2 Access to Technology and Know-how on Cleaner Production in Central Europe A CENTRAL EUROPE project ( )

3 Ausgangspunkt für das Projekte Hauptakteure im Mittelpunkt von Umweltinnovationen sind Unternehmen Sie sollen bei einem nicht eigendynamischen Markt innovative Techniken entwickeln und umsetzen!! Treiber: Staat: Muss Politik entwickeln um Innovationen in diesen Markt zu bringen Wie kann der Staat es managen, dass sich in diesem Sektor Produktlinien (supply chains) entwickeln? Wie macht es die EU, wie machen wir es und wie machen es die Partnerländer des Projekts? Mit welchen Konzepten, Regelungen und Instrumenten sind die besten Erfolge erzielt worden? In unserem Fall dokumentiert mit Beispielen aus den Partnerländern?

4 Welche Bedürfnisse haben die Unternehmen? Wie werden diese von den beteiligten Akteuren aufgegriffen? Was läuft gut (Treiber/Anreize)? Was läuft schlecht? Wie kann man diese beheben? Barrieren/Hemmnisse) Wie kann man grenzüberschreitend (in Regionen) (Transnational) eine Stärkung der Entwicklung (Innovation) und Anwendung von Umweltschutz in den Betrieben erreichen? Welche Vorschläge lassen sich für die Projektregionen ableiten?

5 The Act Clean network supporting tools: Country reports on SME needs, barriers, incentives Direct support from an Act Clean National Contact Point, which can directly connect you with over 200 outstanding institutions in the field of Cleaner Production throughout Central Europe. Matchmaking events focusing on your specific needs and giving you access to best solutions from Germany, Austria, Poland, Italy, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovenia and Slovakia.

6 Knowledge sharing via the Act Clean Database on over 1000 examples of best available technologies, management systems and support tools for eco-efficiency. Knowledge sharing about existing Tools to support SMEs (Toolbox). Act Clean Transnational Newsletter (Biowaste, Decentralized wastewater treatment, Ecoinnovation tools)

7 Bedarfsanalyse/Anreize/Hemmnisse in den Partnerländern Erste Handlungsempfehlungen Ausführliche Diskussion Zusammenarbeit bei spezifischen Projektaktivitäten - Veranstaltungen in Deutschland und in den Partnerländern - Transnationale Projektnewsletter - Best Practice Beispielen und Tools - Sonstige Aspekte/Weiteres Vorgehen

9 Keywords of the Final Conference! Driving Ressource Efficiency (Policies, programms) Support Structures and Instruments Knowledge Transfer Financing and Investing Environmental Technology Connecting Demand and Supply Driving forces and Barriers Not only one solution! Different Options and Innovation Paths

10 Resource Efficiency: Cleaner Production vs. End-of-Pipe - increases the Resource Efficiency in the production - reduces the input of resources, the need for end-of-pipe-technology and the mass of waste process optimisation + use of innovative and future-oriented technologies

11 Albert Einstein Example isn`t another way to teach, it is the only way to teach

12 Case History: Surface Cleaning : Innovation paths/driving force/barriers Problem: Emission of Chlorinated Hydrocarbons (CHC)/CHC-Waste 1990 CHC-Ordinance - Driver (Regulation): 95% emission reduction/technical regulation/reduce CHCconcentration befor opening the cleaning machine/a sensor did not open befor (Driving force to develop new sensors): - Driver (Public Support) UBA support a Zero-Emission-Machine (Condensation/Charcoal-Filter) to demonstrate the technique. - But the realization is expensive (Driver for Innovation) 3 Solutions available: (regulate targets not techniques) Solution 1: CHC-Technology Solution2: Water Technology Solution3: Hydrocarbon Technology

13 Solution1: CHC-Technology - Driver: Deadline 1994 Barrier: bad execution: 50% - Recycling rate only 50% (Barrier: Angry about the recycling quality; Driver: Public support concerning information and practical examples)) - Driver: Combining and reduction of machines (Example: 40% was not necety): personal reduction; combining different cleaning steps (rationalization)

14 Solution 2: Water Technology - Driver: possible a future CHC-ban (sustainability) - Driver: new CHC facility very expensive: looking for new solutions - Driver: Increasing product quality/anti corrosion chemicals - Barrier: CHC-Cleaning is everywhere possible. Now work for specific solutions/tests/construction of new machines/complex material flows/technical problems with drying (energy/time) - Barrier: Water treatment (limit values)/to pay for polluted water - Barrier: approval procedere/länder /Driver: Federal approval procedere

15 Solution 3: HC-Technology - Barrier: expensive/explosion Protection/ new vacuum drying techniques Not only one solution!!!!!! Why we need to clean the tools? Production Chain Innovation - Reduction of cooling lubricants or no more cooling lubricants/dry technologies - New Cleaning Technologies (Sonic-Systems, Plasma ) Result: Highly Ressource Effecient

16 Painting-Facilities (car-painting) Problem: Lacqer-Waste (overspray) Problem: Emission of VOC Main Driver: 20 mg/m³ VOC emission limit value Innovation 1: Catalytic Afterburner Driver : very expensiv catalytic afterburner/big air volumes Innovation 2: Water based lacqer Driver : water and waste problems, product quality after recycling Innovation 3: Powder lacqer Near Zero Emission Techniques - Driver: 100% Ressource Efficient
