Scope

Changes of waste transportation costs at Hämeenkyrö region due to the Hämeenkyrö MSWI.

Definition

Data

We focus on three different scenarios of waste transport at Hämeenkyrö region:

  • 0. Current situation: waste is transported to landfill (Tampere)
  • 1. Future situation 1: waste is transported to MSWI elsewhere
  • 2. Future situation 2: MSWI uses both munisipal solid waste and industrial solid waste and purchases the waste material at the shortest possible distance
  • 3. Future situation 3: MSWI uses only municipal solid waste and purchases the waste material further away

Scenario 0 Assumptions:

  • Pirkanmaan jätehuolto collects the waste at Hämeenkyrö and transports it to landfill at Tampre or at Nokia

Scenario 1 Assumptions:

  • Pirkanmaan jätehuolto collects the waste at Hämeenkyrö and transports it to Tampere: nearest MSWI assumed to be built in Tampere. Tampere is used as an example site with short transport distances. R↻

Scenario 2 Assumptions:

  • MSWI purchases 100 000 tons of municipal solid waste/year from Pirkanmaan jätehuolto,
  • 20000 tons of industrial waste/year from M-real and
  • 80000 tons of industrial waste /year from solid waste treatment plant at Viljakkala
  • waste collection and transportation costs inside the area of Pirkanmaan jätehuotlo do not change significantly if the waste is transported to Hämeenkyrö instead of Tampere and Nokia
  • transportation costs: 0,12-0,23 €/t/km, waste collection costs inside each municipal are not counted, because they assumed to be constant in all scenarios
  • distance between M-real plant and MSWI: 1,5 km
  • distance between Viljakkala and MSWI : 15 km

Uncertainties:

  • this model assumes that waste of M-real plat is transported to MSWI. In reality, that could shorten the existing waste transport route
  • solid waste treatment plant at Viljakkala is not established yet

Scenario 3: Assumptions: Sources of waste:

  • 100 000 tons of municipal solid waste/year from Pirkanmaan jätehuolto,
  • 100 000 tons of municipal solid waste/year from other municipals
  • average transport distance from other municipal centres 109 km
  • long-distance transports made by vehicle of 40 ton capacity
  • transportation costs: 0,12-0,23 €/t/km
  • waste collection costs inside each municipal not counted, because they assumed to be constant in all scenarios: only transportations between municipal centres are counted

Formula

Result

Scenario 0:

  • Waste transport costs do not change in Hämeenkyrö compared to current situation

Scenario 1:

  • Waste transport costs do not change in Hämeenkyrö compared to current situation

Scenario 2

  • Assumed that the total municipal solid waste transportation cost does not change inside the region of Pirkanmaa jätehuolto, additional cost of waste transportation would be 0,1-0,3 milj. €/year
  • Number of waste transport vehicles will increase by 61/day (by 122/d to both directions)

Scenario 3

  • Additional cost of waste transportation would be 1,2-2,4 milj. €/year
  • Number of waste transport vehicles will increase by 53/day (by 106/d to both directions)
