  1. It’s Not Waste… 10th November 2008 : Nigel Holmes

  2. Presentation Overview • What is Industrial Symbiosis • Establishing networks • IS in Practice : Outputs • Team Profile • Priorities for 2008-10 • Sectors & Materials • ‘Difficult’ Materials • Delivery Partners • Zero Waste - Opportunity Alistair at work…

  3. What is NISP? • National programme: launched in July 2005 • FREE resource efficiency support • NISP Scotland funded by Scottish Government • Creating sustainable procurement and consumption patterns that reduce dependency on virgin resources • Use IS to reduce costs and additional business • Waste or spare resource becomes a saleable by-product or resource input for another company

  4. ‘Cradle to Grave’ Traditional linear supply chain ‘Wastes’ end up in landfill

  5. Symbiosis Networks Build networks, find Synergies Between company support

  6. Identify Synergy Opportunities What resources are being underused? Need to know : • Location • Quantities • Specifications, EWC classification • Timing (project, batch, or continuous) • Restrictions (commercial, regulatory, technical, etc) Information gathered to identify synergy opportunities : • From direct contact, visits, or referrals • From ‘Synergy Workshops’ and other NISP events

  7. Distillery Resources CARBON DIOXIDE WASTE HEAT OAK BARRELS Whisky Distillery POT ALE TRANSPORT SPENT GRAIN GREY WATER

  8. Industrial Symbiosis Examples Transfer heat to neighbouring site for space heating agriculture or aquaculture Use for making garden furniture Use to smoke fish Fuel source Whisky Distillery Sell for animal feed Extract Proteins Fuel Source Backhaul opportunity Warehouse location Transfer to neighbouring site Pot ale processing

  9. IS in Practice : Scotland Outputs Highlights from 2007-08 • landfill diversion 46,265 tonnes • CO2 reduction 28,279 tonnes • Cost savings £558,775 • Additional sales £674,974 (2007-08 Landfill diversion target was 35,000 te) 8,750 te Tarmac planings from Edinburgh Tram project

  10. Example Synergies • 8,750 te road planings from TIE tram project • 6,000 te paper mill sludge to IVC • 9,000 te fibre sludge to composting • 6,000 te canal dredgings to composting • 550 te zoo dung to compost and back as topsoil • 2500 te tyre fibre to arena surfacing • 2000 te off-spec soda ash to cement works • 24 te bananas for composting

  11. Overall Priorities for 2008-10 • Not just highnn tonnage materials • Increased focus on ‘difficult’ materials • Priority sectors for NISP Scotland 2008-10 • Food/Drink : Whisky & Fish • Oil, Gas, & Chemicals • Construction & Infrastructure Projects • Sectors reflect Scotland key industries • Avoid overlap, building links with Envirowise & WRAP Priority Industry

  12. Specific Priorities 2008-10 Specific Scotland priorities set by Scottish Government : • Commercial food wastes • Fish wastes • Decommissioned Oil Rigs • Drilling Muds • Waste Oils and Solvents • Industrial Plastics • Large Scale construction Projects Fish Wastes Brent Spar Drilling Muds

  13. Current Projects • Food & Drink • Work with SFDF on member support for Zero Waste • Whisky sector new build projects • Oil, Gas & Chemicals • Outlets for remediated drilling muds • Plastics Refinery project • Biofuels synergies, EfW • Construction • M74 alternative materials • FRC scope for recyclate content • Material logistics opportunities

  14. Priority Sectors : Materials

  15. Opportunity : Zero Waste • Increasing number of companies adopting ‘Zero Waste’ as corporate policy including Wisemans, FMC, Diageo, Michelin. • Zero Waste = nothing to landfill • Larger companies are creating demand for a ‘Zero Waste’ solution. Some waste management companies responding… • Opportunity to promote alternative technologies such as AD, IVC, MBT • NISP Scotland is assisting our member companies to deliver their ‘Zero Waste’ targets. No more landfill?

  16. Summary • Industrial Symbiosis theory & practice • Commercial & Environmental Benefits • Priorities for 2008-10 : • sectors & materials reflect Scotland drivers • use innovation to tackle ‘difficult’ materials • early engagement with major projects • collaboration with delivery partners • Thanks for listening - Any Questions?
