NAMA on Circular Economy Solid Waste Management Approach for Urban Areas in Kenya

Transcription

1 Republic of Kenya NAMA on Circular Economy Solid Waste Management Approach for Urban Areas in Kenya African Carbon Forum 30 th June 2016 Kigali, Rwanda

2 Urban Waste Situation (Nairobi) Disposed in Official Dumpsites 33% Recycled and Composed 5% Potentially Reusable Waste Generated 93% 100% Waste Tonnage Poorly managed solid waste - Half the children living around the major (Dandora) dumpsite have blood poisoning (UNEP 2007) - Dandora dumpsites causes tons of CO2e emissions per year 2

3 Urban Waste Analysis (Nairobi) Public sector only manages waste from city centre and markets Private sector companies manage other areas High waste disposal costs at badly managed dumpsites lead to expensive waste collection services 66% of Nairobi residents cannot afford these services 68% of the waste is organic with no treatment taking place Dumpsites are overfilled and no alternatives sites identified 3

4 Proposed NAMA in Kenya: Circular Economy Approach Sorting, recycling and composting waste instead of disposing will lead to: i. Waste collection cost being significantly reduced (monthly fee of USD 1 per household) ii. Affordable to 90% of Nairobi residents 4 iii. Recycling 95% of collected waste

5 NAMA Purpose & Objectives The overall purpose of this Circular Economy NAMA in Kenya is to improve Municipal Solid Waste management in a sustainable manner while leading to transformational change Objectives Establish infrastructure for recycling and reuse of waste to substantially reduce the amount of disposed waste Establish a framework for the private sector to participate in the recycling and reuse of waste 5

6 NAMA Interventions The NAMA will have two distinct phases: Infrastructure development phase (Phase 1: 1 to 5 years) Infrastructure development - collect and recycle 200 tons of waste per day Establishing initial recycling points, the composting facilities and the pilots for new recycling processes Full-scale operations phase (Phase 2: 6 to 15 years) Will scale up the operations of the NAMA to 600 tons of waste per day 6

7 Capacity Development in the NAMA Capacity development will be a key component in the implementation of the NAMA Training National and county institutions implementing relevant policy frameworks and public awareness creation Knowledge transfer among the private sector on waste value chain Awareness creation amongst farmers for the usage of compost Standards Facilitate development of product standards for recyclable materials with the Kenya Bureau Standards Technology Support testing and operationalization of new recycling technologies for adaptation to the local context 7

8 Key Outcomes as a Result of NAMA Interventions (i) 15 recycling centres (ii) 16 composting facilities (iii) New or improved technologies installed to increase recyclable fractions and improve recycling processes (iv) A compost market is developed and sale of compost a viable business model support to recycling industries Recycling of 600 tons of waste per day, accounting 25 per cent of Nairobi s total waste, will save more than 800,000 tons in CO2 equivalent emissions over the 15 years lifespan of the NAMA 8
