  4. ข้อตกลงด้านการค้าและสิ่งแวดล้อมข้อตกลงด้านการค้าและสิ่งแวดล้อม • หลักการ/ความตกลงเกี่ยวกับการค้าและสิ่งแวดล้อมภายใต้ WTO (Non-Tariff Measures) • หลักการภายใต้ความตกลงGATT 1994 • ความตกลงรอบอุรุกวัย เช่น TBT, Subsidies, etc • ความตกลงพหุภาคีด้านสิ่งแวดล้อม(MEAs) • อนุสัญญา/พิธีสารด้านสิ่งแวดล้อม เช่นMontreal,Basel, Kyoto, etc. • มาตรการด้านสิ่งแวดล้อมของประเทศคู่ค้า โดยเฉพาะประเทศที่พัฒนาแล้ว เช่น EU, Japan, USA

  5. EU Environmental Policy Development 1967-2000 Source: www.euractiv.com

  6. EU Take-back Law อุตสาหกรรมเครื่องใช้ไฟฟ้า/อิเลคทรอนิคส์ (WEEE)หลักการ: Producer Responsibility (ผู้ผลิตและผู้นำเข้า รับผิดชอบ ซากของผลิตภัณฑ์ที่หมดอายุการใช้งาน) และ EU จะตั้งระบบ Separate, Collect, Reuse/recycle, Treatment • Oct 2540: Working paper on management of WEEE (EC DG XI) • Apr 2541: first version of EU directive on WEEE • July 2541: second draft of EU directive on WEEE • July, May, June 2543: third, fourth and final draft of EU directive on WEEE • Oct 2545: EU passed the WEEE & RoHS Directives • Jan 2546: EU commission passed both Directives with consensus vote • Feb 2546: Official declaration of both Directives • ****** Effective date of EU directive on WEEE & RoHS ******* • - Aug 2547: Each country member (EU) must issue the law according to the Directives • - Aug 2548:ผู้ผลิตและผู้นำเข้า รับผิดชอบ ซากของผลิตภัณฑ์ที่หมดอายุการใช้งาน • - July 2549:ใช้สารทดแทนPb, Hg, Cd, Cr6, Halogenated substance • (CFCs, PCBs, PVC)และBrominated flame retardant • - Dec 2549: Recycle / reuse rate50-75% ของน้ำหนักของผลิตภัณฑ์ ทิศทางในอนาคต

  7. (ร่าง) สมุดปกเขียวว่าด้วยนโยบายผลิตภัณฑ์ครบวงจร (Green Paper on Integrated Product Policy: IPP) • ริเริ่มโดย EU ปี 2540 • ผ่านประชาพิจารณ์ 30 Jun 2543 จะพัฒนาเป็น Directive ต่อไป 1) ขอบเขตของสินค้า: ครอบคลุมสินค้าทุกชนิด รวมทั้ง การบริการ 2) การใช้กลไกราคา: ช่วยสินค้าที่เป็นมิตรต่อสิ่งแวดล้อม • Low VAT for European Eco-label • นโยบายเงินอุดหนุนโดยรัฐเพื่อคุ้มครองสภาวะแวดล้อม • ภาษีพิเศษสำหรับการคุ้มครองสภาวะแวดล้อม • ให้ผู้ผลิตเป็นผู้รับภาระ (Take back law) • ใช้หลักผู้ก่อมลพิษเป็นผู้จ่าย (Polluter Pay Principle: PPP)

  8. สาระสำคัญของร่าง Green Paper on IPP (ต่อ) 3) กระตุ้นความต้องการ Eco-Product • มาตรการ Eco-label: ต้องติดฉลากให้ข้อมูลผู้บริโภค 4) การจัดซื้อภาครัฐ (Public Procurement) • EU จะจัดทำ Handbook on Green Public Procurement 5) มาตรการเกี่ยวกับผู้ผลิตสินค้า (Supply Side) • ให้ข้อมูลผลกระทบของสินค้าต่อสิ่งแวดล้อมตลอดช่วงวงจรอายุ • ทำฐานข้อมูล Life cycle inventories/ ทำขั้นตอน Life cycle analysis • ให้มีเครื่องมือสำหรับตรวจผลกระทบสิ่งแวดล้อมให้ผู้ผลิต SME • กำหนดระเบียบหรือส่งเสริมผู้ผลิตให้ข้อมูลสินค้าแก่ผู้บริโภค • กำหนดแนวทางการออกแบบสินค้าที่ไม่เป็นภัยต่อสิ่งแวดล้อม • EU จะกำหนดแนวทางส่งเสริม Ecodesign

  9. มาตรการด้านสิ่งแวดล้อมของEUมาตรการด้านสิ่งแวดล้อมของEU WEEE & RoHS Directive • หลักการสำคัญในการ • กำหนดนโยบายสิ่งแวดล้อม • Precautionary principle • Polluter pay • Producer responsibility Directive on design EEE EuP Directive สมุดปกเขียว IPP White paper on chemical ฯลฯ

  10. Japanese Recycling Law Four Products to be recycled (started from 2543): (Producer & Consumer’s Responsibility) • TV • Air Conditioner • Refrigerator • Washing Machine Recycle Society Manufacturers set up Recycling Facilities all over Japan

  11. History of LCA (1) Oil Crisis Toxicants Global themes Packaging Consumer goods auto parts recycling systems Energy 8-10 Emissions 20-30 Parameters over 500 Parameters (Ursula Tischner et al., 2000)

  12. History of LCA (2) • 1960s and 70s • Early energy analyses broadened to develop the Resource and Environmental Profile Analysis (REPA) - a quantitative methodology that formed the beginnings of life-cycle assessment (LCA). • 1980s • Little public interest in LCAs. However, work on product LCA methodologies and frameworks continued on a small scale. www.ec.gc.ca/ecocycle

  13. History of LCA (3) • 1990 to 1994 • Industry, government and academic interest in LCAs revived on an international scale. SETAC workshops were held to further develop LCA methodologies and practices. • Present • Life-cycle concepts are now being used, both in quantitative LCAs, and in design, policy and regulatory decision-making. www.ec.gc.ca/ecocycle

  14. วงจรชีวิตสินค้า -Product Life Cycle From cradle to grave • Impacts on • Human health • Ecosystems • Resources

  15. Life Cycle Assessment: LCA • Method to evaluate Industrial Products/Technologies/Service on the Life Cycle, from Cradle to Grave • Inventory Analysis Calculation of Emissions(Output) and Consumption of Resources(Input) • Impact Assessment Evaluation of the significance of potential environmental impacts • Depends on the goal and scope

  16. ISO-14040 Life cycle assessment framework Goal and scope definition interpretation Direct applications: -Product development and improvement -Strategic planning -Public policy making -Marketing -Other inventory analysis Impact assessment Phases of a LCA

  17. Strengths of LCA.. • Covers the whole life cycle • Calculates potential environmental impacts • Compare different I/O on the same scale (PE) • Better basis for prioritisation between environmental impacts at the “site” but also between stages in the product life cycle • Basis for Prod.- Oriented EMS • Basis for greener design (DfE) • Basis for Cleaner production (e.g. eco-labelling - type III) (Ursula Tischner et al., 2000)

  18. Weaknesses.. • Here and now assessment • Time consuming • Data are difficult to find • Studies are often difficult to interpret • Studies are often not transparent • Does not pay back here and now (Ursula Tischner et al., 2000)

  19. Introduction to EcoDesign • Product Designเป็นตัวบ่งชี้ที่สำคัญ เกี่ยวกับ ความสามารถในการแข่งขัน ของผู้ผลิต • National Research Council, USA: ประมาณการว่า 70% or more of the costs of product development, manufacture and useถูกกำหนดตั้งแต่ช่วงinitial design stages • Bad designนำไปสู่inefficient use ofresourcesและexcessive waste • Trade Barriersโดยใช้ประเด็นทางสิ่งแวดล้อมมีมาก(packaging / hazardous substances / product recyclability etc.)

  20. Better Resource Management Waste Prevention เป้าหมาย 2 อย่าง ของ EcoDesign พยายามให้ง่ายต่อ: Re-manufacturing รีไซเคิล การทำปุ๋ย/ ใช้ Energy recovering ลด : น้ำหนัก ความเป็นพิษ พลังงาน ยืด : อายุการใช้งาน

  21. Four types of EcoDesign Factor 20 type 4: system innovation type 3: concept innovation type 2: redesign innovation 10 type 1: product improvement Eco-efficiency improvement 5 2 Time (years) From paper to e-mail or “call a car” Information technology Examples: (Han Brezet, Delft University, NL 1997)

  22. before after (redesigned with EcoDesign concept) Example: EcoDesign of a HP Computer Workstation Savings • 70% housing parts • 95% screw joints • 50% assembly time • 90% disassembly time • 90% recyclable

  23. Dishwasher Example: Ecodesign of a dishwasher “If every dishwasher in current usein Australia was replaced by the new Dishlex Global 500, we could save approximately 10.5 billion litres of water - and 700,000 tonnes ofcarbon dioxide - per annum.” • Save energy consumption, by using only 256 kWh(Six-star energy rating) • Save water usage (less than 18 L for a full load) • Greater material efficiencies(7.5 Kg lighter than previous models) • Easier disassembly for end-of-life recycling Ref: CFD, RMIT

  24. ความสัมพันธ์ระหว่างLCA & EcoDesign 4 stages of Process/ Product Improvement 1. Goal & Scope Definition.. 2. Inventory Analysis ……… 3. Impact Analysis ……….… 4. Improvement Analysis ……. Ecodesign LCA

  25. Integrating the life-cycle concept in the development process Development Pre-study Concept development Product development Market introduction New technology, Market needs, Ideas, Trends Research Life-Cycle Thinking & Screening: - Critical factors etc • Life-Cycle Assessment: • LCA on selected concepts • Documentation etc

  26. Applications of LCA Industry Eco-Design Marketing Eco-Products Improvement Type-III Process improvement (ex.Recycle process) Self assertion Comparative assertion LCA Env. Label Env. report EMS Env. administration(ex.Support for recycle) Env. education Consumption           (Consumer’s mind) Economic & Social Administration Green purchasing Society Dr.Inaba (July 2003)
