2023 Pingtung County Biomass and Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) Resource Recycling Project

Absrtact
This project aims to promote the resource recycling of biomass and solid recovered fuel (SRF) in Pingtung County for the year 2023. The project encompasses three main components: "Constructing a Regional Biomass Resource Recycling Mechanism," "Executing Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) Verification and Quality Control Work," and "Other Cooperation Work Matters." Commencing from the bid award date, assistance in executing relevant tasks has been provided. As of November 30, 2023, the implementation status of this project is as follows: 1.Construction of a regional biomass resource recycling mechanism: This project assists the Environmental Protection Bureau in conducting surveys and analyzing the sources of discarded biomass. As of November 30, 2023, a total of 619 survey questionnaires had been completed, encompassing 262 manufacturing and sales units as well as 357 businesses in the food and feed manufacturing industry. The completion rate is 95.23%. For the 125 units that have provided information on production volume and disposal methods, the annual production of discarded biomass is estimated to be approximately 26,646.96 metric tons. Among these, feed or feedstock constitutes the primary disposal pathway, accounting for 60.62%. For the remaining source units, further scheduling for on-site confirmation surveys of discarded biomass situations will continue. In June, guidance operations for the recycling of biomass resources were planned for the designated locations, Tung Sugar Energy Service Co., Ltd. and Prosperity Plant of Heng Yee enterprise Co., Ltd. On November 9, 112, experts and scholars were invited to conduct the guidance operations. In an effort to advance the demonstration of biomass waste recycling facilities and showcase a circular economy model, a site visit was conducted on June 5 to gain insights. Following this understanding, a visit to Tung Sugar Energy Service Co., Ltd. has been scheduled for November 30. The visit will specifically focus on the types of biomass waste received, facilities with a comprehensive and scalable production process, and those with planned methods for the circular utilization of by-products such as digestate and biogas slurry. The initial session of the Biomass Recycling Promotion Seminar was set to take place on June 20. Representatives from agricultural, forestry, fishery, animal husbandry, product processing, and recycling organizations within Pingtung County had been invited to attend. The second session of the seminar will be coordinated with the Environmental Protection Bureau's booth during the Volunteer Service Day on November 4 for additional outreach and promotion activities. In pursuit of establishing a comprehensive cycle for sourcing, processing, and recycling organic waste in Pingtung County, this project initiated its efforts with the Biomass Recycling Promotion Seminar held on June 20. The seminar aimed to bring together source units and reuse organizations, providing a platform for waste biomass generators to understand potential recipients for their discarded biomass. Following this, monthly surveys were consistently conducted to facilitate waste source matching. On November 30, a visit to Tung Sugar Energy Service Co., Ltd. was arranged, inviting source units to attend and foster collaboration in waste reception. In total, four companies successfully matched and received waste generated within the jurisdiction this year, contributing to its effective recycling and reuse. 2.Execution of Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) verification and quality control operations As of November 30, 2023, an investigation was conducted on the types and quantities of waste generated within the jurisdiction that could be utilized as raw materials for Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF). Among the business waste produced, which includes waste already delivered for disposal, there are a total of 17 categories of waste suitable for SRF raw materials, amounting to approximately 52,137.32 metric tons. However, upon analysis, only 158.29 metric tons have been confirmed as delivered to SRF manufacturing plants within Pingtung County for the production of SRF products. In addition, a regular audit is conducted every two months for the six established Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) manufacturing plants. This audit aims to verify the SRF manufacturing procedures and the flow of waste sources. Continuous guidance is provided to address any identified abnormalities or deficiencies in the manufacturing and waste sourcing processes. Between August 21 and September 1, the project executed sampling and verification procedures for the SRF products from four established SRF manufacturing plants. After a thorough analysis of the testing reports, it was determined that the SRF products from these four manufacturers fully comply with the quality standards outlined in the "Solid Recovered Fuel Quality Standards." In efforts to ensure the regulatory compliance of Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) manufacturing plants, an on-site audit was conducted on October 19. Two experts were invited to perform the audit, specifically at HSING LUNG TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. and Jheng syu Co., Ltd. In order to promote a comprehensive understanding of resource recycling industries, a practical exchange seminar focusing on Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) resource cycling was conducted on October 20 and 21. The program included visits to outstanding SRF manufacturing plants and user facilities across various counties and cities in the central region. The initial session of the Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) Manufacturing and Usage Promotion Seminar took place on June 20. Representatives from businesses involved in SRF raw material production, manufacturing plants, and other organizations related to reuse were invited to participate, focusing on entities within Pingtung County. The second session was aligned with the Environmental Protection Bureau's booth during the Volunteer Service Day on November 5, facilitating outreach and promotional activities. 3.Other Cooperative Tasks Continuing to assist the Environmental Protection Bureau in implementing planned activities and schedules to meet the objectives outlined in the "2023 Environmental Protection Performance Assessment Program for Municipalities and Counties (Cities)." Additionally, as of November 30, we have collaborated on three assigned tasks.
