Industrial Symbiosis Programmes in South Africa National Cleaner Production Centre Conference on Industrial Efficiency 21 – 22 July 2015, Durban, South Africa Presenters: Henry Nuwarinda, National Cleaner Production Centre Lauren Basson, The Green. Cape Sector Development Agency

What is Industrial Symbiosis? In biology: ‘An interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association to the advantage of both’ Concise Oxford Dictionary, 8 th Edition

Industrial Symbiosis Programmes (ISPs) in a nutshell… The Industrial Symbiosis Programmes are free services in Gauteng, KZN and the Western Cape that connect companies so that they can identify and realise the business opportunities enabled by using unused or residual resources (materials, energy, water, assets, logistics, expertise) Connecting Industry – Creating Opportunity

How Does Industrial Symbiosis Contribute to Resource Efficiency & Vision Zero Waste Conarc, Corex Slag and Conarc dust Foundry Road construction aggregate Quartz and Stone Flooring Slag Pile Granite, brick and masonry

Wood Example A WOOD PALLET EXAMPLE Without Industrial Symbiosis: Company 1 Old wooden pallets Company 2 Broken wooden pallets Company 3 Wood offcuts Landfill

Wood Example (cont. ) Using industrial symbiosis: Company 1 Old wooden pallets Landfill Company 2 Broken wooden pallets Company 3 Wood offcuts Wood Processor

Retial Example Organic waste, FOGs and dirty recyclables Landfill Retailers Vermicomposting Biodiesel production Post consumer recycling Biogas production

Benefits of IS What Industrial Symbiosis Achieves? IS Reduces Profit Sales Jobs New business Utilisation of assets Inward investment Knowledge transfer Innovation IS Increases CO 2 emissions Landfill costs Use of virgin resources Industrial water usage Hazardous waste Pollution Transport Risks Costs

The Western Cape Industrial Symbiosis Programme Strategy Year 1 and 2 Year 3 • Important to show that IS delivers in the South African context • Build the evidence base for the establishment of other ISPs in South Africa • Deliverables focused on reach rather than impact – businesses assisted • Work with the willing and enthisiastic • Focus on quick wins • Becoming increasingly important to show that IS delivers specifically against economic development indicators: • Investment • Additional revenue • Cost savings • Job creation – direct, indirect and induced Ø Majority of synergies completed involved wood and dry recyclable resources Ø New strategy Ø Drive value-add and scale synergies (e. g. C&D waste) Ø IS as an enabler or regional development (Atlantis Industria) | 22
