Description of Project Activity | This project aims to introduce the Mechanical sorting and Biological Treatment (MBT) for the waste which is currently disposed at landfill site in the three target cities, namely, Da Nang city, Hai Phong city, and Bac Ninh city. Mechanical sorting is to collect recyclables efficiently and to promote 3R of waste, while “biological treatment process” is to stabilize the waste through high-speed aerobic digestion of organic matters. The aerobic digestion prevents waste from being degraded under the anaerobic condition which generates methane gas, and thus contribute to the GHG emission reduction. |

Duration of Project Activity/ Crediting Period | 2009-2015 (7 years)/2009-2015 (7 years) |
Baseline Methodology/ Additionality | Baseline Methodology This project applies the approved methodology AM0025 ”Avoided emissions from organic waste through alternative waste treatment processes (version 10)”. The following scenario was identified as baseline scenario for this project: - Disposal of waste at a landfill without the capture of landfill gas (Continuation of current situation) Demonstration of Additionality Additionality of the project was demonstrated and assessed in accordance with the “Tool for the demonstration and assessment of additionality”. The investment analysis using the bench mark analysis method revealed that the project IRR is negative, and thus the project is economically unattractive, without the income from CER sales. Common practice analysis also discovered that the proposed project is unlikely implemented without CDM scheme. Hence, the proposed project activity is additional. |
Estimation of GHG Emission Reductions | Based on the assumption obtained through the survey, the GHG emission reduction throughout the crediting period (7 years) was estimated as follows; Da Nang City: 460,720 tCO2e, Hai Phong City: 252,360 tCO2e, and Bac Ninh City: 96,440 tCO2e |
Monitoring Methodology | Monitoring methodology, AM0025 ”Avoided emissions from organic waste through alternative waste treatment processes will be applied in the project. Major data and parameters to be monitored are as follows;

Environmental Impact Analysis | According to the Vietnamese laws on Environmental Impact Analysis (EIA) system, the proposed project falls under the “reprocessing and treatment facility for municipal solid waste” which is covered by the EIA system, hence, the project is obligated to conduct EIA and prepare EIA Report in accordance with the law. Negative impacts on environment that may occur during construction and operation include as follows; < Construction>

Issues and Tasks for Project Realisation | As a result of financial analysis, it was concluded that the only the project in Da Nang City can be financially viable and economically attractive. The project in Hai Phong and in Bac Ninh, on the other hand, has very low potential to be feasible under the current condition. Therefore, the next step will be the further preparation to implement the project in Da Nang City, including the establishment of SPC. It is also needed to proceed the CDM procedures, including validation, getting approval from the government, and |
