Sound understanding of ODS banks should be the

basis for any action and policy decisions

Assess the general need for action in the field of ODS bank

management

Assess the potential environmental benefits to the ozone layer and the

climate

Decide whether to export ODS or to find a local destruction solution

Design optimal capacities for destruction technology in case of local

destruction options

Assess long-term availability of ODS to guarantee economic viability of

a destruction plant

Design appropriate policy measures

Exemplary vision (IEA 2010) for CO2 emissions

Colombian vision for domestic refrigeration

• First phase 300,000 units (65 t CFC-11, 34 t CFC-12, 1,228 t PU foam)

• Voluntary target form RED VERDE: processing 26,259 refrigerators in the first

year of operation in the city of Bogotá DC.

When defining the vision and priority for ODS bank

management ….

Keep in mind

Available banks and waste streams

Technical feasibility (focus on low and medium effort)

Refrigerants will be released more quickly from banks than blowing agents

When considering blowing agents in foam, focus on the appliance sector

Keeping in mind the technical feasibility when drafting vision

Collection systems


Financing mechanism

• EPR scheme (appliance sector) as part of WEEE regulation

• Tax on ODS /HFC

• MLF / International funding agents

• Voluntary carbon market

• Direct and indirect incentives

Creating suitable incentives

• Direct incentives

• Replacement programme `new for old` with incentive for end-user (e.g. NAMA

domestic refrigeration)

• Discount for recycled /reclaimed ODS, when recovered ODS is delivered

• Discount for recovery equipment of technicians

• Tax-rebate system (e.g. Denmark with HFC)

• Incentives for informal sector

• Reduced energy costs (e.g. utilities)

• Indirect incentives

• Tax abatement when destruction technology is imported

• Tax abatement when natural refrigerants are imported

• etc.

Collection systems


Collection systems

• Collection system for ODS (refrigerants), possible supported by incentives (tax

rebate) for returned ODS

• Collection system for ODS containing equipment: more complicated, EPR scheme

under WEEE regulation

Guidelines

Establishing a collection system

• Analyse existing policy framework (see preparation step)

• Review essential policy measures (see policy guide)

• Identify national focus (gap analysis)

Analyse (WEEE) policy framework

• Develop appropriate steering structure, including responsible government entity e.g.

• orientation committee (various ministries)

• Technical advisory group

• Thematic working groups

Develop steering structure for WEEE

• Launch of WEEE regulation

• Clarification of deadlines /milestones

• Stakeholder consultation and Strategy development

• Responsibilities must be clarified

• Development of sector plan / sector agreement

Launch of WEEE regulation

and sector study

• Service technicians

• Stakeholder involved in collection, transport and storage of ODS and WEEE

• End-user

Capacity Building & Awareness

• Discuss and create appropriate incentives Incentives

Regulation, Enforcement

Development of sector plan: Example from Brazil

Discussion of final agreement

Sector study should answer ….

• Waste stream /ODS stream (inventory)

• How do existing and future policies and regulations address the different players?

• Existing take back system / ODS handling structure?

• Technology for environmentally sound ODS handling and processing available ?

• Cost implication of collection system for each of the involved players?

• Cost allocated to different stakeholders?

• Barriers and how to overcome these?

• Co-benefits

• Etc.

Collection systems


After collection: recycling – reclaim – destruction

• Recovery: Removing refrigerant in any condition from a system and storage in an

external container

• Recycling: Reduction of contamination in used refrigerants with the aim of the

subsequent reutilisation of the refrigerant

• Reclamation: Processing recovered refrigerants to new product specifications (in

Germany DIN standard 8960, AHRI Standard 700-2012) and verifying by analysis

of the refrigerant that new product specifications have been met

• Destruction (cracking plant): Special destruction facilities where raw materials

(HCl and HF) can be recovered for recycling purposes

• Destruction: Final destruction without recovery of raw materials

WEEE regulation / EPR scheme

• Applicable to appliance sector

• Residential and commercial air conditioning equipment

• Small chiller

• Domestic refrigerators

• Stand-alone units in commercial/industrial refrigeration

• Positive:

• Can be self-financing

• Comprehensive and sustainable way for long-term management of e-waste

• Mechanism to transfer market to more environmentally friendly products

• Negative:

• Complex development with Involvement of many stakeholders from different backgrounds

• Infrastructure and supporting measures need to be in place or to be established

• Example: WEEE directive 2012/19/EU in the EU, effective from 2014, enforcement suboptimal

Voluntary Carbon market

Positive

• Income generated through carbon credits

could be used to finance collection

activities

Negative

• Only country to offer this at the

moment: USA (non-Basel country)

• Value of carbon credits lower than

cost of destruction

• High amount of seed money

necessary

• No net CO2 emission reduction

Destruction – Local cement kiln versus export for destruction

Local destruction cement kiln (US$/kg)

Export for destruction(US$/kg)

Investment Operating costs Transport Destruction

23,000 – 130,000 3.5 – 6 6 – 8 3 – 7

Based on MLF destruction proposals

• Rule of the thumb: Export for destruction is cheaper for amounts of < 10 t

• Attention: Scale effect

• Local assessment is necessary

Best practice: Refund system in Denmark

• Tax on HFC depending on GWP

incentive for use of low GWP refrigerants

• Handling fee collected at point of sale

• Fee partly refundable if HFC is returned, depending on quality of

returned refrigerant

• more refund for refrigerant that can be reclaimed, less refund for

refrigerant that can only be destroyed

incentive for responsible handling

Best practice: ODS destuction in Indonesia

• Holcim‘s Narogong cement kiln was adapted with Japanese support

• Running since 2007

• Emissions below TEAP limits
