1 Bio-waste minimization and valorisation for low carbon production CTCN Advisory Board 11 th Meeting Information Session 7-9 March 2018

2 ROLE CTCN FOCAL POINT IN THE COUNTRIES AND MANAGE THE SUBMISSION OF REQUESTS FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

3 VIETNAM NDE MINSITRY OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENT DEPARTMENT OF METEOROLOGY, HYDROLOGY AND CLIMATE CHANGE NDE 4 requests submitted Division of Science- Technology and International Cooperation Focal point

4 VIETNAM NDE

5 VIETNAM TNA Collaboration work by DMHCC and UNEP Risoe Denmark in 2011

6 VIETNAM TNA Mitigation technology needs assessment was carried out for Energy, Agriculture and LULUCF based on their share of GHG emissions, potential for GHG emission reduction, capacity to employ mitigation technologies, and contribution to the national development goals. The selected technology options are feasible, highly potential to reduce GHG emissions and consistent with the goal of national sustainable development. No. Sector Technology 1 Energy Wind power 2 Agriculture Biogas Energy-saving compact fluorescent lamps Large-scale Heat and Power (Co-generation) Bus rapid transit Nutrition improvement through controlled fodder supplements Wet and dry irrigation in rice cultivation 3 LULUCF Sustainable forest management Afforestation and reforestation Rehabilitation of mangrove

7 VIETNAM TNA Adaptation technology needs were assessed for agriculture, LULUCF, coastal zone management and water resources due to their significance in economic contribution, social contribution, environmental development contribution and vulnerability to climate change. The technologies identified for those sectors are considered feasible to apply with high adaptive potential. No. Sector Technology 1 Agriculture Plant Genetic Breeding Rice to upland grain 2 LULUCF Plant genetics Tripple cropping to double cropping + shrimp/fish/poultry crop Agro-forestry 3 Water resources Rooftop rainfall haversting for household 4 Coastal Zone Management Sea-dyke Haversting runoff water Integrated Water Basin Management Coastal wetland rehabilitation

8 Bio-waste minimization and valorisation for low carbon production in rice sector Rice husk has high potential to valorize in stead of dumping or burning. 30% of rice husk currently used as fuel for drying paddy and other product drying process; 50% can be potentially converted into thermal energy (pellet and briquette). Rice husk pellet used for boiler Rice husk briquette used for boiler

9 Bio-waste minimization and valorisation for low carbon production in rice sector Increasing energy demand while decreasing fossil fuel. Government s policies prioritizes renewable energy sources: Decision 2149/QD-TTg on targets of energy converted from solid waste. Decision 1208/QD-TTg on approval master plan for power development ( with a vision to 2030); targets on renewable energy. New strategy of MARD for rice sector: Rice millers have reach at least 50% of on-site paddy drying by > pressure to invest new rice husk based dryers. Win-win solution: Rice millers benefit from higher quality of export rice, easier original trace; farmers benefit from supports from rice millers (fertilizer, logistics, knowhow, fund )

10 Proposal development process International cooperation project funded by UNIDO-UNEP on Resources Efficiency and Cleaner Production (RECP) for rice sector: Companies expressed needs for technical assistance in biomass conversion technologies (rice husk). A market study on biomass valorization for thermal energy in Vietnam shows high potential of valorization of rice husk, especially for rice sector. Proposal developed for Song Hau and An Giang Food (under Vietnam Southern Food Corporation VinaFood 2).

11 Proposal development process Discussion with Director board of Song Hau Food Company Discussion with Director board of An Giang Food Company

12 Proposal development process Song Hau Food Company Company has 3 processing factories with total capacity of 200,000 ton/year. Material includes: Brown rice 90%, fresh paddy 10%. According to the plan, company will invest a system of rice husk-based dryers to ensure at least 50% of paddy dried by themselves by Rice husk- based bed dryer of a private company in Thoi Lai Rice husk-based tower-dryer system of Song Hau Food Company

13 Proposal development process Technical assistance Develop business plan for rice husk converted product (pellet, briquette ) Research, test and select suitable technologies for: Drying paddy (burner with technologies such as pyrolysis, gasification ) Production of pellet, briquette Support companies to access to financing options, donors.

14 Proposal implementation plan Activity 1: Development of decision tool/guideline in selection of suitable technology and business model. Tool/guideline includes technical, social and sustainable indicators Activity 2: Identification and analysis of potential business model (onsite, off-site, alternative). Activity 3: Using tool/guideline to perform feasibility of potential business model at selected enterprise. Activity 4: Overview of access to financing options.

15 Proposal implementation plan Duration: 12 months (From 2016) Expected benefits: Effective valorization of rice husk Song Hau: 32,000 ton/year An Giang: 18,000 ton/year Greenhouse gas emission reduction Song Hau: 36,000 ton CO2/year An Giang: 10,700 ton CO2/year Better original tracibility when exporting rice to other coutries. Better quality and higher income, higher competitiveness in the market, especially international market. Increase of activeness of farmers and enterprises. High potential to scale up (for rice sector and other sector related to energy demand).

16 Challenges and barriers in general Lack of awareness CTCN is a fairly recent mechanism not widely known amongst governmental institutions, academic circle and the general public only a number of requests have been submitted by the NDE Vietnam to the CTCN Secretariat. Indifference for technologies in TNA Technologies identified in the TNA not widely known by the business sector, nor being promoted by the Government. Updating TNA??? Learning by doing No clear-cut or defined procedures for selection of requests yet, still in the process of learning by doing effecting domestic procedure efficiency.

17 What NDE VietNam can do Promoting CTCN in Vietnam: Workshops Training Website A forum on low-carbon technology opportunities for Vietnam business sector Strengthening institutional capacity: Request selection process Updating TNA Capacity building for staff members: Coordinating activities between CTCN and domestic stakeholders Updating technology information Providing consultation to stakeholders
