Assessing potential health impacts of Waste Recovery and reuse business models in Hanoi, Vietnam
International Journal of Public Health, 2017Co-Authors: Mirko S. Winkler, Samuel Fuhrimann, Phuc Pham-duc, Guéladio Cissé, Jürg Utzinger, Hung Nguyen-vietAbstract:Objectives In resource-constrained settings, the Recovery of nutrients and the production of energy from liquid and solid Waste are important. We determined the range and magnitude of potential community health impacts of six solid and liquid Waste Recovery and reuse business models in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Assessing potential health impacts of Waste Recovery and reuse business models in Hanoi, Vietnam
International Journal of Public Health, 2017Co-Authors: Mirko S. Winkler, Samuel Fuhrimann, Guéladio Cissé, Jürg Utzinger, Phuc Pham-duc, Hung Nguyen-vietAbstract:Objectives In resource-constrained settings, the Recovery of nutrients and the production of energy from liquid and solid Waste are important. We determined the range and magnitude of potential community health impacts of six solid and liquid Waste Recovery and reuse business models in Hanoi, Vietnam. Methods We employed a health impact assessment (HIA) approach using secondary data obtained from various sources supplemented with primary data collection. For determining the direction (positive or negative) and magnitude of potential health impacts in the population, a semiquantitative impact assessment was pursued. Results From a public health perspective, Wastewater reuse for inland fish farming, coupled with on-site water treatment has considerable potential for individual and community-level health benefits. One of the business models investigated (i.e. dry fuel manufacturing with agro-Waste) resulted in net negative health impacts. Conclusions In Hanoi, the reuse of liquid and solid Waste—as a mean to recover water and nutrients and to produce energy—has considerable potential for health benefits if appropriately managed and tailored to local contexts. Our HIA methodology provides an evidence-based decision-support tool for identification and promotion of business models for implementation in Hanoi.

trading trash in the transition economic restructuring urban spatial transformation and the boom and bust of hanoi s informal Waste trade
Environment and Planning A, 2009Co-Authors: Carrie L MitchellAbstract:In this paper I explore how one particular segment of the informal Waste-Recovery trade, Waste intermediaries, is impacted by Hanoi's rapid urban economic and spatial change. Using survey and interview data I demonstrate: (1) Waste intermediaries simultaneously gain and lose as a result of Hanoi's urban transition; and (2) the underlying forces of urban spatial change in different areas of the city are quite distinct, which will have a unique impact on the future of informal Waste-Recovery in Hanoi.

industrial symbiosis and Waste Recovery in an indian industrial area
Resources Conservation and Recycling, 2010Co-Authors: Ariana Bain, Megha Shenoy, Weslynne Ashton, Marian ChertowAbstract:Recovery, reuse and recycling of industrial residuals, often dismissed as Wastes, are common in India and other industrializing countries largely due to lower associated costs. Some Wastes are reused within the facility where they are generated, others are reused directly by nearby industrial facilities, and some are recycled via the formal and informal recycling markets. Direct inter-firm reuse is the cornerstone of the phenomenon termed industrial symbiosis, where firms cooperate in the exchange of material and energy resources. This study applies material flow analysis to an economically diverse industrial area in South India to characterize the Recovery, reuse and recycling of industrial residuals. It quantifies the generation of Waste materials from 42 companies as well as the materials that are directly traded across facilities and those that are recycled or disposed. This study encompasses a business cluster in Mysore in the State of Karnataka, and is the first in India to thoroughly quantify material flows to identify existing symbiotic connections in an industrial area. Examined industries in this industrial area generate 897,210 metric tons of Waste residuals annually, and recovered 99.5% of these, 81% with reused by the companies that generated them, with one company, a sugar refinery, processing most of this amount. Geographic data show that operations within 20 km of the industrial area receive over 90% of residuals exiting facility gates. Two-thirds of this amount goes directly to other economic actors for reuse. This study makes key contributions to the literature in distinguishing how particular types of materials are reused in different ways, the geographic extent of symbiotic activities and the important role of the informal sector in industrial Waste management in industrializing regions.
