Dear Editor

RE: “Raging Against the (Pop) Machine” (October/November 2014 edition) Really great editorial on deposit return systems last month. As a solid waste professional in Winnipeg I have had similar musings about the CBCRA experiment here in Manitoba. I am not convinced that a goal of 70 per cent diversion for beverage containers, absent any penalties or timelines in the legislation, will translate into significantly increased container diversion.

Even if the goal is achieved, Manitobans will still be 10-20 per cent behind deposit jurisdictions like Alberta where 80 to 90 per cent diversion is already achieved.

As an added flaw, our bottles will not be reused and are more likely to be downcycled due to much higher contamination rates in the multi-stream blue bin collection systems versus deposit return.

I think another factor that may drive a policy shift towards deposits is the increasing concentration junk food is getting as a social sin. You compared bottled water to cigarettes, but the analogy goes even farther for soft drinks. Obesity is the new lung cancer, and poor diet and inactivity the related social ills. While obesity is much more complicated, there is certainly a case for high calorie, high sugar foods being at least one of the causes.

The soda sellers certainly don’t want to pay for a deposit return system and, perhaps more importantly, they don’t want to impede the convenience of single serve beverages. Deposit return has the added side benefit of making soft drinks a tiny bit more expensive and a bit more inconvenient if one wants to reclaim the deposit. Bad for the soda sellers, but good for waistlines and the associated healthcare spending that comes from those extra inches.

National deposit return would be a step in the right direction both for energy and material efficiency as well as for improved human health. Now if we can just get the lawmakers to pay attention to the people rather than the guys making sugary drinks...

Keep up the fight Guy!

Dear Editor

RE: “ Waste to Ethanol” (October/November 2012 edition and 2014 update)

Two years ago the October/ November issue of Solid Waste & Recycling published an interesting article titled “Waste to Ethanol” The article noted that Enerkem Inc., a Quebec based company, was constructing a commercial facility in Edmonton, Alberta, to annually convert 100,000 tonnes of post-recycled municipal solid waste to 38 million litres of ethanol. The article identified two significant process challenges: 1) the cost of the complex processes and 2) the consistency of the feed stock.

In mid-2013, media reports confirmed that construction of the Edmonton facility was complete with fine tuning of the process equipment underway. And so we were pleased to receive the October/November 2014 issue of Solid Waste & Recycling with the front cover advertising an article on the Enerkem biofuel facility in Edmonton.

The article is primarily a repeat of Enerkem’s earlier promotional information detailing expectations for the waste to biofuel conversion technology. This latest article on the Edmonton facility is silent on current performance statistics related to process cost, resource conservation, throughput and environmental compliance.

The Canadian waste management industry is painfully aware of the discrepancy between new technology promotional expectations and realistic “on-line” performance. Recent examples are to be found in the $350-million plasma arc fiasco in Ottawa and the $50-million failure of the waste pelletizing project in York, Ontario.

Mature and efficient risk-free combustion technology, which is the mainstay of facilities converting post recycled municipal solid waste to renewable energy, will continue to offer reliable low processing cost, resource conservation, and the highest environmental compliance, to achieve significant waste diversion objectives.

ndustry veteran Don Holliday, formerly with Van Dyk Recycling Solutions, has opened his own consulting firm, which he started in August of this year with Seena Kroeker.

According to Holliday, the purpose of Holliday Recycling Technologies is to optimize efficiencies in current recycling facilities. This will lead to reduced costs, and higher profit margins. Additional outcomes are increased system through-put, a higher purity rate in the end products (commodities), and labour savings.

“Our number one focus at is to help our customers increase long term profitability,” Holliday says.

Holliday comments that he has 38 years in the recycling industry: “18 years in your plant” selling and deDon Holliday signing recycling equipment and systems for Van Dyk Recycling Solutions; “15 years at your curb” with the Blue Box as owner of A-1 Products (Don developed the first specifically designed blue box); and, “five years in industry” selling/ developing plastic containers for Industrial/commercial recycling as a shareholder of Techstar Plastics.

Stewardship Ontario to pay municipalities total of $115 million

O

ntario’s 2014 Blue Box arbitration has concluded with municipalities getting the additional $20-million rebate they’d fought for. Total costs going to the municipalities will now total more than $115 million.

Arbitrator Robert Armstrong used municipal Datacall info to provide “a reliable figure” for the latest negotiation.

Stewardship Ontario (SO), concerned with escalating costs from municipalities, had been arguing to pay $95.6 million as a number that reflected reasonable costs, a point that’s defined within the Cost Containment Plan (CCP) approved in 2004 by Waste Diversion Ontario and the Ministry of the Environment.

“In conclusion,” stated Armstrong’s 121-page decision released on Nov. 25, “I find that under section 25(5) of the [Waste Diversion] Act, the obligation that Stewardship Ontario pay 50 per cent of the total net costs incurred by the municipalities as a result of the program is limited by the requirement that such costs be reasonable.”

Armstrong added: “What becomes of the CCP and the use of computer models in future years will be for others to decide. One would hope that the parties will be able to move forward and build on much of what they have been able to agree upon in the past.”

While the Waste Diversion Act, 2002, states that stewards pay 50 per cent of municipal net costs incurred, this has not always been the case, and negotiations continue to be problematic. What exactly constitutes “costs incurred” is one of the major points of contention. Armstrong rejected the municipalities’ argument that the CCP is not binding under the Waste Diversion Act. The verified Ontario municipal net costs for the Blue Box at this round of complex negotiations stands at approximately $230 million.

COVER STORY

by Claudia Marsales “Clear bags actually reduced collection costs by $350,000 in 2013 because of reduced tonnage at the curb.”

Markham’s diversion program succeeds with clear bags over carts

O

Clear Winner

verwhelming success might seem like hyperbole, but one year in, there’s no better way to describe Markham’s move to a clear bag waste collection program.

By every measure, this new initiative has exceeded expectations, providing the city with a firm foundation for meeting its goal of be-

coming a zero waste community. The evolution from traditional black garbage bags to clear bags has enabled this community of 320,000 on Toronto’s northern border to increase its residential curbside diversion rate by nine per cent, from 72 to 81 per cent. And while high diversion is a key metric for Markham, it’s only part of the story.

In 2013, Markham Council approved a new diversion strategy called The Best of the Best—Markham’s Roadmap to 80% Diversion.

A cornerstone of the strategy was a switch to clear garbage bags in 2013, and a ban on curbside collection of e-waste and batteries, in preparation for waste going to the new York/Durham incinerator.

A clear bag system would have the added benefit of supporting any future curbside material bans Markham may consider, such as textiles and styrofoam.

While many municipalities are choosing to invest significant capital into expensive curbside cart systems, Markham determined that since carts can hide many recycling “sins,” it could only achieve the desired compliance, diversion and consumer behaviour change with a clear garbage bag system. Additionally, carts have long-term operational, maintenance and replacement costs that aren’t issues with a bag-based system.

SOCIAL EFFECTS A key consideration for Markham was the social and behavioural effects of clear bags. Community pressure can be a powerful tool. Transparent bags have the benefit of providing a level of social marketing for collection day, as residents take greater care to ensure their curbside waste (visible to all) is free of recyclables, organics and hazardous materials.

In this way, Markham found that clear bags work very much like the blue box in setting societal norms that residents feel they should meet. Blue box and clear bag programs are the essence of community engagement, helping build social cohesion and changing behaviour.

With clear bags, nobody can opt out of recycling by purchasing extra 8 www.solidwastemag.com December 2014/January 2015

COVER STORY

“Carts get old. They, like us, suffer through harsh Canadian winters.” garbage tags or a larger cart — everyone has to separate and participate.

Each “home’s” environmental commitment is at the curb for all to judge.

The clear challenge was going to be community acceptance of clear bags.

While many residents supported the concept of receiving a free garbage cart from their municipality, clear bag focus group sessions held in 2011 indicated no support for a clear garbage bag system. Focus group participants cited privacy issues worried about the possibility of “garbage police.”

To overcome the community’s initial reluctance, Markham launched an awareness program to address residents’ concerns. Residents were informed via Green Bin Tips that personal papers, bills, shredded paper and hygiene products should go in the green bin. By the program’s launch date in April 2013, residents no longer had privacy concerns.

Unwavering council support for Markham’s clear bag program has been essential. In Markham’s case, the transition to clear bags was led

by Deputy Mayor Jack Heath, who made it his priority to obtain and maintain council support during the transition.

Early on in the process, city staff recognized the importance of ensuring clear bags were in the stores well in advance of the launch date. To achieve this, they contracted an experienced retail consultant (Visionquest Environmental Strategies), who mapped all of the retail locations. Store managers and buyers ensured clear bags would be on the shelves and easily accessible from the outset. Ensuring that the right product was available at the right place and at the right time was a critical component of the bag plan.

COVER STORY

HAVE A GOLD STAR Markham decided to take social marketing to the next level by having collectors reward early adopters using the clear bag system properly. These folks were presented with a gold star sticker on their green bin that read, “You are a star! Congratulations!” The star stickers, using a large sheriff-like gold star, quickly became a point of pride in the community. You would see them being proudly worn around town, and even to city council meetings.

Financially, the clear bag program was originally projected to be cost neutral; however, the new bags actually reduced collection costs by $350,000 in 2013 because of reduced tonnage at the curb.

The explanation lies within the system’s built-in efficiencies: clear garbage bags enabled the curbside collection ban of electronics, batteries and grass clippings to be more easily

enforced by collectors. Clear bags with visible recyclables or organics are left at the curb to be re-sorted.

One month after the April 2013 launch date, over 80 per cent of set outs at the curb were in clear bags. A reminder sticker process helped transition the remaining 20 per cent to use clear bags by June. Residents soon realized that the clear bag is just another bag. Instead of buying a traditional black garbage bag, residents now buy a clear one, and while there was some resistance to the idea initially, there is now great enthusiasm for the program.

The future of a cart-based system in Markham is murky at best. Carts get old.

They, like us, suffer through harsh Canadian winters. They will not last forever and will eventually need to be repaired or replaced. Markham was reluctant to designate significant resources and staff time to the storage,

repair and replacement of broken carts, adding another significant cost layer to its operating budget. Would residents or taxpayers be expected to pay for replacement carts if they are lost, damaged or stolen?

With its new diversion plan, Markham challenged itself to deliver a cost-effective program that increased diversion and was safe for the collectors and the public, who came to accept the new system. By all of these measures, clear bags have been a clear success.

Despite more than 20 years of extensive community education (magnets, pamphlets, newsletters), waste diversion in Markham had stalled. In the clear bag’s first year, residents across the city started recycling again— with gusto—proving that perhaps public scrutiny motivates people to recycle like nothing else.

Double or Nothing Machinex doubles recycling capacity at Quebec facility

S

ince the beginning of operations last spring, the Machinex sorting center for Quebec City has been significantly modernized in order to meet growing volumes of material processed at the plant. This growth can be attributed to the addition of industrial, commercial and institutional (IC&I) waste collection and the need to obtain an increased quality of commodities.

A close collaboration of stakeholders for the city, the facility operator, Société VIA, and the equipment manufacturer, Machinex, has allowed for the implementation of an optimal sorting array.

“We are very pleased with the offer made by Machinex and with their support all along the way,” says Stephan Bugay, Director of Residual Materials Management of Public Works for the city.

by Karine Moreau “This new service will divert 25,000 tonnes of incineration within three years.”

The system receives 60,000 tonne of waste per year, treats 35 tonnes per hour, and produces high-quality materials.

According to David Marcouiller, Project Director at Machinex, the first phase of modernization for this system has allowed the city to double the capacity and effectiveness of the sorting center.

Fiber quality control.

“The mechanical separation has been increased and the quality is now greatly improved,” explains Bugay. “We now have a modern material recovery facility (MRF) with which one can get a better price for the commodities.”

The more efficient equipment can be used to process more material and also accept new materials, such as plastic #6 and plastic film.

System upgrade During the first steps of mechanical sorting, glass is removed with the OCC Disc Screen Separator and the Scalping Screen, preventing premature wear of equipment by glass attrition. Other features included are: a feeding drum that allows the sorting line to have a constant material flow, a bag opener (as an aspiration system that enables the acceptance of plastic film and materials in plastics bags), disc screen separators to recycle newsprint, as well as pre-sorting stations and quality control.

Also, a MACH Ballistic Separator is located toward the end of the system and has reduced rejection rates while increasing fibre material recovery.

Quebec City is planning a second phase, within three years, for the addition of optical sorting machines to optimize the containers line.

These investments will meet the expectations of the province’s environment ministry and the Quebec Policy on Waste Management and offer an identical service to citizens and businesses.

Free IC&I collection Quebec City has offered free collection of recyclable materials to the IC&I sector since June 2014. This new service will divert 25,000 tonnes of incineration within three years.

“We’ve asked citizens to recover for several years and it is now up to the IC&I to do its part,” says Steve Verret, Executive Committee Member Responsible for Environmental Issues. “Before offering this collection, it was necessary to ensure that our sorting center can receive these materials. This is now possible thanks to the upgrades that were made to the system this spring?.”

Accepted materials are the same as in the residential collection, including paper, cardboard, glass, metal, plastic, and multilayer containers (e.g., pints of milk, juice, etc.). The Quebec City has established a team to advise on the best practices and facilities for IC&I sorting and collection. The consulting services of the team are free while the containers in which the recyclable material is collected will have to be funded.

The majority of IC&I entities pay for waste collection and disposal by the tonne. Savings are possible for many of them if they participate in the collection of recyclable materials, as this decreases the volume of residual waste produced.

To date, over 900 companies are listed in the program — a fact with which city officials are pleased.

London Calling A look at London Machinery, Canadian distributor of McNeilus waste and recycling vehicles

The Split Body Rear Loader is designed for dual stream routes. The Split Body Rear Loader is available in two body sizes (25 and 32 cubic yard) and two configurations (a 60/40 or a 75/25 split) to meet the needs of your operation.The tailgates operate completely independent of each other. There are controls on both sides of the tailgate so you can pack from either side of the truck. And, because we offer automatic tailgate locks, you can more safely eject your load at mixed use recycling centers from inside the cab.

L

ondon Machinery Inc. (LMI) is gearing up to serve a new major waste management customer.

The London, Ontario-based company is the sole Canadian distributor of McNeilus waste and recycling vehicles, which recently landed a multi-unit order for more than 40 CNG-powered Split Body Rear Loaders destined for the Emterra Group of Burlington, Ontario.

McNeilus Truck & Manufacturing Inc., located in Dodge Center, Minnesota, is a manufacturer of refuse truck bodies and concrete mixers. The Emterra sale represents one of the largest orders of McNeilus refuse vehicles in Canada.

The Split Body Rear Loader is designed for dual-stream collec-

tion and is available in two body sizes (25 and 32 cubic yards) and two configurations (40/60 and 75/25 split). The dual tailgates operate independently of one another and have controls on both sides of the tailgate, which allows for packing from either side of the truck.

Paulina Leung, Vice President of Emterra’s corporate strategy and business development, says they chose McNeilus because “right from the outset, their team demonstrated they were very prepared and understood our needs and requirements.”

“We also visited their facilities and could see firsthand some of the quality control assurances McNeilus has in effect,” she says.

and marketing of waste removal for municipalities, commercial, industrial and institutional clients throughout Canada and Michigan.

As part of its mandate to increase sustainability to its operation, a big consideration in Emterra’s choice to expand its fleet was the compressed natural gas (CNG) powered vehicles offered by McNeilus. They were also cognizant of the availability of service and parts.

“Here in Canada, London Machinery has the team and mandate to provide the customer support and service we expect,” Leung says.

Delivery of Emterra’s new vehicles will take place next year and the fleet will be deployed in the Greater Toronto Area.

by John Nicholson “The number of mercurycontaining bulbs in use is only going to grow.”

Bright Ideas

In Canada, no federal regs exist for managing lights containing mercury

A

nyone who cares about the environment must have cringed during the on-screen antics in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, when Steve Carell’s co-workers smash fluorescent light bulbs during a work break at their electronics store.

Most Canadians are aware that fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury and shouldn’t just be smashed for amusement, regardless of how fun it may be. Smashing fluorescent light bulbs releases toxic mercury vapour. The mercury bioaccumulates in the environment, meaning animals higher on the food chain receive greater concentrations of mercury from their food.

Rules across Canada In the United States, management and disposal of used fluorescent lights and other lights containing mercury (LCMs) for businesses is regulated under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and the Universal Waste Rule. The rules do not extend to households. Some northeastern states, and California, have more stringent rules for managing LCMs. In Canada, no such federal regulations exist for managing LCMs. Instead, provinces have different rules and programs for managing LCMs. Two of the more advanced provinces in terms of regulations for used LCMs are Quebec and British Columbia. Both provinces have extended producer responsibility (EPR) programs for light bulbs. In BC, manufacturers and importers of lights, ballasts and fixtures are required to pay fees from 10 cents to $2.50, depending on the item. In Quebec, consumers pay a recycling fee of 50 cents for a 48-inch fluorescent bulb.

Upfront fees cover the cost of running the collection and recycling program.

Manitoba has an industry-led stewardship program for the management of light bulbs and other household hazardous waste. Product Care, the not-for-profit industry association, is responsible for managing the stewardship program.

In Newfoundland, the Crown-owned Multi-Materials Stewardship Board (MMSB) develops, implements and manages waste diversion and recycling programs, including a voluntary one for light bulbs.

Technology for recycling A fluorescent light bulb has four major components: metal, phosphor powder, mercury and glass. Separating these four components means first crushing the bulbs. Then, the phosphor powder and mercury are captured in a filter and typically sent off-site for thermal separation. The metal is separated from the glass using a magnetic separator. All the separated components can be reused to make new light bulbs.

Industrial-sized fluorescent bulb recycling equipment can be purchased from a number of vendors. The more advanced systems can handle multiple bulb types including straight, circular, U-shaped and

high-intensity discharge lamps (HID). The advanced systems also operate under negative pressure to prevent the release of fugitive emissions.

Based on my informal survey, there are less than a dozen facilities scattered across Canada that actually recycle LCMs. Some of the companies have been in business since the early 1990s. Although it should not be considered a complete listing, the table identifies the companies and their locations.

Business opportunities In the United States, approximately 650 million fluorescent bulbs are replaced annually. Based on US data, the number of fluorescent bulbs replaced annually in Canada is more in the neighbourhood of 65 million.

Canada’s ban on incandescent light bulbs has been in force since January 1, 2014. This means that the number of mercury-containing bulbs in use—and eventually needing replacement—is only going to grow.

If EPR programs similar to Quebec and British Columbia take hold across Canada, and there are revenues upfront to fund recycling programs, growth in the LCM recycling industry is inevitable. And with growth of the industry comes innovation and green jobs.

A strong example of innovation taking place in the world of light bulb recycling is the reverse vending machine for light bulbs invented by a company in the United Kingdom called Reverse Vending. The machines are in 100,000 locations across the world, such as IKEA’s stores in Europe. The reverse vending machine makes it very simple and safe for consumers to recycle their LCMs and even receive credits or rewards for doing so.

Wheel Loader Attachments Increase ROI with attachments to fit your recycling and scrap handling needs

E

fficiently running a recycle/scrap handling operation often requires wheel loaders to switch between attachments several times a day. Choosing the right attachments for your application needs and knowing how to properly maintain them can help you spend less time making these adjustments and increase your overall ROI.

Couplers: promoting versatility Couplers can dramatically improve the efficiency of a wheel loader. With increased attachment flexibility, couplers allow operators to safely switch between two completely different attachments in a matter of seconds without leaving the cab or requiring the assistance of another person. This means more productivity, less downtime and greater job efficiency.

When buying a wheel loader with a coupler, make sure the coupler has the proper interchange to work with your existing attachments.

Most companies offer couplers with one of the many common industry interchanges as well as couplers with their own interchanges. Other companies sell couplers that can work with more than one interchange.

For example, the JRB Multi-Pick-Up Coupler, manufactured by Paladin Attachments, can pick up JRB 416 Series attachments as well as ISO attachments, making it even easier for operators to switch between attachments.

JRB Multi-Pick-Up Coupler – The JRB Multi-Pick-Up Coupler allows you to quickly and safely switch between “quick hitch” style wheel loader attachments.

The fit between the coupler and attachment is very important and should be checked regularly. With the coupler locked to the attachment, check the fit by rolling the attachment forward and measuring the gap between the stop block and the rib stop surface. In general, the maximum allowable gap is 0.080 inches (2.032 mm). Check your operator’s manual for exact measurements. A very tight fit may not allow free movement of the plungers.

Buckets: move more material It may seem like a simple attachment, but choosing the right bucket can help you perform specific jobs more efficiently. Before you buy a bucket for your wheel loader, think about how you’ll be using it most often and what type of material you will be moving in order to choose the best fit for your application: • General Purpose Buckets: Standard buckets appropriate for use in most basic hauling and loading applications.

• Refuse/Transfer Buckets: Specifically designed for use in landfill and transfer station applications, they feature a spill guard to help keep material in the bucket.

• Multi-Purpose Buckets: One bucket, multiple tools. These buckets easily convert to dig, load, spread, grab and doze.

• Side Dump Buckets: Use these buckets to easily dump material from the side in confined, hard to maneuver areas.

It’s important to know the size and hydraulic capabilities of your wheel loader as well as the weight and abrasiveness of the material you will be hauling before purchasing a bucket attachment. Depending on its size, a wheel loader can only handle a certain capacity. If you aren’t sure what bucket attachment is best for your machine and application, ask your local dealer what he recommends.

Forks: scrap yard staple

JRB Refuse/Transfer Bucket – The JRB Refuse/Transfer Bucket features a heavy-duty round tube design with a visibility spill guard to handle heaping loads.

Available in a wide variety of carriage and tine lengths, fork attachments help extend your wheel loader’s versatility when transporting pallets and other items such as pipes and logs. It’s important to always

space your fork attachment tines correctly for the load you will be handling. Also, make sure forks are completely under a load before lifting it.

Loads can fall off of incorrectly spaced forks. Choose from the following fork attachments for your recycle/scrap handling operation: • Car Body Forks: Designed specifically for use in auto salvage yards, car body forks use tapered tines with beveled tips to ensure easy separation of cars from a load. Most are available in two different lengths to handle cars the long way or the wide way.

• Construction Utility Forks: Turn your wheel loaders into a versatile heavy-duty forklift to safely transport large loads. Drop-forged, fixed tines provide increased sturdiness and reduce material movement while it is being transported over uneven terrain.

INCREASE YOUR ATTACHMENT’S LIFESPAN 1. Clean the attachment thoroughly, removing all mud, dirt and grease.

2. Inspect for visible signs of wear, breakage or damage. Order any parts required and make the necessary repairs to avoid delays when starting next season.

3. Tighten all loose nuts, capscrews and hydraulic connections.

4. Lubricate all grease fittings.

5. Coat the exposed portions of the cylinder rods with grease.

6. Connect the hydraulic couplers together to protect the hydraulic system from contaminates.

7. Touch up all unpainted and exposed areas with paint to prevent rust.

8. Replace decals if damaged or unreadable.

9. Store the attachment in a dry, protected place with a cover, if possible. Leaving the attachment outside will shorten its life.

JRB Grapple Bucket – Minimize time spent switching between attachments by purchasing a grapple/bucket combination attachment.

• Utility Pallet Forks: These standard fork attachments are designed to lift and transport pallets and other long materials with ease.

Grapples: tighten your grasp Designed to help you pick up bulky, unusually shaped or long materials, grapple attachments contain material that would not stay in an ordinary bucket. Depending on your job requirements, you can minimize time spent switching between attachments by purchasing a grapple/bucket combination attachment. A grapple will help hold oddly shaped materials tightly in place since their bulky shape and size may prevent them from staying in the bucket.

The Great White Composting North In the North, there’s the kind of social media where people actually speak to each other

by Paul van der Werf

P

art of composting’s inherent beauty is that it’s simple. It clearly encompasses the zero waste goal “to emulate sustainable natural cycles.” This makes composting particularly easy to implement virtually anywhere.

I’ve never been to the Northwest Territories, but going there is on one of those to-do lists that middle-agers like to create for themselves.

Truth be told, I’m as much interested in painting the North as I am looking forward to seeing its waste management systems.

As large source-separated organics (SSO) programs have proliferated in various parts of the country, particularly in large urban centres, many small and more remote municipalities are being left out. They don’t have the obvious economies of scale to viably pay for the types of technologies that larger municipalities can afford, yet they still have the same types of waste diversion goals.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise, however, that our northern cousins are passionate about waste management. A March 2014 publication entitled “Feasibility of Centralized Composting in Hay River, Northwest Territories, Canada” starts with the optimistic lament, “Recently, communities … have expressed a desire to recycle like their southern counterparts.”

While the North-South word interplay makes me think that we

“Believe it or not, some of these challenges or barriers also present opportunities.”

southerners are viewed with a bit of (probably well deserved) “know-it-all” suspicion, I suspect (hope) this is easily broken down with a little deference and sped up when supplemented with a dollop of (funny) self-deprecation.

(Especially when they find out we really don’t know everything.)

Regardless, the North’s lament embodies the energy needed to investigate not so much what we southerners do, but to see if there is a way that northerners can manage aspects of their environmental performance in a way that suits their own unique place, needs and budget.

Success stories The City of Yellowknife (population 22,000), perched on Great Slave Lake, in conjunction with the ubiquitous NGO Ecology North, ran a composting pilot project from 2009 to 2014. Rather than focusing on the single-family residential stream, the city started with both the industrial, commercial and institutional (IC&I) stream, and the multi-family stream. (44 per cent of Yellowknifers live in multi-family buildings.)

They were able to divert close to 1,000 tonnes of organic waste over the life of the project. A pilot scale windrow-method composting facility was developed at the city’s landfill. A key area of research was to gauge interest and participation in the program, as well as to identify barriers and develop strategies for composting in a colder climate.

The composting process in Hay River is approached in the same way as the South, except that the windrow facilities are essentially put to sleep during the winter, with minimal turning or other activity.

“During the initial stages of the Yellowknife Centralized Composting centralized composting program in November. The program started with Pilot Project, a key barrier was the belief that Yellowknife’s climate was curbside collection of SSO in one neighbourhood and within four years too cold to support a successful composting program,” says Shannon will be expanded to all single-family dwellings.

Tightly-knit social networks allow word-of-mouth and community learning to advance organics diversion quickly.

Territories in Hay River, the so called “Hub of the North,” which looks wonderfully isolated, hanging on to Great Slave Lake’s southern shore at the mouth of the river.

The aforementioned Ecology North undertook preliminary feasibility desktop research to, among other things, see if it’s possible to include paper (that in less remote communities gets recycled) and can be co-composted with other sources of organic waste, thereby giving the opportunity to divert up to 60 per cent of the waste stream. The research was considerably broader than that. The consultants also investigated the best way to manage the various organic waste streams (e.g., SSO, manure, paper waste) in their town.

Hay River evaluated three possible scenarios: composting poultry manure and paper waste at a poultry farm; composting SSO and paper waste at the town’s landfill site; and, composting of SSO paper and aged chicken manure at a proposed farm training institute. The town ultimately recommended the development of two composting facilities: one

to manage poultry manure directly at the farm, and another to manage SSO at the town’s landfill or anther location.

The composting process is approached in the same way as the South, except that the windrow facilities would essentially be put to sleep during the winter, while seeing minimal turning and other activity. Staff are currently working on next steps, including the development of a pilot composting program.

“The outlook for composting in the NWT during the next five years is very bright,” says Ripley. “In addition to the projects already mentioned, small-scale community garden and home composting projects, including some organics collection from local restaurants and grocery stores, are taking root in a number of other NWT communities, including Inuvik and Dél’n’.”

Changing the Tide to 3Rcertified Award winners are unflinching about audit procedures and verification

Staff from 3Rcertified Exhibition Place in Toronto at the awards ceremony with RCO Executive Director (far right in the red dress).

t the writing of this article for the December/January 2014 edition of Solid Waste and Recycling magazine, Waste Reduction Week and all the frenzy that surrounds it has been put to bed for another year, the entrails ready to be examined and, hopefully, improved in 2015.

While government wrestles with legislation to improve sluggish performance in reducing and recycling waste, it behooves us to shine a light on organizations that have outstanding results and whose position on waste issues are a model for what could and should be done in the industrial, commercial and institutional (IC&I) sectors. The following is a mix of traditional Recycling Council of Ontario (RCO) Awards winners and the latest organizations to achieve 3RCertification.

3RCertified® (3rcertified.ca) is a points-based certification program for buildings in the IC&I sectors that reviews how organizations manage solid waste reduction and diversion operations. 3RCertified brought a number of different sectors to the podium in 2014: 1. Chatham-Kent Health Alliance participated in the 3RCertified pilot and became the first hospital to be certified, achieving gold status.

2. Oakville Town Hall was the first municipal building to be certified with silver status.

3. Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care achieved silver level status.

4. Telus House at 25 York Street, Toronto, managed by Menkes Property Management, attained certified gold status.

5. Bell Trinity Square at 483 Bay Street, managed by Northam Realty, attained certified gold status.

6. Procter & Gamble at 4711 Yonge Street, Toronto, managed by Menkes Property Management, achieved certified gold status.

7. Meadowvale North Business Park (four-building complex), managed

by Bentall Kennedy, achieved certified gold status.

8. Exhibition Place (entertainment and conference venue) was certified for platinum status.

Exhibition Place has a revered history in Toronto, having grown from a trade hub (Fort Rouille) in 1750 to a modern day entertainment, conference and sporting facility covering 192 acres on Toronto’s Lakeshore Road.

Needless to say, the variety of buildings and activities that take place

at the Ex presents a myriad of waste issues that management has tackled head on with the goal of being the best in class among their peers. A long-range plan, GREENSmart, implemented by Exhibition Place CEO Dianne Young, has comprehensively addressed solid waste, as well as the conservation of energy and other resources, bringing a number of accolades and distinction to the venue.

3RCertified is the latest undertaking by Exhibition Place to hone their solid waste initiatives into the world-class program envisioned

by Young, and one would have to say, in view of their new platinum status, mission accomplished. The certification process was handled by a team headed up by facilities manager Ron Mills. It was executed on the ground by project lead Brian Dow, and assisted by their audit team from Pragmatech (formerly Efficient Waste).

In the Awards Program, the platinum trophies were taken home by some veteran 3R champions. Woodbine Entertainment Group took the top prize in the IC&I sector—another venue where the waste complexity presents particular challenges. As with Exhibition Place, Woodbine’s involvement with livestock puts a slightly different spin on the handling of organics versus the run-of-the-mill food waste dealt with by most other facilities.

Ricoh Canada, a multi-national manufacturer of office printing equipment, took the platinum award for sustainable products. Ricoh not only offers better document management to their clients to reduce paper and energy, it designs and builds sustainable equipment using a large quantity of re-fabricated plastics in the making of their photocopiers.

Sustainable design is at the forefront of all Ricoh equipment.

Finally, the top prize for program manager went to two organiza-

UNLOADING SOLUTIONS. Since 1973

tions: Raw Materials Company (RMC) and SLM Logistics. Neither of these organizations are household names, but if you have ever properly recycled a battery or two, RMC was most likely involved in the safe and sustainable processing of that item, regardless of battery type. And in perfect symbiosis, RMC is the processor of choice for many awardwinning organizations across North America that demand exacting standards for the handling of waste.

SLM, on the other hand, is where many a toaster or vacuum cleaner finds a recycling home when replaced by a sleeker, faster model. With household appliances more often being replaced rather than repaired, SLM has filled that void to salvage, repair and repatriate whatever has second-life potential, and maximize the recycling opportunities for everything else. They are reverse logistic experts serving electronics manufacturers and retailers, and the results of their recovery process means less waste to landfill and more recovered plastics for re-manufacture.

The one thing that all the platinum awardees have in common is that they are unflinching about proper audit procedures, tracking, monitoring and process transparency. No effort is too great to find recycling channels for every waste item. They communicate, educate and reach out to their employees, clients, guests and communities, setting an example for others to follow—and that, of course, defines leadership.

Fuel’s Paradise Benefits of a natural gas fleet

I

t’s an incredible time to capitalize on the benefits of natural gas as a fleet vehicle fuel.

Why now?

First, while oil and diesel prices have risen, the discovery of large North American natural gas supplies have driven prices lower today than they were a decade ago, and prices are expected to remain affordable for the foreseeable future. Second, there have been major improvements in natural gas engines, vehicles and fuel tank technologies, putting them on par with diesel equivalents. And third, increasingly strict vehicle exhaust emissions standards and regulations continue to be introduced.

Making the switch to compressed natural gas (CNG) as a vehicle fuel is an ideal way to take advantage of these changes. The first benefit is a significant cost savings. The second is reduced cost volatility. And the third is a smaller carbon footprint.

Virtually all vehicles that run on gasoline or diesel can be fuelled by compressed natural gas. It’s best for medium and heavy duty fleets that consume a lot of fuel such as transit, refuse and heavy highway tractors.

CNG is pipeline gas compressed and stored in cylinders at 3000 or 3600 psi. It can then be used as a bulk or transportation fuel.

Bulk Fuel • CNG can be transported over the road to a location not connected to gas • Used for process, power generation and/or heat instead of other fuels such as oil or diesel

Transportation Fuel • CNG can be used to fuel any type of vehicle • Delivery trucks, transit buses, refuse trucks, shunt trucks, heavy tractors, etc.

• It is ideal for any vehicle that is “return to base” ... continues on page 52

Out of the darkness comes one big, bright idea in residential waste collection.

Odyssey™ is the integrated front loader that combines versatility, simple operation, reduced need for maintenance, increased efficiency, and a lower cost to operate.

No other automated front loader has the innovative features Odyssey has, so no other front loader can do what Odyssey does.

• Integrated front loading: Curotto-Can® compatible • Smarter controls and electronics: easier to train on, operate, and diagnose • Lighter and leaner: reduced wear and increased economy • Predictive wear testing: weakness eliminated before production • StreetWise™ Hydraulic System: simplified, relocated, and multiple failure points eliminated • CNrG: innovative, fully integrated tailgate fuel delivery system

COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS

FLEET SOLUTIONS

If your fleet isn’t using natural gas, you’re wasting a precious resource.

Your money.

Natural gas is the only fuel that has actually dropped in price over the past decade. And that means if you’re using anything else, you’re throwing good money away. With annual at-the-pump savings of up to 50 per cent, now is the perfect time to convert to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).

As the appetite for low-cost, low-emission alternatives to diesel and gasoline continues to grow, so do the advantages of switching to a fuel that reduces costs, burns cleaner and helps you win and retain customers.

For more information, please send an email to ngtransport@uniongas.com.

A member of our dedicated CNG team will meet with you and answer your questions. If you’d like, Union Gas will provide a FREE, first-cut assessment of natural gas as a fuel for your fleet.

CNG is also ideal for a “return to base” operations, where a single fuelling station can service an entire fleet.

The American Natural Gas Vehicle Institute recently reported that 55 per cent of new waste and recycling trucks being ordered in the United States and 30 per cent of new transit buses are natural gas powered.

There are currently 7,500 natural gas powered waste and recycling trucks operating across the US. Fleet decision makers are clearly seeing the benefits.

On the cost front, switching to CNG will save approximately 40 per cent in “at the pump” fuel costs over gasoline and diesel. These savings can be greater if fleets invest in their own CNG fuelling station.

So, what might a typical payback period look like for a waste and recycling truck that does 45,000 kilometres a year with a fuel consumption of 62.4 litres/100km? An Original Equipment Manufactured (OEM) waste and recycling truck from major manufacturers typically has an incremental cost of roughly $40,000. That investment can be recovered in fewer than four years, based on a pump price spread of 45 cents per diesel litre equivalent.

Also consider the forecasted long-term stability of CNG prices. In the past, CNG prices were directly linked to the price of oil. Since approximately 2009, a significant price gap developed and remains today, thanks to abundant domestic natural gas supplies. Another attribute of CNG price stability is that natural gas can be easily hedged and can be purchased at a fixed price years into the future. Natural gas storage facilities like Union Gas’ Dawn hub near Sarnia, Ontario can help further limit volatility by balancing supply and demand.

Natural gas is an excellent way to meet stricter emissions standards. New heavy vehicle standards are set to come into effect in North America for model year 2016.With a 20-25 per cent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions and nearly 100 per cent reduction in mercury, sulphur dioxide and various particulates, natural gas is good for more than just a company’s bottom line.

Natural gas vehicles (NGVs) also offer other environmental benefits.

First, they can be up to 90 per cent quieter than their diesel counterparts.

One diesel bus operating at idle is as loud as 10 natural gas buses operating at idle.

Second, during vehicle refuelling, there are no evaporative emissions, as the connection between the fuel dispenser and vehicle creates a sealed system.

Third, natural gas does not pose any risk to soil or groundwater because it’s lighter than air and will rise into the atmosphere if released.

Significant technological improvements in the natural gas vehicle market, including new generation spark-ignited natural gas engines, allow NGVs to have comparable power and torque to diesel equivalents.

NGVs are also more readily available from all major manufacturers, with retrofit options available. Compressor fuelling station technology and fuel tank technology have also evolved.

These technological advancements, along with affordable natural gas prices and increasingly strict vehicle emissions regulations mean it’s the perfect time to consider making the switch to NGVs. Union Gas uniongas.com provides complimentary advisory services to any business considering making the conversion.

by Rosalind Cooper, L.L.B. “Only 10-15 per cent of mercury-containing lamps sold in Canada are recycled.”

Regulatory Developments across Canada Yukon expands recycling The Government of Yukon is planning to expand its existing recycling program. Recycling fees will now apply to additional categories of beverage containers and tires, and electronics will be added to the program.

The recycling program in Yukon is different than the extended producer responsibility (EPR) programs that exist in most other provinces.

Materials to be recycled are returned to depots by consumers, and the program is run by the government, which sets fees that are remitted and then used to retain contractors to manage shipments of materials to processing centres.

The proposal involves expanding beverage container recycling to all beverage containers, including milk and milk products. In place of the current system, where deposits vary with container size and contents, there will only be two categories of deposit amounts.

Dairy products and containers of one litre or less will require a 15 cent deposit, with 5 cents returned to the consumer upon return. All other containers will carry a 40-cent deposit, with 25 cents being returned to the consumer. The fee structure is intended to make the program self-sufficient. (Beverage container recycling has been subsidized by the government since 2008.)

Tire recycling will be expanded to include all tire categories with fees ranging from $7 to $60 depending on tire rim size. Tip fees for tires at landfill sites will be eliminated. The government also proposes a program to manage electronics, with fees ranging from 50 cents to $30 on a wide range of devices. Tip fees for electronics at transfer stations and landfills would be eliminated.

alternative end-of-life management practices for recyclables and compostables, and provides guidance on how these practices rank from an environmental perspective. The guideline also describes an accountability framework to enhance transparency of material flows, from collection to disposition, and identifies key elements of an audit and verification system. The final version of the draft guideline is expected to be published in March 2015.

Code of practice for mercury lamps Environment Canada recently published a discussion paper outlining a proposed code of practice to provide technical guidance for the environmentally sound management of mercury-containing lamps at end-of-life for remote areas and the North. Management includes diversion from the municipal waste stream, separation and recovery of the mercury-containing components, and recycling or stabilization and disposal of the waste mercury.

Diversion of mercury-containing lamps from landfill will avoid the difficulties and expense of managing mercury emissions in air, leachate and wastewater effluent. Currently, only 10-15 per cent of mercury-containing lamps sold in Canada are recycled. British Columbia, Manitoba and Quebec have legislated EPR programs that require manufacturers and importers of mercurycontaining lamps to establish or join a program that collects lamps and recovers the mercury. Ontario has a voluntary program in place and numerous municipalities run household hazardous waste depots to collect mercury lamps.

Ontario waste processor guideline

WDO consults on stewardship plans

A draft guideline entitled “Recycling process, audit, and verification Guideline for Ontario” has been issued by the Canadian Standards Association for primary and secondary waste material processors/converters in Ontario. The draft guideline was commissioned by the Ontario Waste Management Association (OWMA), which represents the waste and resource management sector in Ontario. The association believes it important for all recycling companies to be bound by the same rules in terms of quality and due diligence (to avoid some companies gaining an unfair advantage in bidding for projects, offering cheap services while not investing in their facilities).

The draft guideline defines a common set of performance standards and definitions in support of best practices. The draft guideline would apply to a broad range of end-of-life materials.

The draft guideline is based on life-cycle assessment that identifies

Waste Diversion Ontario (WDO) is consulting on two previously deferred industry stewardship plans for single-use batteries, and paints and coatings. These wastes are managed under the Municipal Hazardous or Special Waste Program operated by Stewardship Ontario (SO).

Call2Recycle Canada submitted an Industry Stewardship Plan (ISP) to operate an approved recycling program for consumer single-use batteries in Ontario on behalf of Ontario consumer battery stewards.

Product Care Association submitted an ISP to operate an approved recycling program for paints and coatings in Ontario on behalf of Ontario paints and coatings stewards. Both of the plans, which had been deferred, are now open for consultation.

Industry-versatile magnetic separator Industrial Magnetics’ innovative, Large Tube drawer magnet is proving itself to be an industry-versatile magnetic separator. Typically used in the food processing industry for products with difficult flow characteristics, such as flour or powdered sugar, the Large Tube Housing(LTH) has found recent success in a paper recycling operation.

The application involves shredding recycled news print, grinding it down into pulp and then remaking it into paper. The LTH rare earth magnet was installed after the shredding operation with two key tasks: to catch stray nuts or bolts in order to protect downstream grinding equipment, and to collect metallic fines to ensure a pure, metal-free end product.

The tubes are three times larger in diameter than in the company’s traditional drawer magnet housing, and also designed with 52MgOe rare earth magnet material; it can achieve 23 lbs. pull on a 1/2" ball, making it the strongest magnetic circuit available for gravity, metered and/or choke feed applications.

by Cathy Rust “A specifier may order the the cheaper product and create unnecessary waste.”

Sledge Hammer It’s time to tackle construction and demolition waste

I

n 2009 the Canadian Council for the Ministers of the Environment (CCME) developed a waste action plan to tackle our Canadian track record of creating more waste per capita than any other country.

In the first phase of the plan, specific materials were targeted such as electronic waste, lamps containing mercury, automotive products and printed materials and packaging. While some provinces were already considering or had begun to implement stewardship and extended producer responsibility (EPR) programs, addressing waste at the federal level has helped bring all (except one province) on board.

In phase two of the Canada Wide Action Plan, the CCME is addresses textiles and carpet, furniture and commercial and demolition (C&D) waste. It is too early to know whether these materials will be addressed in the same manner—through EPR policies—but they will be addressed in some form. The sooner industry and government can discuss ways of cutting C&D waste, the easier the transition will be to a more resource efficient economy.

The Construction Resources Initiative Council (CRI Council, cricouncil.com) will launch phase two of its program, Mission 2030: The Integration Program, in early 2015. Mission 2030 was launched in 2011 with the aim of eliminating waste to landfill from the C&D industry by 2030. This target is in line with the global movement, Architecture 2030, which aims to build carbon neutral buildings by 2030.

Many of the problems that have prevented waste reduction in the C&D sector have little to do with the reuse or recyclability of the material being thrown away. In fact, StatsCan released a report in 2008 which noted that 75 per cent of material sent to landfill still has valuable life left in it.

Program details The CRI Council’s Integration Program aims to break down barriers preventing significant waste reduction in the C&D sector. Let’s consider three top priorities.

Develop consistent standards to provide accurate measurement.

In order to begin to reduce waste generation, we have to know where we’re starting. Because waste has only come into focus on the federal and provincial agenda in the last few years, consistent standards for measurement have never been developed. It makes it hard to collect accurate data, so governments and companies have difficulty tracking material flow. Waste can be measured in a variety of ways, including by weight, volume, and intensity per square foot. Further, materials on a job site that are sold or given to other businesses such as old metal, and clean fill, aren’t included in diversion calculations.

Create municipal and provincial policies that encourage C&D resource efficiency.

In most Canadian municipalities, tip fees are more attractive than alternatives such as recycling. Even when laws are in place to prevent dumping of recyclable materials, often the government infrastructure

isn’t able to provide sufficient enforcement to prevent it. Finally, recycling facilities may not exist in every municipality where construction occurs, making it difficult to consider alternatives to landfill. It’s imperative that municipal and provincial waste policies change to provide more incentives for more efficient waste management.

Perform integrated waste management reporting. Similar to the Integrated Design Process, an integrated waste management plan can achieve waste objectives more effectively when all project team members are at the table to create the plan. Waste prevention should be a consistent theme throughout the demolition-design-build cycle. Even if a building is designed using efficient materials, unless the rest of the people in the process understand the objectives, the goals may not be met.

Company and government policies can prohibit effective waste management as well. If a company’s internal policy is to purchase the least expensive specified material, but a substitute material is cheaper, it can throw off the entire process and waste minimization goal. For example, if 10-foot-tall drywall is specified but 12-foot is cheaper, a specifier may order the the cheaper product and create unnecessary waste. With every team member at the table when these decisions are made, the entire picture can be viewed more clearly and stated objectives have a better chance of being accomplished.

Diverting all C&D waste from landfill by 2030 seems like a lofty goal, but we know that, in theory, the first 75 per cent shouldn’t be that difficult. (Markets already exist for the material.) The challenge—one that the CRI Council is ready to take on—is to create consistent standards so everyone is measuring the same thing, while training companies to start developing integrated waste management plans. Doing so in the planning stage can save money, material and time and ultimately, resources for future generations.
