Feasibility Study for the Appropriate Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Technology

covering 178 Local Government Units (LGUs) in the Manila Bay Region

Terms of Reference (TOR)

for the

Conduct of the Feasibility Study (F/S) for the Appropriate Waste-to-Energy (WTE)

Technology covering 178 Local Government Units (LGUs) in the Manila Bay Region

1. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE

1.1 Contracting Authority

The 2014 General Appropriations Act (GAA) has allocated the amount of

PhP400,000,000.00 for the conduct of F/S for non-public-private partnership

projects in the pipeline to be administered by the National Economic and

Development Authority (NEDA). NEDA shall be the Executing Agency and

contracting party while DENR-EMB shall be the Implementing Agency. The

proposed project is consistent with DENR-EMB’s major plans and programs,

particularly in formulating/developing strategic policies for better solid waste

management and in assisting LGUs in the availment/use of alternative

technologies for waste disposals.

1.2 Relevant Country / Sector Context

To improve the management of solid wastes in the country, Republic Act (RA)

No. 9003, otherwise known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act

(ESWMA)1, was enacted. However, despite the enactment of the Law, 923 open

and controlled dumpsites are still operating nationwide. The dumpsites, which are

generally classified as unmanaged or poorly managed, should have already been

closed and/or rehabilitated. At present, only 72 sanitary landfills (SLFs) are in

operation, serving 137 LGUs nationwide. This number is relatively small

compared to the more than 1,600 cities and municipalities in the Philippines. Due

to the high upfront costs for the development of Solid Waste Management (SWM)

facilities, which limit the capacity of LGUs in investing in such projects, there is a

need for the National Government (NG) to start-up the implementation of SWM

approaches towards increasing the service coverage of SWM facilities to more

LGUs.

The condition of the Manila Bay has worsened over the years due to the increasing

pollution load carried by rivers draining into the Bay, exacerbated by the

mismanagement of solid wastes. This has prompted the Supreme Court, through its

18 December 2008 decision, to issue a mandamus ordering relevant government

agencies, in coordination with the concerned LGUs surrounding the Manila Bay, to

clean up, rehabilitate and preserve the Bay. Furthermore, DENR, as the primary

government agency mandated to conserve, manage and develop the country’s

Institutional Mechanisms and Incentives, Declaring Certain Acts Prohibited and Providing Penalties,

Appropriating Funds Therefor, and for Other Purposes, 26 January 2001,

Feasibility Study for the Appropriate Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Technology

covering 178 Local Government Units (LGUs) in the Manila Bay Region

environment and natural resources2, was directed to fully implement its

Operational Plan for the Manila Bay Coastal Strategy as well as to spearhead the

implementation of activities/interventions related to the cleanup, rehabilitation and

protection of the Manila Bay area.

With the need to study appropriate SWM measures and in compliance with the

continuing mandamus, DENR intends to immediately pursue SWM interventions

in the Manila Bay region to improve its water quality and condition and to ensure a

renewable and sustainable means of addressing the SWM problems in the region.

Since methane (a by-product of SLFs) has high potential to be converted into

energy, provided that its percentage in the landfill gas is enough to be processed by

power generators, DENR is exploring the possibility of adopting certain WTE

technologies as solutions to the SWM issue. However, past case studies show that

the WTE potential for new SLFs are limited by RA 9003 since the Act encourages

the diversion of biodegradable wastes from disposal facilities. As such, there is a

need to undertake a comprehensive study on the exploration of WTE solutions for

SWM problems in the country taking into consideration institutional, legal and

technical limits.

1.3 Current State of the Relevant Sector

Despite the effectivity of RA 9003 since 2001, the LGUs’ compliance with the

mandates of the Law is still very low. Moreso, finding suitable disposal sites for

SWM could be a challenge especially in highly urbanized cities (HUCs) and/or

urbanizing cities. LGU interventions, such as Materials Recovery Facilities

(MRFs), source reduction, and the likes, have already been implemented; however,

majority of the established MRFs, with composting and recycling components, are

in an “On and Off” operation. There is actually no continuity in the efforts initiated

by some LGUs, except perhaps those implemented by some non-government and

private entities. Based on the National Solid Waste Management Commission

(NSWMC) database, about 9,219 out of 42,000 barangays today have access to

MRFs in the country. For the LGUs in Metro Manila, an average of 42.0%

diversion rate has been achieved through source reduction, composting and

recycling while the rest of the LGUs in the country only reported a 36.9% average

diversion rate. This limitation has been a deterrent factor to the participation of

recycling industries, whose businesses rely on the steady supply of usable waste

materials.

The pressing concern on the increasing volume of wastes produced, its undeniable

impact on climate change, and the relatively unsustainable SWM interventions

among LGUs are some of the reasons why the Government should push for the

adoption of the appropriate WTE technologies to complement SLFs in the country.

WTE technologies will convert wastes into a genuine resource-generating and

sustainable renewable energy with minimal residues brought to SLFs, thus,

extending the latter’s life spans and minimizing land requirements for such.

2 Pursuant to Section 4 of Executive Order (EO) No. 192 (1987), which provides for the reorganization of

DENR, and Section 19 of RA 9275, otherwise known as the Clean Water Act of 2004, which delegates the

DENR as lead agency in the implementation and enforcement of a Comprehensive Water Quality

Management.

covering 178 Local Government Units (LGUs) in the Manila Bay Region

1.4 Related Projects/Programs and Other Donor Activities

The following projects may complement the proposed F/S under this TOR:

1.4.1 Solid Waste Management Sector Project (SWMSP). The project, which

is now on its preparatory stage, aims to support SWM in the Philippines

by assisting LGUs through investments in related infrastructures,

complemented with technical assistance for capacity development. The

Project covers three (3) pilot LGUs to showcase appropriate models for

SWM in highly urbanized regions, tourist destination areas and cluster of

municipalities. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) loan, however, is

not specifically intended for the determination of WTE approaches but

more on opening a finance window for the waste sector in general; and

1.4.2 Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMA) Support Project.

The goal of the NAMA Support Project, which is a pipeline project of

NSWMC in partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für

Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, is for the waste sector to

contribute to the Philippines’ transition towards a low carbon

development path as enshrined in the “Mitigation Pillar” of the National

Framework Strategy on Climate Change (NFSCC) and anchored on

strategies that offer the most co-benefits to stimulate sustainable

development. The collaboration focuses on opening a concessional

finance window for all LGUs and private entities that intend to

implement waste management projects with established and verifiable

greenhouse gases (GHG) mitigation impacts. While WTE projects could

be considered under NAMA, only certain WTE schemes could be pilot-

tested under the same, such as, inter alia, anaerobic digestion or

methane-to-electricity schemes.

2. OBJECTIVE, PURPOSE & EXPECTED RESULTS

2.1 Overall Objective of the Study

2.1.1 To provide a comprehensive basis for the establishment, development,

promotion, implementation and monitoring of WTE technologies

appropriate for the Manila Bay region, taking into consideration the

technical, financial, socio-political, legal and institutional factors. This

also includes the adoption of appropriate WTE technologies based on its

contribution in achieving the waste diversion goal as indicated in the

2011-2016 Philippine Development Plan (PDP), with the value-added

process of energy generation;

The results of the proposed F/S should serve as a catalyst for the public

sector to implement SWM in a holistic, economical and efficient manner.

The Study should be able to determine the most appropriate WTE

technologies for the Philippines, and in particular, the LGUs in the Manila

Bay area, that would help reduce the amount of residual waste delivered to

existing landfills. It shall serve as a test case to achieve an improved
