SMART WASTE PORTUGAL ASSOCIATION

Smart Waste Portugal - Business Development Network (SWP) is a non profit private Association, created in 2015, whose mission is to create a national platform, involving all players in the sector, promoting and valuing waste as an economic and social resource, creating conditions to the competitive acting across the value chain through a collaborative approach, promoting innovation, research, development and implementation solutions.

SWP Association intends to join the movement to boost Portugal competitiveness, based on a circular economy, by identifying and contributing to create new business and innovation opportunities as well as new business models and more efficient production and consumption forms.

FRAMEWORK

CONTEXT AND GLOBAL CHALLENGES:

Population trends: in 2011 we are almost 7 billion and the population is projected to grow to 9 billion by 2050.

Resources scarcity: some 65 billion tonnes of raw materials were extracted and entered the economic system in 2010, and this figure is expected to grow to about 82 billion tonnes in 2020. At this rhythm in 2050 it is necessary 3 planets.

Natural resources high prices and volatility.

Environmental problems (climate, water, loss of biodiversity…).

Waste Production: In Europe, 2.7 billion tonnes of waste was generated in 2010, but only about 40% of that was reused, recycled, or composted and digested. Note: Only around one-third of the 60 metals it studied showed a global end-of-life recycling rate of 25% or more.

PLASTICS IN THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY

TARGETS:

The EU Strategy for Plastics in the Circular Economy, Portugal should achieve, by 2030, the following:- All plastics packaging placed in the Portuguese market is either reusable or can be recycledin a cost-effective manner.- According to the National Strategic Plan for Urban Waste, by 2020 Portugal should prepare for recycling 50% in volume of the total urban waste. The EU establish that by 2025, the rate of plastic recycling should be 55%.- Considering the Proposal of EU Directive on Single Use Plastics, until 2025 the problematic and unnecessary single-use-plastics will be either banned or restrained for EU Markets (Portugal included).

PLASTICS IN THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY

Plastics family is composed of a great variety of materials designed to meet the very diferente needsof thousands of end products (thermoplastics and thermosets);

Plastics are organic materials that can be either fóssil fuel based or bio based. Curretly, most plasticsmaterials are derived from fóssil fedstocks. But only 4 to 6% of all oil and gas used in Europe isemployed in the production of plastic materials;

World production of plastic materials in 2016: 280 million tonnes (29% China (50% ASIA) > Europe (19%) > NAFTA (18%));

In its end of life, plastics (thermoplastics) have the capability of being fully recycled. Although they are not biodegradable in the environment and they can originate microplastics;

In Europe, plastics industry represents 1.5 million jobs and a turnover of 350 billion euros, being one of the main industrial sectors in the continent.

SMART WASTE PORTUGAL ASSOCIATION – INITIATIVES

Context: To promote the reuse and valorization of plastic materials, as well as the incorporation ofrecycled plastics into new products, in a perspective of circular economy.

Objetives:1. Study solutions that can be applied in the national territory for a new economy of plastics; 2. Promote and develop alternatives to single-use plastics; 3. Prepare a list of recommendations to the industrial sector, the scientific community and the

government to contribute to the previous objectives; 4. Prepare a National Pact on Plastics.

SMART WASTE PORTUGAL ASSOCIATION – INITIATIVES

TARGETS:Commit to a set of ambitious 2025 targets:- Eliminate the plastic items we don’t

need;- Innovate so all plastics we do need aredesigned to be safely reused, recycled, or composted; and - Circulate everything we use to keep it in the economy and out of the environment.

The Global Commitment draws a line in the sand in the fight against plastic waste and pollution. Uniting over 250 businesses, governments, and other organisations from around the world behind a common vision and a set of 2025 targets to address the problem at its source. These include companies representing 20% of all plastic packaging produced globally, some of which are well-known consumer businesses such as Danone; H&M group; L’Oréal; Mars, Incorporated; PepsiCo; The Coca-Cola Company; and Unilever; major packaging producers such as Amcor, plastics producers including Novamont, and resource management specialist Veolia.

It is led by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation in collaboration with UN Environment.
