Promocija uporabe recikliranih gradbenih in industrijskih odpadkov
Promocija uporabe recikliranih gradbenih in industrijskih odpadkov v gradbeništvu Promotion of the recycling of industrial waste and building rubble for the construction industry POROČILO ZA ŠIRŠO JAVNOST LAYMAN’S REPORT LIFE10 INF/SI/138 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 1 01 REBIRTH: REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S LAYMAN’S REPORT REPORT 22 Kontaktni podatki / Contact details: Zavod za gradbeništvo Slovenije Dimičeva 12, SI -1000 Ljubljana Tel.: +386 (0) 1 280 42 51 Alenka Mauko Pranjić alenka.mauko@zag.si Avtorji poročila / Authors: Alenka Mauko Pranjić, Ana Mladenović, Kristina Sever, Janja Leban, Antonija Božič Cerar, Zvonko Cotič, Primož Jurjavčič, Mirko Šprinzer, Jure Leben Fotografije / Photos: Matjaž Zupanc, Primož Oprčkal Naslovnica/Picture on front page: Matjaž Zupanc, Recikliran beton / Recycled concrete Oblikovanje / Design: Klaro d.o.o., Laura Pompe Sterle Naklada/ Number of copies: 2500 Zavod za gradbeništvo Slovenije, december 2014 Odpadek je vir No waste here, just resources Zagon krožnega gospodarstva / Towards the Circular Economy One of the policies of sustainable construction is that waste must also be treated as a potential source of raw materials. Given the extent of Europe’s dependency on imported energy and raw materials, such treatment offers many advantages: reduced demand for energy, natural materials, and landfill space, reduced greenhouse emissions and other negative environmental impacts, and the establishment of a circular economy with green jobs. The construction industry is the most suitable sink for numerous types of waste, for two main reasons: (a) in this field large amounts of material can be used, and (b) in cases when such materials are not environmentally inert, various binders or processes can be used to permanently immobilize their dangerous components. Such a sustainability-oriented approach is required by the Construction Products Regulation (CPR). The CPR brings a new essential requirement, which promotes the sustainable use of resources. Materials are not discriminated against regardless of their source, as it is their properties which matter, as well as their associated applicability and their environmental footprint (in the case of the latter parameter, an objective, quantitative tool is available: LCA - Life Cycle Assessment). Recycling is permitted and supported by the present construction legislation, although some significant documents are still missing, which could help to accelerate use of these waste-based raw materials. New products derived from waste can now be placed on the market, e.g. with Slovenian technical approval or certification. 3 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT Ena od usmeritev trajnostnega gradbeništva je obravnavanje odpadkov kot vir surovin. Za Evropo, ki je odvisna od uvoza energije in surovin, ima to številne prednosti: zmanjšano potrebo po energiji, naravnih surovinah in odlagalnem prostoru, zmanjšanje izpustov toplogrednih plinov in drugih negativnih vplivov na okolje, spodbuditev krožnega gospodarstva z zelenimi delovnimi mesti. Gradbeništvo je za uporabo številnih odpadkov najbolj primerno področje, predvsem iz dveh razlogov: (a) na tem področju je mogoče porabiti veliko količino materialov, (b) v primerih, kadar ti niso okoljsko inertni, je mogoče nevarne komponente trajno imobilizirati z različnimi vezivi ali postopki. Takšen trajnostno usmerjen pristop zahteva tudi Uredba EU o gradbenih proizvodih (CPR), v kateri je nova bistvena zahteva , ki spodbuja trajnostno rabo virov. Materialov ne diskriminira glede na njihov izvor, kar šteje, so značilnosti in s tem povezana uporabnost ter okoljski odtis materialov (za zadnji parameter imamo objektivno, kvantitativno orodje – analizo življenjskega cikla (Life Cycle Assessment)). Gradbena zakonodaja torej recikliranje v splošnem dovoljuje in omogoča, čeprav še manjkajo nekateri dokumenti, ki bi lahko uporabo teh surovin pospešili. Nove proizvode iz odpadkov je mogoče dati na trg denimo s slovenskim tehničnim soglasjem ali certificiranjem. 02 Cilji in namen projekta Project goals and purpose Pripomoči k višji stopnji recikliranja gradbenih in industrijskih odpadkov ter njihovi povečani uporabi v gradbeništvu.

Promocija recikliranja industrijskih in gradbenih odpadkov in njihove uporabe v gradbeništvu Promotion of the recycling of industrial waste and building rubble for the construction industry Povzetek projekta / Summary of the project In 2013 more than 4.6 million tonnes of waste was generated in Slovenia. The largest proportion of waste comes from the commercial and industrial sector, a significant share of which is generated by industrial thermal processes and construction and demolition activities. Waste is a potential resource for the construction industry, as construction works require large quantities of materials, which can be provided from recycled waste. Waste derived construction products are suitable quality for different purposes while potentially hazardous substances are immobilised in the final products. While recycling of construction and demolition waste (C&D waste) into construction products is relatively simple (assuming that it is properly sorted at the source and hazardous substances are excluded), the recycling of different industrial wastes is more challenging. The latter include various voluminous wastes with a low potential for use, such as gypsum and some types of ash. Slag from carbon steel production in electric arc furnaces is among the most promising industrial waste streams. Powdery wastes and sludges, exhibiting binding or hydraulic properties, such as fly ash from coal combustion, waste biomass, municipal waste, and paper sludge, also have great potential. Knowledge, technology, and examples of best practice in using such waste already exist in Slovenia. Waste management and integration of waste in the construction industry is covered by extensive legislation. Nevertheless, the rate of their processing and use in practice is still low. A lot of waste is still deposited in nature in illegal dumping sites. Up to two thirds of these dumps consist of building rubble. Several factors contribute to this unwanted practice: a lack of public awareness (professional and general), a lack of integration of sustainability requirements in construction projects in the public and private sector, an abundance of available competitive natural resources, the complexity and sometimes mutual exclusion of different regulations, and the lack of clear national strategies and actions to promote the use of waste in private and public procurement. 5 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT V Sloveniji je leta 2013 nastalo več kot 4,6 milijona ton odpadkov, med katerimi prevladujejo odpadki iz proizvodnih in storitvenih dejavnosti; občuten delež med njimi nastaja v termičnih procesih ter pri rušitvah in gradbenih delih. Odpadki so potencialna surovina za uporabo v gradbeništvu, saj je tu mogoče porabiti velike količine, končni proizvodi so dovolj kakovostni za številne namene uporabe, morebitne nevarne snovi v odpadkih se učinkovito imobilizirajo. Medtem ko je recikliranje gradbenih odpadkov v agregat razmeroma preprosto (ob predpostavki, da so ruševine na izvoru pravilno sortirane in da so nevarne snovi izločene), so različni industrijski odpadki večji izziv. Med njimi so številni voluminozni odpadki, ki imajo nizek potencial za recikliranje, kot so denimo sadre in nekateri pepeli. Med najbolj perspektivne odpadke spada žlindra iz proizvodnje ogljičnih jekel v elektroobločnih pečeh. Velik potencial imajo tudi prašnati odpadki in mulji, ki imajo vezivne ali hidravlične značilnosti (elektrofiltrski pepel iz sežiga premoga, biomase, komunalnih odpadkov, papirniškega mulja). V Sloveniji obstajajo znanje, tehnologije in primeri praks, kako odpadke uporabiti. Področje odpadkov in vključevanje odpadkov v gradbeništvu ureja obsežna zakonodaja. Kljub temu je raven njihove predelave in uporabe v praksi na nizki stopnji, številni odpadki pa se še vedno odlagajo v naravo, na divja odlagališča, na katerih prevladujejo gradbeni odpadki. Razlogov za neustrezno ravnanje je več: slaba ozaveščenost strokovne in splošne javnosti, slabo vključevanje trajnostnih zahtev v gradbene projekte v javnem in zasebnem sektorju, velika razpoložljivost in konkurenčnost naravnih virov, kompleksnost in mestoma medsebojna neusklajenost in nezadostna povezanost predpisov ter pomanjkanje jasnih nacionalnih strategij in ukrepov, ki bi spodbujali uporabo odpadkov v zasebnih in javnih naročilih. Namen projekta ReBirth je bil spodbuditi uporabo recikliranih gradbenih in industrijskih odpadkov v gradbeništvu z različnimi komunikacijskimi, promocijskimi in ozaveščevalnimi aktivnostmi. Zaradi raznovrstnosti ključne javnosti (od splošne do visoko specializirane strokovne javnosti) in posredovanih informacij smo projekt oblikovali v 18 različnih akcij. Za strokovno javnost in lokalne skupnosti smo pripravili štiri praktične prikaze (prikaz uporabe črne jeklarske žlindre v cestogradnji, prikaz selektivnega rušenja objektov, recikliranja in uporabe odpadkov, nastalih pri rušitvi, prikaz čiščenja divjega odlagališča in uporabe gradbenih odpadkov iz divjih odlagališč ter prikaz obnove ceste s postopkom hladne reciklaže), osem delavnic o zelenem javnem naročanju, o gradbenih odpadkih in industrijskih odpadkih, pet strokovnih priročnikov in štiri videoprikaze o uporabi odpadkov. Splošno javnost in občine smo spodbujali k pravilnemu ravnanju z gradbenimi odpadki in s tem zmanjšanju števila divjih odlagališč z mobilno razstavo, ki je potovala po slovenskih občinah in šolah. Za splošno javnost smo organizirali tudi nagradno igro. Vse aktivnosti projekta so spremljali strokovni in poljudni članki, stičišče vseh informacij v projektu pa je spletna stran. Divja odlagališča 66 REBIRTH: REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S LAYMAN’S REPORT REPORT The ReBirth project promoted and encouraged the use of recycled C&D waste and industrial waste in the construction industry through a variety of communication, promotional, and awareness‑raising activities. Given the diversity of targeted key audiences (from the general public to highly specialized professionals) and information provided, the project included 18 different activities. Professional audience and local authorities were targeted through four practical demonstrations (using steel slag in road construction, selective demolition and recycling of C&D waste, recycling and using building rubble from illegal dumping sites, and cold-in-place recycling for road rehabilitation), eight workshops on green public procurement, C&D waste and industrial waste, and five technical manuals and four video demonstrations on the use of waste. Public awareness about illegal dumping sites was developed through mobile exhibition. The general public was targeted through a raffle. All these activities were supported by expert and lay papers. The project website provided a network for all target groups and activities.

Potrebujemo tehnična navodila za selektivno zbiranje, pripravo in nadaljnje ravnanje z odpadki? Preliminarna študija Preliminary study REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 8 S študijo smo pridobili podrobnejši vpogled v razmere na področju ravnanja z odpadki in njihove uporabe v gradbeništvu, v zakonodajne zahteve in tehnične pogoje, ki jih morajo izpolnjevati odpadki, da bi jih lahko uporabili kot gradbene proizvode, v ekonomske okoljske instrumente in oceno življenjskega cikla proizvodov. Pripravili smo tudi spletno anketo, v kateri so sodelovale vse ciljne skupine, od industrije, gradbenih podjetij, projektantov in nadzornikov, predelovalcev in zbiralcev odpadkov, javnih služb ravnanja z odpadki ter občine in upravne enote, skupaj 360 oseb. Med industrijske odpadke, ki so za uporabo v gradbeništvu najbolj perspektivni, spadajo odpadki iz termičnih procesov, kot so elektrofiltrski pepeli, energetske sadre, žlindre, prahovi, livarski peski in drugo. Gradbeni odpadki so primerna surovina, vendar pa ključnim akterjem manjkajo predvsem informacije in navodila o postopkih selektivnega rušenja in možnostih nadaljnjega ravnanja s tako pridobljenim materialom. To velja tudi za industrijske odpadke. A study was conducted to gain a more detailed insight into the state of affairs concerning waste management, its use in construction, legislative requirements with requisite technical conditions for the conversion of waste to a construction material, as well as economic environmental instruments and life cycle assessment. All identified target groups, consisting of industry, construction companies, project planners, construction supervisors, waste collection and recovery operators, public waste management services, municipalities, and administrative units participated in a web survey, totalling 360 participants. Among industrial waste, waste from thermal processes such as fly ash and gypsum from thermal power plants, slag, dust and foundry sand etc. proved to be the most promising with regard to their use in construction. C&D waste is a suitable raw material, but key stakeholders lack the information and guidelines on selective demolition procedures and the possibilities for using the materials thus recovered. This also applies to industrial waste. Začetna in sklepna konferenca Initial and final conference The initial conference Maintain Resources – Recycle Waste was organised in March 2012. The goal of the conference was to introduce the project to the professional and general public and involve them in participating in the project activities. The final conference No Waste Here, Just Resources, organised in June 2014, was centred on experience and the selected practical case studies for recovered waste streams showing the most promise for beneficial use in construction. The experience of inspectors authorised to monitor C&D waste management and a case study of a municipality oriented towards green development was presented. The conference proceedings also indicated that it was possible to encourage the use of alternative materials instead of natural resources through public procurement of road construction and reconstruction. Sklepna konferenca projekta je potekala junija 2014 v Ljubljani / Project final conference held in Ljubljana in June 2014 9 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT Začetna konferenca, ki smo jo organizirali marca 2012, je imela naslov Ohranimo vire – reciklirajmo odpadke. Strokovno in širšo javnost smo hoteli seznaniti s projektom in jih pritegniti k sodelovanju pri aktivnostih. Sklepno konferenco Odpadek je začetek novega, ki je potekala junija 2014, smo posvetili izkušnjam in izbranim primerom iz prakse za tista področja, na katerih je največ možnosti za koristno uporabo predelanih odpadkov v gradbeništvu. Seznanili smo se tudi s pogledom inšpekcije na ravnanje z gradbenimi odpadki v praksi in primerom ozelenitve razvoja občine ter nakazali možnosti spodbujanja rabe alternativnih materialov namesto naravnih virov prek javnih naročil gradnje in obnove cest. Praktični prikazi On-site demonstrations REBIRTH: REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S LAYMAN’S REPORT REPORT 10 10 Vroča asfaltna zmes, ki vsebuje umetni agregat iz žlindre / Hot asphalt mixture containing artificial aggregate from slag Prikaz uporabe jeklarske žlindre kot agregata v asfaltnih obrabnih plasteh Demonstration of using steel slag as an aggregate in asphalt wearing courses V proizvodnih procesih industrije nastajajo industrijski odpadki, njihovemu nastanku pa se ni mogoče izogniti. Eden takšnih materialov je črna jeklarska žlindra (t. j. žlindra iz proizvodnje ogljičnih jekel v elektroobločni pečeh). Ustrezni tehnološki postopki, kot sta zadostno staranje po izlitju iz peči in pravilna mehanska predelava, zagotavljajo ustrezne tehnične značilnosti in uporabnost nastalega umetnega agregata. Prednosti črne jeklarske žlindre izhajajo iz njene mikrostrukture in fizikalnokemijskih značilnostih, kar je povsem primerljivo oz. celo boljše od značilnosti konvencionalnih naravnih agregatov iz magmatskih eruptivnih kamnin. V sklopu projekta smo na regionalni cesti Kneža– Podbrdo praktično prikazali uporabo agregata iz črne jeklarske žlindre kot delnega nadomestka naravnega agregata v asfaltni obrabni plasti. Industrial waste is generated in industrial production processes, and its occurrence is unavoidable. Steel slag from the production of carbon steel in electric arc furnaces is one such material. Adequate technical characteristics and applicability of created manufactured aggregate are influenced by the appropriate technological processes, such as sufficient aging after discharging from the furnace and correct mechanical processing. Benefits of steel slag arise from its microstructure and physicochemical properties, which are comparable or even superior to those of conventional natural aggregates from igneous rocks. An on-site demonstration using aggregate from black steel slag as a partial substitute of natural aggregate in the asphalt wearing course was conducted on the regional Kneža – Podbrdo road. Praktični prikaz uporabe črne jeklarske žlindre v cestogradnji / Demonstration of steel slag application in road construction (Podbrdo, Slovenia, June 2012) Prikaz recikliranja in uporabe gradbenih odpadkov iz zrušenih objektov Demonstration of the recycling of C&D waste Na praktičnem prikazu so se udeleženci seznanili s postopkom selektivnega rušenja objekta (t. j. načrtovanim postopkom rušenja, s katerim pridobimo ločene odpadke, primerne za recikliranje in nadaljnjo uporabo), recikliranjem gradbenih odpadkov na gradbišču, njihovo ponovno uporabo pri gradnji nasipa in ustreznimi tehnološkimi postopki in okoljskimi ukrepi. Ključno v postopku selektivnega rušenja, recikliranja in ponovne uporabe je, da se najprej odstranijo nevarni odpadki, da se čim več gradbenih The participants were given a practical view of selective demolition (i.e. the process of planned and concise sorting of materials appropriate for recycling and further use), of recycling C&D waste on the construction site itself, their application in the construction of an embankment, and of the corresponding technological processes and environmental measures. It is important, after removing hazardous waste, to preserve as much of the C&D waste suitable for recycling as possible, to recycle on site where the waste REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 11 Prikaz selektivnega rušenja in recikliranja gradbenih odpadkov / Demonstration of selective demolition and C&D waste recycling (Maribor - Pesnica, Slovenia, April 2013) odpadkov, primernih za recikliranje, reciklira že na lokaciji nastanka in da se predelane gradbene odpadke spet uporabi kot novi material na istem ali bližnjem gradbišču. was generated, and to re-use processed C&D waste as a new material on the same or nearby construction site. Prikaz čiščenja divjega odlagališča gradbenih odpadkov in postopkov njihove predelave/Demonstration of cleaning up an illegal dump filled with C&D waste and its treatment REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 12 Udeleženci so se seznanili s pravno podlago zavezancev in pokritja stroškov, nato pa s postopkom čiščenja divjega odlagališča, na katerem so bili nelegalno odloženi gradbeni odpadki. Ogledali so si tudi postopek predelave izločenih koristnih frakcij gradbenih odpadkov v nove gradbene proizvode v bližnjem predelovalnem centru. Namen prikaza je bil predvsem opozoriti na to, da so lahko divja odlagališča gradbenih odpadkov pomemben rudnik surovin za uporabo v gradbeništvu. The participants were acquainted with the legal obligations in terms of the personal liability, cost allocation, as well as the actual cleanup process for illegal dumping sites with building rubble. The recycling process of useful fractions of C&D waste into new building products was displayed in a nearby processing centre. The main purpose of the demonstration was to illustrate that illegal building rubble dumps can be important mines for raw materials which can be used in construction. Predelovalni center gradbenih odpadkov, ena izmed lokacij praktičnega prikaza / Processing centre for C&D waste - one of the sites of practical demonstration Praktični prikaz čiščenja divjega odlagališča in recikliranja v predelovalnem obratu / Illegal dumping site clean-up with recycling in a processing centre demonstration (Ajdovščina-Laže, September, 2013) Prikaz obnove ceste po postopku hladne reciklaže Demonstration of road reconstruction by cold in-place recycling Cold-in-place recycling is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for the rehabilitation of damaged and worn-out roads, which, compared to conventional approaches, offers a number of economic, environmental, and technical advantages. In the course of this procedure, the existing damaged road is crushed and ground with the addition of an appropriate binder. In this way advantage of all the existing worn-out material is gained, eliminating the cost of the excavation and disposal of the old surface, as well as the cost of preparing and transporting of new material. An on-site demonstration of road rehabilitation using cold-in-place recycling was presented on the regional Bača – Dolenja Trebuša road. Prikaz obnove ceste po postopku hladne reciklaže / Demonstration of road reconstruction by cold in-place recycling (Bača - Dolenja Trebuša, Slovenia, July 2014) 13 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT Hladna reciklaža je do okolja prijazna in gospodarna metoda za obnovo poškodovanih in dotrajanih cest, v primerjavi s konvencionalnimi pristopi pa ponuja številne prednosti z ekonomskega, okoljskega in tudi tehničnega vidika. Po tem postopku se poškodovana cesta zdrobi in zmelje ter se ji doda ustrezno vezivo. Na ta način izkoristimo ves dotrajani material, s čimer odpadeta strošek izkopa in odlaganja starega ter strošek priprave in transporta novega materiala. Obnovo ceste po postopku hladne reciklaže smo prikazali na glavni cesti Bača–Dolenja Trebuša. Delavnice Workshops Delavnica o zelenem javnem naročanju / Workshop on green public procurement (Ljubljana - Slovenia, October 2012) REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 14 Ozelenitev javnega naročanja – industrijski in gradbeni odpadki v javnem naročanju Green Public Procurement - industrial and C&D waste in green public procurement Z vključevanjem okoljskih meril v javna naročila lahko država pomembno vpliva na proizvodnjo in prodajo proizvodov, ki manj obremenjujejo okolje v svojem življenjskem krogu. Na delavnicah o zelenem javnem naročanju smo spregovorili o pomenu zelenega javnega naročanja in načinu vključitve okoljskih meril v javno naročanje. Prikazali smo tudi primere iz prakse na področju gradnje cest. Udeležence smo želeli spodbuditi k vključevanju okoljskih meril v javno naročanje. Še zlasti pomembno je k zelenemu javnemu naročanju spodbuditi občine, saj je delež občinskih cest več kot 70 odstotkov površin vseh javnih cest. By incorporating environmental criteria into public procurement, the state administration could wield significant influence on the production and sale of products with environmentally less damaging effects throughout their life cycle. The workshops highlighted the significance of green public procurement and how to include environmental criteria in public procurement procedures. An actual case study of a road construction was presented. The participants were encouraged to incorporate environmental criteria into green public procurement procedures, especially procedures conducted by municipalities, as the share of roads in municipality ownership exceeds 70% of all public road surfaces. Pravilno ravnanje z gradbenimi odpadki Construction and demolition waste management Gradbeni odpadki, kot so beton, opeka, kovina, les in drugi, ki nastanejo pri gradnji, vzdrževanju ali rušenju objektov, so pomemben tok odpadkov. Veliko teh odpadkov konča na črnih odlagališčih, na katerih obremenjujejo naravo, tla, vode in ogrožajo zdravje ljudi in drugih živih bitij. S pravilnim pristopom in selektivnim rušenjem pridobimo ločene gradbene odpadke, ki jih je mogoče pripraviti za ponovno uporabo ali predelati v gradbene proizvode. O tem, kako pristopiti k rušenju objektov, kakšne so obveznosti in odgovornosti investitorjev in projektantov, kako pripraviti projektno dokumentacijo in kako poteka rušenje, ter o možnostih reciklaže in uporabe tako pridobljenih materialov smo spregovorili na delavnicah, ki so se jih udeležili predstavniki državne uprave in lokalnih skupnosti, izvajalci gradbenih del ter investitorji in projektanti. C&D waste such as concrete, bricks, metal, wood, etc., which is produced during construction, maintenance or demolition, is a significant waste stream. A lot of this waste ends up in illegal fly tips, where it imposes a burden on nature, soil, and water, and is a risk to public health and the wellbeing of natural fauna and flora. An appropriate approach and selective demolition generates separate construction waste streams, which can be either prepared for reuse or recovered into construction products. The workshop showed the participants how demolition operations should be approached, investor and project planner obligations, and the responsibilities, project documentation preparation, demolition stages, and recycling possibilities, as well as possible recovered material applications. The workshops were attended by representatives of the state administration, local communities, construction operators, investors, and project planners. Industrijski odpadki – vir surovin za gradbeništvo Industrial waste - a construction resource The well-received workshops attempted to shed more light on the demands stemming from waste legislation, construction product requirements, and the REACH regulation pertaining to industrial waste. It was ascertained that there is not enough interaction between professionals working in different fields to broaden the scope of knowledge related to environmental, construction product, chemical, and other legislation. Practical case studies were presented together with the advantages linked to the use of waste materials instead of virgin resources, e.g. for backfilling and embankments, concrete preparation, as well as for asphalt layers applied on roads, airports, and other transport surfaces. The workshops drew in numerous participants, from steelwork foundries, chemical and construction industries, power plants, municipal services, project design consultancies, project planning, inspectorates, administrative units and agencies, as well as civil engineering students. 15 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT Na delavnicah o industrijskih odpadkih smo poskušali osvetliti in povezati zakonodajne zahteve s področja odpadkov in gradbenih proizvodov ter uredbo REACH, kar se je izkazalo za zelo dobrodošlo. Ugotavljamo namreč, da je premalo povezovanja med strokami in širšega vpogleda v zakonodajo, ki se nanaša na okolje, gradbene proizvode in kemikalije. Prikazali smo tudi primere iz prakse in prednosti uporabe tovrstnih materialov namesto naravnih virov na primer za zasipe in nasipe, pripravo betona, asfaltne prevleke za ceste, letališča in druge prometne površine. Tema je pritegnila številne predstavnike jeklarn in livarn, kemijske in gradbene industrije, energetike, komunalnih dejavnosti, projektnosvetovalnega inženiringa in inšpekcijskih služb, ministrstev, uradov in agencij ter študente gradbene fakultete. Priročniki Technical guidelines REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 16 Priročniki so namenjeni povzročiteljem odpadkov, naročnikom (javnim in zasebnim), lokalnim skupnostim, nadzornikom gradbišč, projektantom, zbiralcem in predelovalcem industrijskih in gradbenih odpadkov, izvajalcem gradbenih del. Technical guidelines are intended for waste producers, investors (public and private), local communities, supervisors, planners, collectors and processors of industrial and C&D waste, construction companies. Priročnik za uporabo agregata iz črne jeklarske žlindre iz elektroobločnih peči v asfaltnih obrabnih plasteh / Manual for using black steel slag as an aggregate in asphalt wearing courses Priročnik je nastal z namenom, da bi potencialne uporabnike seznanili z žlindro iz elektroobločnih peči pri pridobivanju ogljičnih jekel kot materialom, ki spada s stališča uporabe v gradbeništvu med najpomembnejše industrijske vire, in spodbudili njegovo uporabo. V prvem delu so opisani izvor in vrste žlinder, karakteristične značilnosti jeklarske žlindre in agregata iz jeklarske žlindre po predelavi, njihova tržna razpoložljivost in pravni status. V drugem delu priročnika so predstavljene konkretne možnosti uporabe umetnega agregata iz jeklarske žlindre kot kakovostnega nadomestka naravnega agregata v asfaltnih obrabnih plasteh. Spletna povezava / the manual can be downloaded from: The manual was conceived to educate potential users on application of slag generated during carbon steel production in an electric arc furnace, as a civil engineering material. It is one of the most valuable industrial resources, its usage should be encouraged. The first part describes the origin and types of slag, the characteristic properties of steel slag and steel slag aggregate after processing, market availability, and legal status. The second part of the manual shows concrete possibilities for using manufactured aggregate from steel slag as a high quality substitute for natural aggregate in asphalt wearing courses. http://www.re-birth.eu/data/Prirocnik_za_uporabo_agregata.pdf REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 17 Priročnik za trajnostno rušenje objektov in recikliranje gradbenih odpadkov / Manual for sustainable demolition and recycling of construction and demolition waste Priročnik obravnava trajnostno ravnanje z gradbenimi odpadki s poudarkom na recikliranju določenih gradbenih odpadkov in uporabi iz njih pridobljenih recikliranih materialov. Uporabniki bodo v priročniku dobili informacije o upravnih, zakonodajnih in tehničnih postopkih, ki jih je treba izpeljati, da gradbeni odpadki po reciklaži izgubijo status odpadka in postanejo nova surovina oz. material za uporabo v gradbeništvu. The manual serves as a guide to sustainable management of C&D waste, with an emphasis on the recycling of certain construction waste and the use of derived recycled materials. The manual provides information for users on the administrative, legislative, and technical procedures which must be carried out for construction waste to achieve “end-of-waste” status after recycling and become raw materials for use in construction.

V priročniku sta razložena princip analize LCA in postopek za njeno izvedbo, poleg tega je predstavljen praktičen primer analize LCA iz cestogradnje s primerjavo okoljskih vplivov uporabe dveh različnih vrst asfaltnih zmesi (asfaltna zmes z naravnim agregatom in asfaltna zmes z agregatom iz črne jeklarske žlindre), vgrajenih v asfaltno obrabno plast cestišča. Ena izmed aktivnosti projekta ReBirth je bila ozaveščanje študentov tehničnih strok o uporabnosti odpadkov v gradbeništvu / One of the activities of ReBirth project was raising awareness about waste recycling benefits among students of technical schools Predavanja Lectures for students REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 20 Strokovna predavanja za študente srednjih tehničnih šol in fakultet smo pripravili, da bi ozavestili pomen uporabe odpadkov med bodočimi strokovnjaki (projektanti, gradbeniki, raziskovalci …). Študente smo seznanili z razpoložljivostjo odpadkov, gradbeno in okoljsko zakonodajo, zahtevami za predelavo, trendi razvoja stroke in drugimi aktivnostmi. Študenti so si lahko ogledali laboratorij za reciklirane materiale in spoznali glavne metode za ugotavljanje značilnosti gradbenih proizvodov, ki vključujejo odpadke. Stopnjo ozaveščenosti in informiranja po delavnici smo preverjali z nagradno igro (študenti so izpolnili krajše vprašalnike) in razdelili manjše praktične nagrade. Lectures for students of technical secondary schools and colleges were held to create awareness of the importance of using waste among future professionals (architects, construction engineers, researchers, etc.). They were informed about the availability of waste, construction and environmental law requirements, requirements for processing waste, developments in the area, and other activities. Students were able to see a laboratory for recycled materials and learn about the main methods for determining the characteristics of construction products, which include recycled waste. Their level of awareness and knowledge after the workshop was checked (students filled out short questionnaire). A raffle of the answers was performed, the winners of which were given small prizes. Študenti, ki so se udeležili predavanj, so sodelovali v nagradni igri in prejeli manjše praktične nagrade / Students attending lectures were involved in a small raffle with practical awards Mobilna razstava Mobile exhibition Mobilno razstavo smo pripravili, da bi ozaveščali splošno javnost o možnosti uporabe gradbenih odpadkov kot surovine za gradbeništvo / A mobile exhibition was prepared to raise awareness among general public about C&D waste as a construction source The mobile exhibition was designed to show the general public the problems and advantages of recycling industrial and C&D waste. The exhibition shows how to approach demolition, how to deal with the C&D waste generated, and how to extract high quality raw materials from waste for further use in the construction industry. The mobile exhibition was set in 20 different locations from schools, libraries, municipalities and various other organizations. Kraji, kjer je gostovala mobilna razstava / Map of municipalities in Slovenia hosting ReBirth mobile exhibition Vzorci recikliranih agregatov z mobilne razstave / Samples of recycled aggregates were shown at the exhibition 21 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT Z mobilno razstavo smo širši javnosti predstavili problematiko in prednosti recikliranja gradbenih odpadkov. Razstava prikazuje, kako pristopiti k rušenju objektov, kam z nastalimi gradbenimi odpadki in kako iz gradbenih odpadkov pridobiti kakovostno surovino za nadaljnjo uporabo v gradbeništvu. Mobilna razstava je gostovala na 20 različnih lokacijah, šolah, knjižnicah, občinah in različnih drugih organizacijah.

Nagradna igra Raffle 5. DIVJA ODLAGALIŠČA ODPADKOV JE POTREBNO? REBIRTH: REBIRTH:LAYMAN’S LAYMAN’SREPORT REPORT 24 Strokovno in pravilno čistiti. Zasuti. Zabetonirati. Z nagradno igro smo hoteli pritegniti tudi širšo javnost, ji sporočiti, da gradbeni odpadki ne spadajo v naravo in da jih je mogoče reciklirati in spet uporabiti. Nagradni kviz je potekal na spletni strani projekta, promovirali smo ga tudi s spletnimi pasicami na najbolj obiskanih slovenskih spletnih portalih in Facebooku projekta. Za glavno nagrado tablični računalnik, ki jo je prispeval pokrovitelj, se je potegovalo kar 1836 sodelujočih. Poleg izjemnega števila sodelujočih so dokaz za uspeh te akcije tudi pravilni odgovori, ki jih je bilo kar 95 %. The raffle was intended to attract the general, lay public and inform them that C&D waste does not belong in nature and that it can be recycled and reused. The quiz ran for one month on the project website and was promoted with banners on the most popular Slovenian websites and the ReBirth Facebook page. A total of 1,836 participants contended for the main prize - a tablet, which was donated by a sponsor. The raffle was a great success, not only in terms of the number of participants, but also in terms of the results, as 95% of all questions were answered correctly. Koristi in učinki projekta na ciljne javnosti in okolje Project benefits and impacts on target groups and the environment The vast number of activities including workshops, conferences, on-site and video demonstrations, exhibitions, presentations, and manuals attracted both professionals and the general public and contributed to awareness raising and a change in attitudes towards waste resources. Approximately 1300 representatives from industry, construction companies, project planners, construction supervisors, waste collection and recovery operators, public waste management services, inspectorates, state institutions, agencies, municipalities, nongovernmental organisations, schools, technical students, and others participated on conferences, lectures, workshops and practical demonstrations. The activities increased participants’ knowledge and awareness regarding reuse and recycling both of C&D waste and industrial waste. They also encouraged participants to broaden their knowledge and change their waste management practices within their own local environment. The project gained extensive public support from both professionals and the general public, and united various spheres of knowledge, viewpoints, and experience, and encouraged the interaction of various professions and institutions. 25 25 REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 04 S številnimi aktivnostmi, delavnicami, konferencami, praktičnimi in video prikazi, razstavami, predavanji in priročniki smo k sodelovanju pritegnili strokovno in tudi širšo javnost ter pripomogli k ozaveščanju in spreminjanju odnosa do odpadkov – virov surovin. Na konferencah, predavanjih, delavnicah in prikazih je sodelovalo skoraj 1300 predstavnikov industrije, izvajalcev gradbenih del, zbiralcev in predelovalcev odpadkov, projektantov, nadzornikov, lokalnih javnih služb ravnanja z odpadki, inšpekcijskih služb, državnih institucij, agencij, občin, nevladnih organizacij, šol, študentov in drugih. Zaradi projekta so si sodelujoči pridobili znanje in postali bolj ozaveščeni glede možnosti ponovne uporabe in recikliranja gradbenih in industrijskih odpadkov. Aktivnosti projekta so jih spodbudile k razširjanju pridobljenega znanja in tudi spremembi ravnanja z odpadki v lastnem okolju. Projekt je dobil veliko podporo strokovne javnosti in tudi širše. Povezal je različno znanje, poglede in izkušnje ter spodbudil k sodelovanju različnih strok in institucij. REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 26 Industrijski odpadki so velika družina različnih materialov z različnim potencialom za recikliranje. So velik izziv in priložnost za uporabo v gradbeništvu. Projekt je povezal povzročitelje odpadkov in tudi druge institucije, vpete v izvajanje zakonodaje. Pripomogel je k širšemu vpogledu v zakonodajo, ki se nanaša na odpadke, gradbene proizvode, kemikalije in druge vidike okolja ter s tem k prepoznavanju odpadkov kot viru surovin. Pripomogel je k temu, da nekatere ostanke proizvodnje, ki so jih včasih uvrščali med odpadke, ne obravnavajo več kot takšne, ampak kot stranske proizvode. Tak primer so jeklarske žlindre. To je tudi eden od razlogov, zakaj se je količina nastalih odpadkov iz nekaterih skupin v zadnjih letih zmanjšala, na primer odpadkov iz termičnih procesov iz skoraj 1,6 milijona ton leta 2011 na milijon ton leta 20131. Gradbeni odpadki so s stališča uporabe v gradbeništvu pomembna surovina. Zanje je značilno, da jih je mogoče predelati in koristno uporabiti ob pogoju, da se z njimi pravilno ravna že ob njihovem nastajanju. Tudi na tem področju je projekt pripomogel k izboljšanju znanja o pravilnem ravnanju z gradbenimi odpadki, kakovosti pridobljenih recikliranih agregatov in možnostih uporabe tako pridobljenih materialov namesto naravnih virov na primer za nasipe, zasipe, asfalte, betone ... Spodbudil je občine in njihove lokalne javne službe in tudi druge institucije k razširjanju tega vedenja v svojih okoljih. Spremembe na tem področju nakazujejo tudi podatki o količinah odloženih gradbenih odpadkov, ki se je z 99.567 ton leta 2011 zmanjšala na 21.075 ton leta 20132. Industrial waste constitutes a large family of various materials with different recycling potentials. As such it offers a great challenge and opportunity for use in construction. The project united waste producers and other institutions involved in the implementation of waste legislation. As a result, the project contributed towards a broader insight into legislation relevant to waste, construction products, chemicals, and other environmental aspects, which in turn proffered the recognition of waste as a resource. It supported the reassessment of industrial residues. Industrial residues, which used to be classified as waste, were recognised as by-products. Steel slag is such an example. This is one of the reasons why waste quantities have declined in recent years, e.g. waste from thermal processes dropped from 1.6 million tonnes in 2011 to 1 million tonnes in 20131. C&D waste is a significant resource with regard to its potential for use in construction. This waste stream is eligible for recovery and beneficial use if it is properly managed from the moment it is generated. The project also elevated the level of knowledge concerning proper C&D waste management, the quality of recovered recycled aggregates and their possibilities for use for embankments, backfilling, asphalt, concrete, etc., instead of natural resources. It encouraged municipalities and their local public services and other institutions to spread this knowledge in their local communities. Changes in this field are also evident from data pertaining to C&D waste disposal, which plummeted from 99,567 tonnes in 2011 to 21,075 tonnes in 20132.

Preglednejši predpisi, njihova medsebojna usklajenost in razumljivost so pogoj za večjo učinkovitost pri izvajanju v praksi. The project helped identify legislative inadequacies regarding both the requirements and their implementation, and signalled the need to change the existing legislation on C&D waste. This legislation needs to become more coherent, harmonised, and understandable in order for it to be put into practice more efficiently. REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 27 Kako naprej? The way forward? REBIRTH: LAYMAN’S REPORT 28 05 S popularizacijo priročnikov in videoprikazov in nadaljnjim povezovanjem strok v sklopu poprojektnih aktivnosti, kar vključuje redno sodelovanje partnerjev, organizacijo delavnic in strokovnih srečanj, sodelovanje z zakonodajalcem pri pripravi sprememb predpisov in drugo, bo projekt omogočil razširjanje pridobljenega znanja tudi po koncu projekta. Združili smo znanje različnih strok in v sklopu tega pripravili tudi osnove za okoljska merila za gradnjo in obnovo cest, kar bi lahko državnim in občinskim javnim naročnikom pomagalo pri vključevanju okoljskih vidikov v javna naročila. S tem bi dodatno spodbudili recikliranje in povpraševanje po alternativnih materialih namesto naravnih virov. Projektni partnerji si bomo prizadevali za uveljavitev teh usmeritev, prostovoljnih ali obveznih, tudi po koncu projekta. By mainstreaming the manuals and video demonstrations, as well as the subsequent interconnection of professions within the after‑project framework, including regular cooperation among project partners, organisation of workshops, professional gatherings, cooperation with legislators in drafting changes to legislation, the project will make it possible to expand existing knowledge. The project brought together knowledge from several professional fields, which led to the preparation of environmental criteria for road construction and repair. The criteria can assist state and municipal procurement staff in including environmental aspects in public procurement of these services. This could additionally encourage recycling and the demand for alternative materials instead of virgin ones. Project partners will endeavour to implement these guidelines, either voluntarily or compulsorily after the project has come to a conclusion.
