This document proposes a 3 part waste management solution: 1) A smart city that collects organic waste and sends it to a biogas plant while recycling inorganic waste. 2) A large-scale biogas plant that converts organic waste into biogas using microorganisms. 3) An electricity generator that uses the biogas to generate electricity which can power the smart city and be added to the energy grid. The biogas plant also produces nutrient-rich fertilizer from the waste residues.
Here are the main types of hazardous materials:
- Chemicals - This includes industrial chemicals, cleaning products, pesticides, and other substances used in manufacturing, agriculture, healthcare, and other industries. Many of these have toxic, flammable, corrosive or reactive properties.

1) A project is a temporary organization created to deliver one or more business products according to an agreed business case.
2) Projects are different from operations in that they are one-time activities that are not repetitive and bring about change through new products.
3) A project management method like PRINCE2 provides an organized way to manage key variables like scope, time, cost, quality, risk, and benefits to avoid failures and improve success rates of projects.
Solid waste disposal methods were presented. Solid waste is defined as useless and unwanted solid products from human activities. There are eight main sources of solid waste including municipal, industrial, and medical wastes. Sewage consists of wastewater from homes and businesses. Common solid waste disposal methods presented included sanitary landfills, incineration, and composting. Sanitary landfills involve burying waste in trenches where microorganisms break it down over time. Incineration reduces waste volumes but has high costs. Composting separates organic waste which can be used as fertilizer.

This document discusses sustainable sanitation in Central and Eastern Europe. It provides an overview of the Sustainable Sanitation Task Force (TF), which aims to increase knowledge of sanitation planning and technologies. It notes that 30% of the population lives in settlements with less than 2,000 people, but only 9% are connected to wastewater treatment plants. This causes pollution of surface and groundwater.
The TF has produced literature on sustainable sanitation and conducted studies on current practices. It proposes a project to increase awareness, overcome barriers, and demonstrate sustainable solutions through workshops, guidebook translations, and pilot projects showcasing natural wastewater treatment technologies. The project aims to improve sanitation planning and policies to better protect
The Interreg Baltic Sea Region Programme 2014-2020 provides new funding opportunities for transnational cooperation projects around the Baltic Sea. It has a total budget of EUR 278.8 million from the European Regional Development Fund, European Neighbourhood Instrument, and Norway. Projects can receive up to 75% co-financing and typically range from EUR 300,000 to 5 million. The program seeks to make the region more innovative, accessible, and sustainable through four thematic priorities: innovation, natural resources, transport, and support for the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region. The first call for project proposals was launched in December 2014.

This document summarizes a project implemented by the National Cleaner Production Centre South Africa (NCPC-SA) in partnership with UNEP and Stellenbosch University. The project aimed to promote eco-innovation among small and medium enterprises in the metals fabrication sector in South Africa. Over 2015-2017, NCPC-SA worked with 5 companies, providing workshops and company visits to introduce eco-innovation approaches. Initial findings showed that companies found the process complicated and had concerns about costs and benefits. The project helped companies access new markets while improving environmental performance and productivity.

Russia_Business opportunities, presentation by Alexey Zak at Navigate fair 2018Business Finland
The document summarizes business opportunities in the Russian shipbuilding industry for Finnish companies. It notes that Russia plans to build over 1000 new vessels through 2035 across various sectors like fishing, offshore oil/gas, and transport. Major state-owned companies like Rosneft and Novatek are investing heavily in new shipyards and orders. While sanctions create challenges, opportunities remain for Finnish design, shipbuilding, equipment/components where localization can be 30-80%. The document outlines several marine industry events in Russia supported by Business Finland and introduces a consulting group that can help Finnish companies explore opportunities in the Russian market.
Innovative Finnish bioproduct and techology companies have expertise in fiber based products, organic formulations for health care and cosmetics, and the circular economy. Finland continues to invest heavily in bioeconomy research and development.
The Canadian marine industry generated over $3.1 billion in sales and employed 11,100 people in 2014. Over half of domestic sales are related to the Canadian federal government. Key opportunities for the industry include shipbuilding contracts under the National Shipbuilding Strategy, which will see Irving Shipbuilding, Seaspan, and Davie build new ships for the Coast Guard and Navy over the next decades. The aging Canadian Coast Guard fleet also provides opportunities for ship replacements. With over 55 million ferry passengers annually, the Canadian ferry sector additionally offers opportunities as older ferries are due for replacement in the 2020s.

The document summarizes key figures and trends in the Russian shipbuilding industry. It notes that in 2016 there were 66 vessels under construction and 40 delivered to customers in Russia. The United Shipbuilding Corporation's estimated turnover in 2017 was between 4.6-4.9 billion euros. Major projects driving growth include building a new fishing fleet, construction of icebreakers, and the Arctic LNG-2 project led by Novatek which will require around 15 new VLCC tankers. The new Zvezda shipyard controlled by Rosneft aims to build over 130 vessels by 2035. Protectionism is growing in the Russian shipbuilding industry and state-owned companies are playing a larger role through consolidation.

Norway_Shipbuilding Market Update, seminar 10.5.2017Business Finland
This document provides an update on the Norwegian shipbuilding market. It notes that Norway is a world leader in offshore oil and gas, exporting large quantities of oil and gas. A major new oil field, Johan Sverdrup, is projected to generate substantial tax and economic benefits for Norway over 50 years. The maritime sector saw few new supply vessel orders in 2016 but over 140 other vessel orders, including contracts for offshore service and wind vessels. Norwegian shipyards continue to diversify and have secured various ferry, cruise, and specialized vessel contracts. The outlook for the Norwegian maritime industry in 2017 and beyond remains positive.
Russia_Business opportunities in Russia_seminar 10.5.2017Business Finland
Russia presents several key business opportunities in shipbuilding despite sanctions. These include the Arctic LNG-2 project in Murmansk, which has a $10 billion budget and will create thousands of jobs. Russia is also building a new fleet of 65 ice-class vessels by 2019 at shipyards like Vyborg and Admiralty. The country needs new fishing vessels and river ships as well, presenting opportunities for foreign partners to supply components and technologies to Russian shipbuilders. Finland can explore partnerships through industry events in Russia during 2017.
Vietnam has a growing shipbuilding industry concentrated in several major shipyards. The industry produces a variety of vessels including cargo ships, tankers, offshore support vessels, and patrol boats. While most shipyards currently build smaller vessels, the largest yards can produce ships up to 150,000 DWT. Foreign investment from countries like Korea, Norway, and Singapore has helped advance technology transfer and management expertise. The shipbuilding industry is expected to continue expanding to meet growing domestic and regional demand for seaborne transportation and offshore oil and gas support.
