13 Let s look more closely at the recycling rate of different waste sources in Florida 13
14 The Four Categories 1. Residential MSW* 2. Non-residential MSW* 3. C&D Debris 4. Yard Trash *Not including yard trash or C&D debris. 14
15 State of Florida Total Waste Generation by Category Categorizing the total 32.5 million tons of collected MSW into the four categories 3.81 million tons yard trash million tons residential 8.95 million tons non-residential 9.64 million tons C&D Debris 32.5 Million tons 15

45 The Challenge with Recycling Rates Doesn t track efforts in reduction Company institutes a double-sided printing policy Recycled Landfilled Recycled 45
46 The Challenge with Recycling Rates Doesn t track efforts in reduction Recycling Rate: 40% Recycling Rate: 35% Recycled Source Reduction Landfilled Recycled 46
47 Sustainable Materials Management 47
48 Sustainable Materials Management SMM is a systemic approach to using and reusing materials more productively over their entire life cycles. It represents a change in how our society thinks about the use of natural resources and environmental protection. By looking at a product's entire lifecycle we can find new opportunities to reduce environmental impacts, conserve resources, and reduce costs. 48

51 Tracking Life Cycle Impacts of Alternative Solid Waste Management Strategies Instead of looking at the % of material s mass recycled, why not look at the environmental burden associated with its waste management. Environmental burden categories: Global warming Energy consumption/production Toxicity Acidification Eutrophication Ozone depletion Water consumption SMM tools Open LCA Municipal Solid Waste Decision Support Tool (MSW DST) Waste Reduction Model (WARM) Waste and Resources Assessment Tool for the Environment (WRATE; UK) 51

59 Opportunities to Apply SMM Tools and Principles to Waste Management Decision Making A state or community could use a life cycle model to evaluate priorities for developing regulations or policies Compare different scenarios (e.g., waste to energy versus SSO) to assess which approach provides the overall lower environmental burden. 59

76 How can SMM be utilized in a similar manner as the 75% goal? With the SMM tools discussed, we can model the environmental burden (e.g., carbon footprint) associated for a solid waste management for the State or for an individual municipality. Or we can compare different solid waste management systems? But to track progress over time, what do you compare the environmental burden to? One possible approach, is to compare to a baseline environmental burden. 76
77 Developing a Baseline for Florida Let s consider the following: The Statute with Florida 75% recycling goal was issued in Let s use 2008 as our baseline. Traditional Recycling Rate = 28.4% Adjusted Recycling Rate = 41.5% MTCO2E Emissions = million MTCO2E Energy usage = -147 million mmbtu 77
78 Developing a Baseline for Florida Let s consider the following: The Statute with Florida 75% recycling goal was issued in Let s use 2008 as our baseline. Traditional Recycling Rate = 28.4% Adjusted Recycling Rate = 41.5% MTCO2E Emissions = million MTCO2E Energy usage = -147 million mmbtu We developed a hypothetical waste management profile that would have corresponded to a 75% recycling in 2008 (included some additional WTE). Traditional Recycling Rate = 59.6% Adjusted Recycling Rate = 75.3% MTCO2E Emissions = million MTCO2E Energy usage = -275 million mmbtu Our Target 78
79 % Traditional 54% Adjusted Target = -26 million MTCO2E 79
80 Constructed and operated WTE facilities in Orange and Duval Counties 42% Traditional 59% Adjusted Target = -26 million MTCO2E 80
81 Established a Bottle Bill and Recycled 80% of Glass, Aluminum Cans, and Plastic Bottles 44.9% Traditional 56.6% Adjusted Target = -26 million MTCO2E 81
82 Recycle 80% of Glass, Aluminum Cans, Plastic Bottles, Newspaper, Cardboard and Office Paper 51.4% Traditional 63.0% Adjusted Target = -26 million MTCO2E 82
83 Food Waste Recycling (composting) to 80% 47.0% Traditional 57.7% Adjusted Target = -26 million MTCO2E 83
84 Recycle 80% of C&D and Yard Trash 52.4% Traditional 64.1% Adjusted Target = -26 million MTCO2E 84
85 Target = -26 million MTCO2E Recycle 80% of Glass, Aluminum Cans, Plastic Bottles, Newspaper, Cardboard, Office Paper, Yard Trash, C&D and Food Waste 66.0% Traditional 76.7% Adjusted 85

88 Established a Bottle Bill and Recycled 80% of Glass, Aluminum Cans, and Plastic Bottles 44.9% Traditional 56.6% Adjusted Target = -275 million mmbtu 88
89 Recycle 80% of Glass, Aluminum Cans, Plastic Bottles, Newspaper, Cardboard and Office Paper 51.4% Traditional 63.0% Adjusted Target = -275 million mmbtu 89
90 Food Waste Recycling (composting) to 80% 47.0% Traditional 57.7% Adjusted Target = -275 million mmbtu 90
91 Recycle 80% of C&D and Yard Trash 52.4% Traditional 64.1% Adjusted Target = -275 million mmbtu 91
92 Recycle 80% of Glass, Aluminum Cans, Plastic Bottles, Newspaper, Cardboard, Office Paper, Yard Trash, C&D and Food Waste 66.0% Traditional 76.7% Adjusted Target = -275 million mmbtu 92
93 Lessons Learned With respect to two environmental burden categories (GHG emissions, energy), different recycling approaches result in different progress toward the goal. The materials targeted play a major role. The selection of a baseline is critical. Aluminum Cans Cardboard Newspaper Computer Steel Cans PET Plastic HDPE Plastic Glass Asphalt Shingle Drywall GHG Emissions (MTCO2E/ton) 93
94 Refined Approach Lets assume a hypothetical waste management profile in 2008, Baseline 2, that follows: Combusted, 25% Recycled, 50% Landfilled, 25% 94
95 Refined Approach The Baseline 2 outputs: Traditional Recycling Rate = 52% Adjusted Recycling Rate = 77% MTCO2E Emissions = million MTCO2E Energy usage = -272 million mmbtu Our Target To make it easier to compare, we will normalize the GHG and energy burdens to an equivalent progress toward a recycling goal. 95

102 Discussion SMM could be used as a tool to set alternative targets with respect to solid waste management in Florida. This approach helps identify materials/system targets to reach SMM goals. What is an appropriate SMM metric? Could be community specific. Provides a scientific methodology to recognize WTE and more sustainable landfill practices, but still rewards recycling efforts. Reaching 75% is still a challenge. 102
103 What is the Appropriate SMM Metric? Metric Greenhouse Gases Energy Consumption Water Consumption Acidification Potential Community decides which is the most important to become the objective metric Objective Metric Baselines Reporting Measurements 103
104 Expanded View of SMM as a Tool Composting Food Waste Aerobic Digestion Landfill 104
105 Expanded View of SMM as a Tool Consumption Composting Agriculture Practice Manufacturing Food Waste Anaerobic Digestion Landfill 105
106 Next Steps Our team will keep working throughout the summer to: Refine materials flow estimates Synthesize cost data and refine environmental burden footprint Evaluate feasibility and outcome of alternative waste management strategies Continue to explore SMM metrics as a tool RFT webinar June 28 SWANA Summer Meeting July
