National waste management plan 2002 • National level, deals with: • prevention of waste production • infrastructure for collecting (hazardous) waste • setting ‘so-called’ minimum standards (techniques) • establish preferred capacity for waste incineration • Plan is renewed every 4 years • CA: Ministry of Environment
National waste management plan 2002 • SEA was carried out: • to compare different techniques and define preferred technique • to investigate different need scenarios for incineration to determine needed incineration capacity
National waste management plan 2002 • Selection preferred techniques • 26 waste streams investigated (asbestos, batteries, dissolvents, waste oil etc) Example waste oil: • in rotary drum incinerator • use as fuel in cement oven • additional fuel in power station • distallation with sodium treatment
National waste management plan2002 • Comparison techniques: • LCA (all effects incl re-use of material • General themes: • climate change • acidification • euthrophication • toxicity (humans, ecology) • use of resources • disruption: biodiversity • 12 LCA themes
National waste management plan 2002 • Make results useful for decision making: different weighting • all 6 themes equally important • all 12 LCA themes are equally important • importance of effects relative to ‘distance to target’ • emphasis on greenhouse effect (reduce of energy use) • emphasis on dispersion
National waste management plan 2002 • Comparison: • analysis of most friendly technique for the environment • preferred technique
National waste management plan 2002 • Capacity planning incineration grey waste • 2 scenarios : separation in different (caloric) components with specific processing (use in power plants, cement ovens, incineration plant) 1 scenario: all waste integrally burned in waste incinerators 1 scenario: no increase in capacity (landfills)
National waste management plan2002 Comparison of alternatives • simplified LCA • use of space for waste that is land-filled • emissions of NOx, CO2, CO, carbon hydroxides, NH3 en dioxins
National waste management plan 2002 • Relation SEA and EIA • SEA (2002), national level: • Capacity for incineration: • need scenarios investigated • conclusion: 2 incineration plants are needed • for 26 waste streams : preferred technique • EIA project level • Site characteristics examined • Preferred technique applied? If not, applied technique has to score as good as or better than preferred technique
