WASTE LOGISTICS Prof. Dr. Roland Pomberger Workshop C-Planet 8.9.2020 Leoben Fachbereich Umwelttechnik
Comparing logistics of Mining waste and municipial solid waste Styrian Erzberg Austria Iron ore Municipial Solid Waste 3,5 mio t/a 4,2 mio t/a I am living here + 8,5 mio t waste rock 12 mio t transport 4,2 mio t transport Styrian Erzberg in Eisenerz, biggest mine in middle Europe Iron ore since 1000 years 12 trucks App. 2000 trucks 1 000 000 t/ truck y 2 100 t/ truck y Waste management is not a problem of mass 4 mio m3 21 mio m3 it is a problem of volumes 1 source 4 000 000 sources and ENTROPY 2 sinks Hundreds of sinks 2
Waste: Low price needs high volume Turnover with 1 kg of product To get relevant turnover Gold 33.000 €/kg We need large quantities Mobile phone 4.000 €/kg Consumer electronics 50 €/kg Food 10 €/kg Large quantities means - many people Energy/fuel 1 €/kg - a lot of companies Hazardous waste 1 €/kg - big industry mixed waste (e.g. plastics) 0,1 €/kg
My plan for the next hour 1. Introduction to waste and logistics 2. Elements of waste collection 3. Basics of waste logistics 4. Waste flows 5. Collection and recycling schemes 6. Plastic waste collection 7. Innovative developments 8. Discussion MONTANUNIVERSITÄT LEOBEN 4 LEHRSTUHL FÜR ABFALLVERWETUNGSTECHNIK UND ABFALLWIRTSCHAFT
MONTANUNIVERSITÄT LEOBEN Waste definition in EU and Austria Entledigungsabsicht Öffentliches Interesse (=Subjektiver Abfallbegriff) (= Objektiver Abfallbegriff) Bewegliche Sachen deren Sammlung, Lagerung, One of the most Bewegliche Sachen deren sich der Besitzer Beförderung und Behandlung als Abfall im entledigen will oder entledigt hat öffentlichen Interesse erforderlich ist. complicated questions: Öffentliches Interesse ist gegeben, wenn vom Material Umweltgefahren ausgehen, die durch Einstufung und Behandlung als Abfall minimiert werden können. Abfall kann weiterhin ökonomischen Wert haben. Keine Abfäll im Sinne des AWG sind Abwasser, gasförmige Is this material Emissionen, landwirtschaftliche Reste (Mist, Jauche, Gülle), Abfalleigenschaft ist klar erkennbar wenn Material Berge, Kadaver und Schlachtabfälle, Sprengstoffabfälle, Radioaktive Abfälle weil es eigene Gesetze dazu gibt. waste or product ? zur Beseitigung oder Verwertung übergeben wird. Abfall ist auch kontaminierter Boden. Waste framework directive “Waste” means any substance or object which the holder discards or intends or is required to discard. (c) Copyright R. Pomberger
MONTANUNIVERSITÄT LEOBEN Waste is mixed material Questions How to influence quality? How to define the material? Problems of How to take a sample? characterisation Challenges Impurities How to analyse? sampling How to predict volumes and quantities? Quality assurance Changing quality Wide range of quality How to define and verify contract qualities? Quality control (c) Copyright R. Pomberger 8
Which kind of waste ? Separate collected waste Mixed residual waste (MSW) Industrial waste Hazardous waste Commercial waste EWC Code ? Who is owner of the waste ? Volume, quality, impurities, fluctuations, Quality control, size, chemical and physical characteristics…
The 4 basic laws of waste management 1. Every product turns to waste – it is just a question of time 2. What can be in waste – will be in waste 3. Waste goes the way of the cheapest money – hopefully akording to the regulation 4. Waste market is made by the regulations
Technical standard and Costs are regulation driven Environmental benefit or Development of technology Technology level Technically feasible but not economically ??? Regulation level Binding recycling rate (CE package) Landfill ban Landfill regulation Increased recycling costs Incineration or MBT before landfill landfill State of the art Waste dumping
Waste economics has some specialities There is not 1 waste market Some markets are regional – some are global Who is customer – who is client ? „Waste paradoxon“ Influence on the quality of waste is low No influence on waste volumes Business is regulation driven Biggest competitor is the administration – Private sector can do what they allow Usually raw material value can not finance the waste management system
Who is the customer? In most cases it is NOT the CITICEN Citicen uses the service, but customer is MUNICIPALITY Companies that treat waste „secondary waste streams“ = private or kommunal WASTE COMPANIES SME COMPANIES INDUSTRY WASTE SYSTEMS GOVERNMENT/ADMINISTRATION
Requirements for stable waste management Waste management System in balance Waste management in balance Treatment costs and economics
Definition of waste logistics “Waste logistics is targeted planning and implementation of all physical and information processes necessary for disposal.“ “Waste logistics deals with the collection, transport, handling and storage of waste” Storage logistics C P S R Production logistics Supply logistics Collection logistics K…customer P…production INPUT OUTPUT S…storage R…recycler or diposer 15
2. Elements of waste collection
Separate Collection Separate collection is basis for modern waste management EU requires separate collection by regulation Waste framework directive Our children must learn separate collection even in nursery and primary school obligates member states Citizen is the first (sensor based) sorting maschine 17
…everywhere ? http://indiatoday.intoday.in Waste collection in an EU capital 20. Oktober 2015 http://www.informalwastesector.net
Separate Collection – something new ? Etienne de Fodor Budapest 1911 He describes separate collection, multi bin system, sorting plants and energetic utilisation of waste 19
Lübeck 1928 History MSW collection in Hamburg 1609 20 MSW collection in Berlin 1912

Waste collection system has 3 elements TRUCK CONTAINER
For every collection system the right container MGB 40 - 1100 Empty out system Change system Abrollcontainer Absetzcontainer Single use system
Collection trucks Variety of special vehicles
Basic collection systems (1) Collection without sstem Single use system
Basic collection systems (2) Empty out system Change system
Collection system by location (1) Pick up system Bring system 27
Collection system by location (2) VIDEO Recycling yard Hazardous waste from households Voluminous waste (bulky waste) Takeover under supervision 28
2 types of vehicles Collection trucks serve to collect waste directly from the waste producer Transport of the waste over shorter distances to the transfer station or, on a case-by-case basis, directly to the treatment / disposal facility special loading devices to accommodate various collection container systems smaller capacity compared to transport vehicles 3 main elements: chassis - body - loading equipment Long distance trucks Transport of large amounts of waste over long distances partially equipped with compression devices do not have complex charging technology Cost savings compared to transport with collection vehicles 29

From waste collecting to industry WASTE MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY Collection Pre Recycling of waste Treatment available volumes (secondary) raw material market quality raw material price impurities quality requirements Potential of recyclables
Waste management – a complex system Collection + Sorting and treatment disposal products transport pretreatment Separate Logistik is this area collected recyclables and every Mixed municipial solid waste Separate collected Bio waste Commercial + industrial waste
Value chain of a waste company Collection Pre Treatment Output Recovery logistics and storage logistics disposal
Who is responsible for the waste? (1) Waste collector producer trade consumer (public, private) responsibility Municipality, company Municipality gets money from the citicen by tax or fee 45
Who is responsible for the waste? (2) Waste collector producer trade consumer (public, private) Responsibility of consumer Example: return obligation for refrigerators, WEEEs 46
Who is responsible for the waste? (3) Waste collector producer trade consumer (public, private) Deposit system Reusable refillable system
Who is responsible for the waste? (4) Waste collector producer trade consumer (public, private) Model of producer responsibility Extended Producer Responsibility EPR is a European trend and pushed by EU circular economy package 48

5. Collection and recycling schemes
Recycling schemes Based on regulation They guarantee the customer the fulfillment of the recycling quota Licence fee from customer Revenues from secondary raw material Data and information management Often no equipment/plants/trucks Work done by contractors
How does a recycling scheme work? Public system Flow of material Flow of money Flow of information producer trade consumer Secondary recycler municipality raw material sorting collection dismatling sorting residues processing dismatling Consumers/citicens are responsible and must give their waste to the municipality They pay taxes or fees to the municipality
How does a recycling scheme work? Producer system Flow of material Flow of money Flow of information producer trade consumer Secondary Redistribution raw materials collection residues sorting Producer is responsible for return/utilisation/recycling/disposal of his products. He must fulfil the legal recycling rate
How does a recycling scheme work? Poolsystem Flow of material Flow of money Flow of information producer trade consumer „System“ scheme collection sorting dismatling Secondary raw processing residues materials Collection/recycling/disposal is made by the scheme Producers duty is taken and fulfilled by the scheme

6. Innovative developments Digitalization of waste management Inspired by Prof. Kerstin Kuchta, TU Hamburg
DIGITALIZATION means changing business models by improving business processes based on the use of information and communication technologies Digitalisierung im Mittelstand, Deloitte, 2013
DIGITALISIERUNG • Thinking from the end • All business is based on the customer, who is precisely “measured” and predicted in a self-learning manner
SMART COLLECTION TRUCKS TELEMATICS SYSTEM APPLICATIONS: Security checklists Vehicle operating data Remote maintenance of the vehicle Route selection, guidance and navigation Communication driver / branch Online order management Event tagging ON-BOARD UNITS WEIGHING SYSTEMS RFID IDENT SYSTEMS KAMERAINTEGRATION
DIGITAL TRUCK MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS Entsorgungslogistik im ländlichen Raum - Anforderungen an die Fahrzeugtechnik & Trends I Dr. Johannes F. Kirchhoff
TOUR OPTIMIZATION USING SOFTWARE SUPPORT before after 84
EXAMPLE OF A TELEMATICS SYSTEM 85
SMART CONTAINER • Trend towards RFID as standard equipment on the container • Identification of the frequency of emptying, if necessary with weight • Level sensors with direct connection to the disposition software • Active container tracking modules for transparent tracking of container locations • Online condition monitoring of the containers in the field • Access control and usage status
DIGITALIZATION & NETWORKING INTELLIGENT SMART TRUCKS CONTAINERS • Know where to collect Level indicator – Level and position dependent Message what's – self-learning route planning inside – Traffic-related route planning position • Preventive maintenance Fully integrated, – The truck knows its problem level-dependent • Electronic security fence Tour planning around the truck • Autonomous
COLLECTION OF RECYCLABLE MATERIALS BY DELIVERY SERVICES AND PARCEL DELIVERERS • In 2016, every household in Germany received an average of 38 parcel deliveries home, a total of over three billion per year • Parcel shipments to private customers rose by 13 percent last year • The parcels are to be brought from local microdepots to the customers by bike courier / delivery robot or picked up in parcel shops • More often in residential areas as a waste collection company Quelle: dpd

Case study – platforms
WASTE SCAN 40 % of the MSW „grey bin“ are recyclables 30 – 50 kg /cap*a should be in the separate collection https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cz5wOc2L40c
CON- CLUSIONS
Waste collection is the basis for waste treatment Separate collection is the basis for recycling Convinience motivates the people – so make it simple More and better collection, more and better recycling and waste treatment brings more environmental benefit There are many new ideas and technical developments, like digitalization – But it costs more money Are we ready to spend more money on it ?
… at the end – one of the great philosophers of waste management He asked one of the fundamental questions … WHY must always I bring out the garbage ? 95
“It always seems impossible until it's done.”
