14. Conclusion
Waste management - Least Developed
Countries (LDCs) – Composting
• LDC’s : around 40% waste collection
• Role of municipalities but little financial resources
• Importance of informal sector
• Average 70% organic matter
 compost : holistic approach
• Reduces residual volumes to landfill
• Reduces polution risks
• Reduces GHG emissions
• Creates jobs (notably for waste pickers)
• Favours sustainable agriculture and adaptation to climate
change

Composting and GHG emissions

4
Emission reductions calculation
according to UNFCCC methodology
• Project emissions :
Compost
PEy = PEy,power + PEy,comp +
PEy,runoff + PEy,res waste
5
ER = BE - PE
CDM method analysis
• Ten years calculation
• Climat : rain > 1000mm/year. T° : >20°C
• Calculation data:
– Local values (climate)
– Monitored values (SWDS management – waste quantity)
– Default values (decay rate – fraction of DOC)

Conservativness of

Main recent methodological
evolutions (1)
• Global uncertainty factor : from 10% to 20%
• Nitrous oxide emissions in project emissions but not
in baseline
• Monitoring CH4 and N2O very complicated – default
values very high

Difficult investment
15
Drawbacks but not advantages
• Methane and nitrous
oxide emissions
• Leachates from
composting
• Emission from
anaerobic storage
• Social impact ?
– Job creation
– informal workers (re)
insertion
• Climate change ?
– Agronomic parameters ?
– Soil parameters ?
• Longer life for landfills
• Less costs for
municipalities
16
What we’d like to propose
Life cycle analysis
• CERF (compost emissions reduction factor) =
Csb + (Wb + Eb +Fb +Hb)*C -Te + Pe + Fe
With
• CSb = Emission reductions associated with the increased carbon storage in soil
(MTCO2E/ton of feedstock)
• Wb = Emission reductions due to decreased water use (MTCO2E/ton of compost)
• Eb = Emission reduction associated with decreased soil erosion (MTCO2E/ton of
compost)
• Fb = Factor to account for the reduced fertilizer use (MTCO2E/ton of compost)
• Hb = Factor to account for the reduced herbicide use (MTCO2E/ton of compost)
• C = Conversion factor used to convert from tons of compost to tons of feedstock
• Te = Transportation emissions from composting (MTCO2E/ton of feedstock)
• Pe = Process emissions from composting (MTCO2E/ton of feedstock)
• Fe = Fugitive emissions from composting (MTCO2E/ton of feedstock)
Developed by Cal EPA
17
What we’d like to propose
Social impacts
• Job creation
• informal workers (re) insertion
some standards already take them into
consideration
18
Conclusion
Combine solid waste disposal site emissions
(according UNFCCC methodology) and
agricultural use of compost emissions reduction
(LCA) for a better approach.
 Take in consideration social impacts
• No matter carbon finance, selling compost is
essential for financial sustainability and is also
a challenge in itself.
