The cost of recycling plastic in Singapore will remain high in the forseeable future. The easiest way to decrease plastic waste is to reduce the use of plastic and increase the length of its life cycle.

# data[].attributes.body
Subsidise eco packaging for companies so that it can be more widely produced and used for food deliveries across Singapore as it is currently not cost effective

# data[].attributes.body
although we can provide subsidies and replacements to non recyclable plastics we should focus on how to go about recycling non-recyclable plastics as of current time as the transition to using more recyclable plastics take time to be fully implemented. Additionally, we should focus on maybe investing in research on how to optimize product design as well to use less plastic overall.

we could have tax deductions for companies who use eco packaging so as to decrease the costs and this will also have minimal impact on consumers

# data[].attributes.body
cost concern (of making recyclable plastics; recycling itself)
administrative concern
education so as to increase the efficiency of recycled plastics

non-negotiable: must decrease plastic waste; reduce instead of recycle (education)

negotiable: "plastic fine"-- but must be sure to ensure that it's seen as a fine and not a fee; must be large enough

incentives for corporations to reduce plastic usage

The government will provide incentives for large corporations to buy into our policy. Lowered taxes, investments into research, sustainable materials/products subsidized for these companies

Hawkers, F+B retailers could be instructed to provide no plastic containers at all to consumers. They must bring their own containers.
This is actually cheaper for sellers because they need not buy as much plastic packaging.

The absolute amount of non-domestic waste produced far outweighs the amount of waste produced by households. According to NEA statistics, 5.37 million tonnes of non-domestic waste was produced in 2019, compared to 1.87 million tonnes of domestic waste. So focusing on non-domestic recycling might be more effective.

Singapore has taken another step in its long-term plans to improve its recycling rates and capabilities, particularly its ability to recover more plastic waste.

Last week, the National Environment Agency (NEA) awarded the tender for the feasibility study and design of a pilot plastic recovery facility to engineering firm HTP GmbH & Co. The company specialises in the planning and design of waste management and recycling systems.

The feasibility study will help the NEA identify and assess the capacity and design of the facility, as well as the requirements for a suitable site, the agency said.

The study is expected to start soon and be completed by the third quarter of this year.

It will run parallel to a joint study between the NEA and energy company Shell that was announced last October, on the feasibility of chemically recycling waste in Singapore.

The NEA said the plastic recovery facility will take in domestic waste collected from households and trade premises before sorting it and recovering various plastic polymer types. These will be further treated in chemical recycling plants.

"The recovered plastics... can be converted into higher-value products such as pyrolysis oil, which can serve as feedstock for Singapore's petrochemical sector to manufacture new plastics and chemicals," said the NEA.

The facility will also be able to recover suitable polyethylene terephthalate, a type of plastic commonly known as PET, which will be mechanically recycled.

The NEA said there is currently no local facility that recovers contaminated plastics from domestic waste.

Under the current system, recyclables are collected from blue National Recycling Programme bins at various locations across the island.

The new facility will tap a larger source of waste collected, such as from the green general waste bins in Housing Board estates, thereby reducing the amount of waste sent for incineration and to landfills, said the NEA.

The feasibility study on the facility will propose the technologies and equipment required to recover up to 72,000 tonnes of plastic waste a year for chemical recycling, among other things.

The study will, in addition, determine the cost-effectiveness for the facility to separate and recover non-plastic recyclables, such as paper, metals and glass, the NEA said.

The facility would be "a key enabler in closing the waste loop, especially for plastics", the agency said.

SINGAPORE (Reuters) - As countries around Southeast Asia struggle to cope with growing piles of plastic and other waste on land and in their waters, Singapore is one country in the region that appears to have things figured out.

Singapore's streets are glistening clean, its parks and beaches mostly free from the trash that plagues neighboring countries like Malaysia and Indonesia. Almost all of Singapore's non-recyclable waste is incinerated, with the ash and some solid waste shipped to a man-made island nearby that doubles as a nature reserve.

But that solution looks as if it is running short on time.

The tip on Semakau island was supposed to meet Singapore's dumping needs until as late as 2045, according to environment ministry documents. But with the use of disposable products growing at a rapid rate, the ministry's most recent estimates show that Semakau could be full a decade earlier.

Plastics was the largest category of waste disposed of in Singapore last year - 763,400 tonnes - according to data from the National Environment Agency (NEA). Only 6 percent of the 815,200 of plastic waste generated was recycled.

Analysis of the NEA data by Reuters shows that plastic waste per capita has increased nearly 20 percent over the last 15 years.

A report by the local Straits Times newspaper in March said each person in Singapore threw away an average of 13 bags a day in 2016.

So far, the government has not adopted any bans or charges on plastic bags or single-use plastic items like straws and plates. It has also not disclosed any plans to replace the Semakau dump.

"More needs to be done to prolong the life of Semakau landfill beyond 2035," the NEA said in an email when asked about plans for the dump.

The agency said that recycling initiatives had helped stabilize the amount of trash sent for incineration, despite increases in waste generation caused by population and economic growth.

HARDER LINE

Southeast Asia is home to four of the world's top marine plastic polluters, a trend some think will be exacerbated by last year's waste import ban in China, which used to be the world's top destination for recyclable trash.

The recent death of a pilot whale in Thailand with 80 pieces of plastic rubbish in its stomach has also drawn global attention to the problem.

Singapore, which plays host to the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations this year, is planning a special ministerial meeting on climate action in July.

But climate groups have urged the government of the wealthy city-state, which enjoys broad support from its electorate, to spend more political capital on tackling waste in a convenience culture where deliveries and take-out meals are common.

Singapore says it aims to become a "zero waste" nation, meaning it will eventually not send any waste to landfill. However, it has yet to set a date for achieving that goal.

The NEA said it was implementing initiatives aimed at increasing recycling rates and reducing waste at the source. These have included increasing the number of recycling bins and awareness campaigns.

It said Singapore was offering research grants for companies and organizations to develop sustainable waste management technologies, and planned to make it mandatory for large generators of packaging waste to report the types and quantities they use and their reduction plans by 2021.

The local recycling industry has yet to feel the pinch of China's waste ban, the NEA said, adding that for now it was still able to find overseas markets for recyclables.

Kim Stengert, chief communications officer for WWF Singapore, said the group would like to see Singapore adopt measures like mandatory charges for plastic bags or requiring firms to either pay for or participate in the collection and recycling of plastics.

Singapore's senior minister of state for the environment and water resources, Amy Khor, said in March that unlike other countries with mandatory plastic bag charges, Singapore incinerates plastic waste before putting it in landfills.

"We do not face the land and water pollution issues that plague those countries," she said. She added that plastic bags were "necessary for responsible and hygienic bagging of waste" in Singapore's hot and humid climate.

Neighboring Malaysia has said it aims to introduce a nationwide ban on plastic bags within a year, while some local authorities in the Philippines already regulate their use.

"There is no rubbish piling up in the streets, so Singaporeans don't perceive a waste problem or feel personally responsible to reduce waste," said Sonny Ben Rosenthal, an academic who specializes in environmental issues at Singapore's Nanyang Technological University.

Semakau Landfill is located about 8km south of Singapore. A 7km perimeter rock bund encloses part of the sea off Pulau Semakau and Pulau Sakeng to create the space for the landfill. The bund is lined with impermeable membrane and a layer of marine clay, ensuring that leachate from the refuse is contained in the landfill. Ancillary facilities were built to ensure that the landfill operation is self-sustainable.

Visits to the Semakau Landfill or one of the waste-to-energy plants can be arranged by sending us a request.

REDUCING AND RECYCLING OUR WASTE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE
We are producing an increasing amount of waste.

We have to cut down on the amount of waste we generate as we are running out of space to dispose of waste.

MINIMISING THE VOLUME OF WASTE DISPOSED
Singapore currently has only one active landfill. To conserve our limited landfill space, we incinerate as much waste as we can to reduce the volume going to the landfill. Through incineration, we can reduce the volume by as much as 90%.

Excess heat from Waste-to-Energy incineration plants provides about 2% of our electricity supply.

DISPOSE HAZARDOUS WASTE SAFELY
Many industries produce hazardous waste and generate by-products that pose health risks to both people and the environment.

Strict regulations are administered by NEA to ensure that such waste is properly managed.

Our Key Targets

1. Extend the lifespan of Semakau landfill.

2. Achieve 70% recycling rate by 2030.

Our Main Plans

Recycling

Space For Waste Will Run Out

Recycling is one way to minimise the amount of waste we create. Often, items are discarded without any thought to how they can be given a second life.

Singapore has only one landfill. Recycling is an important way of cutting down the amount of waste that goes into the landfill and reducing the cost of disposal.

The Challenge: Increasing Recycling Rate To 70% By 2030

We have had successes with certain waste streams, such as ferrous metals and construction and demolition materials, with near 100% recycling rates.

However, more can be done, particularly with increasing the recycling rates of our priority waste streams. Although awareness of recycling has improved among Singaporeans, the recycling rate remains low. The contamination of recyclables in collection bins adds further challenges. We will need everyone's collective efforts in order to achieve our recycling rate target.

Our Efforts

More than 80,000 blue recycling bins have been placed in HDB and landed estates across the island.Paper, plastic, glass and metal recyclables can be deposited into these bins. The mixed recyclables are collected by dedicated recycling trucks and sent to Materials Recovery Facilities for sorting. After sorting, the recyclable materials are sent to recycling facilities for further processing.

Since April 2018, all new non-landed private residential developments above four storeys are required to install dual chutes for refuse and recyclables. All condominiums have also been required to provide one recycling per block since August 2018.

We will continue to make recycling accessible to all residents.

Waste Collection

Waste Production Never Stops

In line with population and economic growth, the volume of waste produced has increased exponentially.

Without an efficient waste collection system in place, piles of rubbish would accumulate near homes and workplaces and create breeding grounds for pests and poses threats to public health.

The Challenge: Our Climate Cannot Tolerate Waste

Due to our hot and humid weather, organic waste rapidly decomposes and starts to smell unpleasant. On top of the discomfort, uncollected waste promotes the breeding of disease-carrying vectors, such as mosquitoes, in our environment.

To protect public health, waste generated has to be collected and disposed promptly and safely.

Our Efforts

Today, there are now 3 public waste collection companies operating in 6 sectors, serving households and trade premises. Rights to manage waste are competitively tendered by these companies.

In addition, there are more than 300 approved general waste collectors that serve commercial and industrial premises.

Incineration

The Challenge: Effective But Not A Sustainable Solution

Incineration Plants Cost Us Space And Money
Incineration converts waste to energy and reduces the volume of waste going to landfill. However, incineration plants are very expensive to build and operate. They also take up land space. We cannot keep building more incineration plants indefinitely.
Pollutants During Incineration
Pollutants, such as NOx, SO ₂, dioxins and particulate matter, are produced in the process of incineration and they affect our air quality.

Our Efforts: Improving Processes And Exploring New Uses

Tapping Private Sector Expertise
The Government increased private sector participation in the incineration industry. Singapore's fifth incineration plant was built and operated by a private company through a Design, Build, Own and Operate arrangement.
Treating Pollutants Before Release Into The Environment
All incinerators in Singapore have been fitted or built with pollution control equipment to protect our air quality. The flue gas produced during incineration is treated to remove most of the pollutants in order to meet safe environmental standards before being released into the air.
Reducing Waste
NEA has been encouraging people and industries to reduce their waste, reuse where possible and increase their rate of recycling.
Incinerating Less Than Before
The reduction of waste and increase in recycling will also help to delay the building of new incineration plants. Instead of building one every 5-7 years, we can build one every 8-10 years.
Ash May Be Recycled Instead Of Landfilled
After the success of developing the use of incinerated bottom ash (IBA) for road material, NEA is exploring other uses for treated ash so as to extend the lifespan of our sole remaining landfill, Semakau.

Landfill

Limited Space For Our Growing Amount Of Waste

As there is no available land for landfill on mainland Singapore, Semakau Landfill had to be created by enclosing 350 hectares of sea space between two offshore islands. Semakau Landfill opened on 1 April 1999 and is now the only one we have.

At current waste generation rates, Semakau Landfill will run out of space by around 2035.

The Challenge: Building Landfills Is Not A Sustainable Solution

Landfills require space. We have already used up large tracts of land on mainland Singapore, in various areas such as Choa Chu Kang, Lim Chu Kang and Lorong Halus.

The Semakau Landfill had to be constructed out of sea space due to our land constraints. It is difficult for Singapore to continually build landfills to handle our growing amount of waste. We need to look for more sustainable solutions to handle our waste.

Our Efforts: Minimising The Amount Of Waste That Goes To The Landfill

The Zero Waste Masterplan sets a new waste reduction target for Singapore - to reduce the waste sent to Semakau Landfill each day by 30 per cent by 2030. This will help extend Semakau Landfill's lifespan beyond 2035.
Reduce Volume Of Waste By Incineration
Incinerable waste is sent to our four incineration plants, and the ashes end up at Semakau landfill.

Incineration can reduce waste volume by over 90%!

The excess heat energy produced contributes to about 3% of our electricity supply.
Prolonged Lifespan of Semakau Landfill
Through recycling and other waste minimisation efforts, we are progressively lengthening the lifespan of our last landfill.
