      • Application of Circular Economy towards Waste Management and Resource Recovery in Australia

        ( Sunil Herat ) 한국폐기물자원순환학회(구 한국폐기물학회) 2021 한국폐기물자원순환학회 심포지움 Vol.2021 No.1

        In Australia, waste generation activities are commonly categorised into Municipal solid waste (MSW), Commercial and Industrial (C&I) waste, and Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste. In 2016-17, Australia generated an estimated 67 million tonnes (Mt) of waste including 17.1 Mt of masonry materials, 14.2 Mt of organics, 12.3 Mt of ash, 6.3 Mt of hazardous waste (mainly contaminated soil), 5.6 Mt of paper and cardboard and 5.5 Mt of metals. This is equivalent to 2.7 tonnes (t) per capita. In 2016-17, there was about 54 Mt of ‘core waste’ - that managed within the waste and resource recovery sector (2.2 t per capita). This comprised 13.8 Mt (560 kg per capita) of municipal solid waste (MSW) from households and local government activities, 20.4 Mt from the commercial and industrial (C&I) sector and 20.4 Mt from the construction and demolition (C&D) sector. The 2018 National Waste Policy provides a framework for collective action by businesses, governments, communities and individuals until 2030. The policy identifies five overarching principles underpinning waste management in a circular economy. These include: ㆍAvoid waste ㆍImprove resource recovery ㆍIncrease use of recycled material and build demand and markets for recycled products ㆍ Better manage material flows to benefit human health, the environment and the economy ㆍImprove information to support innovation, guide investment and enable informed consumer decisions (http://www.environment.gov.au/protection/waste/how-we-manage-waste/national-waste-policy) The measures to transition towards a circular economy are gaining considerable traction in Australia, in particular, post- China’s National Sword Policy. These measures include creation and diversification of recycling markets locally through product development and testing and procurement, education of consumers to reinforce the need for increased and better recycling, and their engagement to enable better outcomes, contamination reduction in recycled material to enable it to be used both locally and internationally in new markets, and investment in new technology to better sort and process recyclables. National activities such as National Food Waste Strategy (launched in 2017), National Product Stewardship Act 2011, which includes the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme, and the National Packaging Covenant have fuelled the move towards circularity in waste management and resource recovery. At the State level, circular economy has been incorporated in their policies and strategies. In particular a number of States have recently implemented container deposit systems (South Australia in 1977, New South Wales in 2017, Queensland in 2018, and Western Australia in 2019). The New South Wales Circular Economy Policy Statement (2019), Recycling Victoria - A New Economy (2020), Supporting the Circular Economy- South Australia’s Waste Strategy 2020-2025, and Western Australia’s Waste Avoidance and Resource Recover Strategy 2030 are some of the latest policy documents that have mainstreamed circular economy in waste management policies.

      • E-waste Management and Resource Recovery Potential in Asia and the Pacific

        ( Sadhan Kumar Ghosh ),( Sunil Herat ),( Atsushi Terazono ),( Jinhui Li ),( S. W. Rhee ),( P. Agamuthu ),( N. T. Thắng ) 한국폐기물자원순환학회(구 한국폐기물학회) 2019 ISSE 초록집 Vol.2019 No.-

        The Asia and the Pacific region refer to the execution of regional activities of the organization which includes more than 50 countries in the region. In 2013, the total population of the Asia-Pacific region stood at 4.3 billion, nearly 60 per cent of the world’s population hosting the two most populous countries in the world, China with 1.4 billion people and India with 1.25 billion people. The region has witnessed widespread changes in resource consumption due to the forces of globalization, industrialization, and urbanization. The Asia and Pacific region has become the world’s largest consumer of materials at the beginning of the 21st century having enormous potential for future expansion of material consumption due to the region’s large overall population, rapidly escalating urban population. The e-waste generation like other waste streams also has been rapidly increasing in last two decades in the region impacting the environment negatively. The export of e-waste emerged as an international issue in the early 2000s, particularly following the publication of the widely reported documentary by the Basel Action Network (BAN). Concerns of primitive e-waste recycling practices in many countries have become an important issue to improve and resolve. As a complex and relatively recent waste stream, countries all over the world including the region have been introducing specific legislation to enforce sound environmental treatment of e-waste. As yet, only the minority of states around the globe have national and regional e-waste legislation in force. However, e-waste remains a challenge in the Asia and the Pacific region, not only because of its increasing generation, but also because its proper treatment and prevention require the active engagement of a diverse set of actors, often spanning national borders. Recovery of huge resources is being lost because of ineffective handling and treatment of e-waste in consequence evolving significant environmental and health issues. In this backdrop, the present study covered the inventory of the existing electronic waste management that includes the generation, collection, treatment and final disposal in different countries in the Asia and the Pacific region and developing a e-waste management framework for future actions and a sustainable business model. The countries those were considered for the study included bigger countries, namely, Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, North Korea, Malaysia, Republic of Korea, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Viet Nam etc. and the smaller countries like, SIDs, Vanuatu, Samoa, even the smallest one, the Niue.

      • TIME TO EMPTY YOUR DRAWERS: COM-B MECHANISMS INCREASING E-WASTE RECYCLING RATES

        Yue Xi,Sharyn Rundle-Thiele,Carina Roemer,Jeawon Kim,Sunil Herat 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2023 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2023 No.07

        Electronic waste (E-waste) has become a long-standing global concern. People are purchasing new affordable and improved technologies long before the end-of-life (EOL)’s of their old devices, which is leading to overconsumption and growing volumes of e-waste. At present, official data indicates that 80% of the volume of e-waste is not formally treated globally. The complex nature of e-waste recycling processes is a significant challenge.
