Participants were provided lists of possible uses of resources, grouped by
category (to facilitate the process of designing cards with "demand" and
"supply" of participating companies.
Information about the resources of any kind (including waste),
or
surplus,
whether
they
search,
represented
the
starting
point in identifying new business opportunities throughout the Dorohoi
Workshop, July 2010.
Participants
were
assisted
by
experts
from
the
project
team to identify any resources that surplus (supply, output) leaving
the company / institution and / or entail excessive cost or in many cases
create problems for storage, transport ,neutralization etc

Mini-Workshop
Suceava, 2010
• Date 7.07.2010.
• Location: Suceava City Hall.
• Număr participanţi: 30 persons (employees from SC
Termica SA, ACET SA, representatives of construction
companies and material transport, sanitation employees in
companies,
public
officials
in
the
municipality
of Suceava, the project team).
• Objetives: organizing a formal framework to discuss the
progress on the issue of synergies from the waste dumps
Termica SA and newly identified synergies
MiniW-orkshop
Suceava, 2010
•
The manifestation from Suceava was the fifth of its kind, organized within
the "Ecoreg - Application of industrial ecosystems in regional
development, funded by the European Union LIFE +.
•
This event was a "mini-workshop" and assumed the participation of a
limited number of guests, and discuss achieving synergies identified on a
smaller field of activity.
•
Basically, the main objective of the workshop was to mobilize better the
firms in Suceava and the surrounding area, covering the construction
activity (default pickling works, demolition, etc.), to transport and store
waste liabilities arising from these activities, the deposits of slag and
tailings from TERMICA SA in case of closure, with the 2011 period. At
TERMICA SA the sole shareholder is Suceava CityHall.
Mini-Workshop
Suceava, 2010
•
The possibility that TERMICA SA to achieve its target of closing time
deposit liabilities using waste from demolition, was identified by the
Ecoreg project team in spring 2009, soon after launching the Ecoreg
project (February 2009, Suceava). From that moment, the project team
followed the progress of identified synergies, the practical way they have
developed and evolved.
•
The purpose of organizing the workshop was to provide the framework
within which participants can discuss and evaluate, together with team
members, the fastest solutions, efficient and inexpensive to the problem
faced by TERMICA and, meantime, construction firms, performing
etching of asphalt, demolition, etc. - and do not have a solution for
storage of material derived from this work.
Mini-Workshop
Suceava, 2010
• In this mini-workshop, ECOREG team put in contact
the construction companies and Termica SA, with
the purpose to use the construction materials be
to close the Termica cells by 2011.

12. Identification and characterization of
entities capable of being interconnected
Among the potential synergies identified through Industrial
Symbiosis Workshops, only certain processes / streams / wastes could
be selected through a detailed analysis later in order to
characterize and improve.
Partnerships already concluded or which will be established based
on symbiotic criteria will improve the effectiveness of each partner by the
detection of waste markets, its principal or secondary products.
ECOREG project encourages businesses to look beyond traditional
markets for business opportunities, punctuate the economic benefits of
this approach in order to stimulate economic development with
environmental compliance, by reconsidering the "waste“ as "resource".
CONCLUSIONS AND COMMENTS
Establishing synergies is not the simple identification of the potential
collaboration between two companies.
This implies a lot of work: the managers of both companies involved
in synergy identified must be visited and convinced with pencil on
paper, that it is beneficial synergy, in a period of economic
contraction.
(Managers have other emergencies (unpaid salaries, debts, unable
to attend the auctions because debt contracts outstanding, and
unpaid work or deliveries, redundancy talks with unions - where,
etc..).
There are companies where the manager is also the accounting and
driver and a lawyer and technologist, and all commodities and this is
because he can not afford to pay specialists.
CONCLUSIONS AND COMMENTS
Synergies contribution at improving the economic situation of
the companies must be significant and explained to the
managers in detail, with intelligent arguments.
(No manager will be concerned with the implementation of
synergies, because in this way he will not pollute the environment or
will reduce their consumption. With the environment pollution and
the uneconomic consumed resources, managers could manage
somehow until now.
The manager must be convinced of the profit that he could get from
a synergy.)
CONCLUSIONS AND COMMENTS
Project is not limited to simple synergies, obvious, such as
sawdust valorification or superior capitalization of construction
debris landfill.
(ECOREG team experts have expertise and have already provided
solutions for superior recovery of waste and secondary resources
(for ex., for the lamps burned for electrical equipment collected from
plants for waste food and drinks which can be used in biogas For
agricultural recovery or ash as additives for cement and concrete
recipes or materials during cold chains, etc.).
CONCLUSIONS AND COMMENTS
Identifying and designing complex synergies is requiring
multiple materials tests, and waste characterization.
(Are harmful, can be transported on public roads, what precautions
must be taken, should be packaged as such could be neutralized,
who could legally make such operations, the operators are trained
and authorized to do so?
The process requires testing of technologies (at ECOIND INCD),
wastewater flows are necessary analysis, balance sheets,
developing solutions).
CONCLUSIONS AND COMMENTS
Regarding the resources that could be the object of a synergy,
frequent offers in pilot county - Suceava are: wood and wood
waste.
Their sustainable use is not in combustion, even if they are
renewable fuels, but in the recovery by generating added value.
(For example, using waste wood for particle board or other
purposes was identified at Egger Company from Radauti and
Romanel Company from Vatra Dornei; unfortunately, these
companies do not take timber products besides from forests
managed sustainably (this is the firms policy, very healthy and
for long term).
CONCLUSIONS AND COMMENTS
Most wood waste manufacturers from the pilot county don`t have
certificates supporting that the wood comes from forests managed
sustainably, so their waste rot on the roadsides or, at best, are
burned in the center.
There were organized awareness raising for wood waste producers,
so they know what can be done and so the waste they provided can
become interesting for intensive companies like those mentioned).
Experts have already prepared materials about the formalities that a
wood waste producer would have to meet to certify the origin of the
timber as the formalities which forest owners must comply.
