4 Fukuoka Model for Cities of 1-million in Asia FUKUOKA City

5 Fukuoka - People, Environment & City Development in Harmony People In Harmony Environment City Development FUKUOKA City

6 Green City Policies to Support a High Quality of Life Four measures to support QOL Waste Disposal Distributed Autonomous Energy Conservation of Natural Environment Environmental Education, Increasing Citizens Awareness

7 Green City Policies to Support a High Quality of Life (1) Waste Disposal

8 Household Waste Disposal Flow in Fukuoka Burnable garbage Power generation & Heat supply Incineration Burnable items Incineration ashes Landfill Non-burnable garbage Disintegration & sorting Non-burnable items Iron Aluminum Over-sized garbage Colorless Recycling Glass containers & PET bottles Sorting & Packing Glass containers Brown Others PET bottles

9 Nighttime Collection of Household Waste Good for beautification and sanitation on streets Less damage by crows and other vermin Efficient collection/transportation of garbage, easing traffic jams and preventing global warming Effective in nighttime crime prevention in urban areas FUKUOKA City

10 Highly-efficient Waste Power Generation at Incineration Plants Waste Power Generation Waste Heat Utilization FUKUOKA City

11 Why was the Fukuoka Method of Waste Landfill Technology developed? In the 1960s, raw garbage was mainly reclaimed in an anaerobic method. m Challenges Early Contaminated Odor of reuse of a water methane former landfill was difficult There is less oxygen inside the waste layer in the landfill. As a result of fermentation, contaminated water and methane are easily generated. Joint Experiments between Fukuoka City and Fukuoka University in the 1970s The Fukuoka Method, Semi-aerobic Technology was developed and adopted as a recommended national standard method. Solutions Deconta mi-nation of Water Reduction of global warming gases by half Smooth reuse of a former landfill

12 Features of the Fukuoka Method, Semi-aerobic Landfill Technology Feature 2 50% reduction of greenhouse gases Gas ventilation pipe Landfill Site Rainwater CO2 Rainwater CO2 Cover soil Feature 3 Smooth utilization of former landfill sites Incineration ashes Bacteria help waste decompose O 2 Leachate O 2 Leachate O 2 Air Features 4 Simple and economic mechanism Feature 1 Cleansing leachate! Perforated collection pipe

13 Utilization of the Former Landfill Site

14 Fukuoka City s Green Technology Transfered to the World Nations to which Fukuoka City sent its employees to spread the Fukuoka Method Nepal Iran Pakistan Thailand Malaysia China Mexico Cuba El Salvador Panama Vietnam Samoa Approved by the UN as a new CDM in July, 2011 Introduction of the Fukuoka Method into existing landfills The reduced amount of methane gas emissions can be used for carbon credit (emission trading of global warming gases).
