORITY UPSTREAM TECHNOLOGY WILL BE USED: COMPOSTING, RECYCLING AND INCINERATION WITH ENERGY RECOVERY HAZARDOUS WASTE: FACILITY (STORAGE, TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL), SAFE TRANSPORTATION
OPP3 (2001-2010) Will go beyond controlling pollution at source and adopt preventive measures that include the policies that drive down energy, materials, pollution and waste intensity of urban-industrial activity moving from the current pollution abatement and clean-up paradigm and technology-retrofit approach to one where technology itself is the source to prevent pollution and cut resource intensity. Efforts will also be taken to encourage the recycling of materials.
OPP3 (2001-2010) Fuel diversification policy which comprises oil, gas, hydro and coal will be extended to include renewable energy as the fifth fuel, particularly biomass, biogas, municipal waste, solar and mini-hydro moving from the current pollution abatement and clean-up paradigm and technology-retrofit approach to one where technology itself is the source to prevent pollution and cut resource intensity. Efforts will also be taken to encourage the recycling of materials.
The 8 th Malaysia Plan (2001-2005) A comprehensive waste management policy will be introduced to address the issues on waste reduction, reuse and recycle. To ensure an integrated and sustainable solid waste management, the National Strategic Plan for Solid Waste Management was adopted in 2005
The 9 th Malaysia Plan (2006-2010) Emphasise the implementation of the National Strategic Plan for Solid Waste Management (Strategic Plan) with priority on the reduction, reuse, recovery and recycling of waste as well as greater use of environment-friendly materials such as bioplastics A special department will be established to manage solid waste and amongst its duties include to administer solid waste policy, planning and management in a holistic manner
9 th Malaysia Plan forecasted figure of 30,000 tonnes per day in 2020 Latest Study, estimated that in 2012, solid waste generated in Malaysia is 3 3, 0 0 0 tonnes per day World Bank in 2012, reported that solid waste generated is 1.3 billion tonnes per year
The 10 th Malaysia Plan (2010-2015) Complete the federalisation of solid waste management and public cleansing services in order to facilitate the modernisation of waste collection, handling and disposal as well as the upkeep of shared public spaces
Starting from the generation, collection, treatment and disposal must be holistically addressed All must be incorporated in the 3R principle; reduce, reuse and recycle to ensure the whole loop of waste management is closed without any leakages.
Under the 10 th Malaysia Plan, a holistic management of solid waste through sanitary landfills will help recover the methane produced from the waste and use it to generate energy. Renewable energy has increase from less than 1% in 2009 to 5.5% (985MW) of Malaysia s total electricity generated by 2015 with 200MW from solid waste sector
Developing 8 sanitary landfills equipped with methane collection system Upgrading existing dumpsites to prevent further deterioration of the environment
Recycling activities could reduce 25% of the estimated carbon dioxide equivalent emissions If we build material recovery facilities as well as waste treatment plants, we should be able to reduce 38% of the estimated carbon dioxide equivalent emissions
New landfills- included material recovery facilities and composting areas as well as inert cell to receive construction and demolition waste. The government is also planning to build 3 Waste To Energy plants. Each of the plants is expected to generate between 10-15MW of electricity
Embarked on pilot plant to utilise the anaerobic digestor in existing sewerage treatment plant (STP) to treat both food waste and the sludge from the STP to produce biogas and compost We are also looking into the possibility of establishing food banks to address the wastage of food.
Malaysia: 45% Food Waste UNEP/FAO reported in 2009 and 2011 that roughly one third of the food produced in the world for human consumption every year approximately 1.3 billion tonnes gets diminished or wasted
- co-treatment of sewerage sludge and food waste - HOLISTIC TREATMENT OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF WASTE INTERPHASING OF WASTE AND RESOURCES - Treated waste as resources in agriculture sector (fertilisers/ feedstock) - Treated Waste as base material ( infrastructure- roads, pavement, building) - Treated Waste as fuel (RDF, ash for cement kiln) - Utilizing Fresh waste to produce energy
HOLISTIC COLLECTION SERVICE - Scheduled waste collection from household - Alternative collection system reticulated/ vacuum REDUCTION OF WASTE - Deposit Rebate Scheme/Take Back System - Mandatory Separation of Waste - Introduction of Scheme/Incentive to Reduce Packaging Materials -
