Summary The Climate and Clean Air Coalition Municipal Solid Waste Initiative (CCAC-MSWI) aims to assist cities in improving their municipal solid waste management systems to reduce Short Lived Climate Pollutants (SLCP) such as methane (produced by the decomposition of organic matter in landfills) and black carbon (produced by open burning of waste). This is accomplished through a multi-step process. Cities initially undergo a rapid city assessment supplying baseline data on the current solid waste management situation in the city. This then leads to the creation of an action plan illustrating the gaps found and suggesting ways forward. Following this, cities undertake the creation of a work plan which builds on the action plan and details the work required to improve the efficiency of solid waste management and reduce short lived climate pollutants. In parallel to this, recipient cities have the opportunity to undertake city exchanges with mentor cities to deepen their knowledge and have first-hand experience of effectively run solid waste management.
Cebu City is the second largest growth centre in the Philippines with a population of one million. It is the main domestic shipping port of the Philippines as well as being a centre of trade and commerce in Visayas. The city has been growing rapidly in recent years leading to significant issues with its solid waste management. The city has had some success in implementing community level activities such as segregation at source and trash to cash (recyclable waste is converted into products such as lampshades, handbags and so on then sold) but is yet to manage to implement city-wide activities. In addition to this, the city lacks a sustainable final disposal facility. The current landfill was originally constructed in 1998 with the assistance of JICA, but was designed with the use of an incinerator which was subsequently banned under the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 of the Philippines (also known as Republic Act 9003 or RA 9003). The city has had difficulties in using the landfill properly since. It became a controlled dumpsite prior to its closure due to a fire in 2012. Solid waste is now transported to an alternative site in a neighbouring city at considerable expense. Facing these issues, Cebu City has been reaching out for international assistance and joined CCAC MSWI as it saw the opportunity to improve its solid waste management.
Kitakyushu City is well known in Japan for being the birthplace of the industrialisation of the country through the establishment of the nations first steel works in 1901. Following this, the city was one of the industrial powerhouses of Japan throughout the twentieth century. However, rapid economic growth, particularly during the post-war period, meant that the city became equally famous for its severe pollution problems. Following grassroots movements by the local citizenry, and in collaboration with the local government and the private sector, Kitakyushu City overcame the pollution and became famous as an environmentally friendly city within Japan. Starting in the 1980s, Kitakyushu City turned its attention to assisting other Asian cities across the continent in improving their environmental management. As a part of these efforts, Kitakyushu City has been working with Cebu City for a number of years, mainly focusing on solid waste management issues. The city was therefore pleased to join CCAC MSWI as a mentor city and support the coalition in its vital work.
In line with the above, the City to City Exchange between Cebu City and Kitakyushu City took place between the 15th and 20th November 2015 in Kitakyushu City, Japan with 9 participants. The purpose of the city exchange was to deepen the knowledge of Cebu City regarding municipal solid waste management in order to inform their work plan under the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) Municipal Solid Waste Initiative (MSWI) which in turn will be integrated into the citys Municipal Solid Waste Management Plan mandated under RA 9003. The visit was also an opportunity to further deepen the ties between Kitakyushu City and Cebu City which have been increasing in recent years
5
due to the on-going collaboration between the cities in environmental projects, particularly solid waste management projects.
Under the work plan component of CCAC MSWI, Cebu City aims to plan and implement strategic actions to reduce Short-Lived Carbon Pollutants (SLCP) from Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) by introducing waste separation at source and collection, the promotion of composting for organic waste recycling, landfill improvement and building partnerships with citizen and the private sector for implementing an integrated solid waste management system. Aiming to help Cebu City in developing a practical work plan and implement the above activities effectively in two model barangays (Barangay Kalunasan and Barangay Talamban), the city exchange was organised to share experience, lessons learnt and technical assistance between Cebu City and Kitakyushu City. The experience of Kitakyushu City, a leading environmental model cities in Japan, in modernising its MSWM and environmental conditions through building partnership with public, private and civil society sectors provided valuable lessons and technical inputs for Cebu City to achieve its targets. The exchange encompassed all aspects of the waste pipe: waste segregation and collection; recycling (from plastic bottles to household appliances and vehicles); composting; final disposal (both waste-to-energy and sanitary landfill); and also environmental education. In order to effectively take advantage of the Seminar for Eco-Town Managers which has been running since 2008 in Kitakyushu City, the study visit used the UNIDO seminar as a base whilst also adding in additional site visits as appropriate to meet the particular aims of CCAC MSWI within the Philippine context. This enabled the study visit to achieve cost savings, enabling more Philippine participants to attend.
On the last day of the programme the study tour group gathered together with IGES staff to discuss what they had learned on the study tour and how they planned to implement lessons learned in practical activities.
Following the city to city exchange, the two barangays will commence work with the support of the local government and IGES in implementing the proposed activities. Work will take place during 2016, with IGES regularly visiting to provide further advice and guidance. IGES will also work with the national government of the Philippines, through the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (DENR) in order to increase awareness of the work of CCAC and integrate SLCP plans into MSWI nationwide.

Concept Note and Schedule Development of Work Plan for Reducing the Short-Lived Carbon Pollutants from Municipal Solid Waste Management in Cebu City, Philippines
Objective Cebu City, one of the fast growing cities in the Philippines, has been involved in the planning and implementation of strategic actions to reduce Short-Lived Carbon Pollutants (SLCP) from Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) by introducing waste separation at source and collection, the promotion of composting for organic waste recycling, landfill improvement and building partnerships with citizen and the private sector for implementing an integrated solid waste management system under the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) Municipal Solid Waste Initiative (MSWI). Aiming to help Cebu City in developing a practical work plan and implement the above activities effectively in two model barangays (Barangay Kalunasan and Barangay Talamban), a city exchange will be organised to share experience, lessons learnt and technical assistance between Cebu City and Kitakyushu City. The experience of Kitakyushu City, a leading environmental model cities in Japan, in modernising its MSWM and environmental conditions through building partnership with public, private and civil society sectors can provide valuable lessons and technical inputs for Cebu City to achieve its targets.
Participants The exchange visit aims to invite participants from Cebu City including the representatives from senior policy makers, members of the Cebu City Solid Waste Management Board (CCSWMB), and model barangays. In addition, two senior officials of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Manila will also be invited to join the team due to their role as the national focal point of the CCAC-MSWI in the Philippines.

Proceedings Monday 16th November Welcoming Remarks The study visit officially commenced with opening remarks by Mr. Kazuhiko Kobayashi, Chief Executive, Environment Bureau, Kitakyushu City. Mr. Kobayashi warmly welcomed the participants of the city exchange programme together with the participants of the Seminar for Eco-Town Managers, another training programme in Kitakyushu City being run at the same time and in conjunction with the city exchange. Mr. Kobayashi observed that the history of Kitakyushu City is a rich source of knowledge for the rapidly industrialising cities of Asia and demonstrates the benefits of low carbon green growth. Further cooperation with Asian cities is desired as Kitakyushu City looks to implement a green growth strategy in line with the outputs from its membership of the OECD Green Growth programme alongside Paris, Chicago and Stockholm.
Opening Remarks Representatives from UNIDO then gave further introductory remarks. UNIDO also warmly welcomed all of the participants to Kitakyushu and thanked them for their attendance. This is the final year of the second phase of the Memorandum of Understanding which was signed between Kitakyushu City and UNIDO. UNIDO was pleased to announce that there are on-going discussions for a third phase of the programme and both sides are optimistic for an agreement to continue the programme. The Seminar for Eco-Town Managers is an important output of the programme and UNIDO thanks Kitakyushu City for their continued support. The purpose of UNIDO is to promote inclusive sustainable development and Kitakyushu City is an excellent example of this. The seminar therefore promotes the mandate of UNIDO as well as deepening the relationship between UNIDO and Kitakyushu City. UNIDO is particularly pleased that the seminar can be integrated into the study tour being conducted under the CCAC MSWI programme due to the common aim of sustainable waste management and warmly welcomed the participants once again.
Lecture: Waste Management of Kitakyushu (I: Municipal Waste) Waste Management in Kitakyushu City was presented by Mr. Shinsuke Takeuchi, International Environmental Strategies Division, Environment Bureau, Kitakyushu City. The waste management stream in Kitakyushu City comprises household waste, business waste, municipal sewage sludge and waste from 3 small neighbouring cities. The vast majority of the waste is incinerated and then disposed in a landfill. There is no organic waste landfill. The remaining waste is recycled. Business waste is handled by the private sector, with the local government being responsible for other waste streams.
Domestic waste is segregated at source with the city arranging collection on different days for different types of waste which are placed into different coloured plastic bags. The local government encourages waste segregation through supplying waste bags for recyclables at a cheaper price. Waste not correctly segregated is not collected. Cans and bottles are recycled at two centres within the city which employ mental handicapped workers as a form of welfare. Paper recycling is undertaken through community activity which is subsidised by the local government. The full presentation can be found in the annex.
Lecture: Waste Management of Kitakyushu (II: Industrial Waste) Waste Management Administration in the City of Kitakyushu was presented by Mr. Daisuke Watanabe, Office for Industrial Waste Management, Control and Inspection Department, Environment Bureau, Kitakyushu City. Kitakyushu was previously notorious within Japan for the
11
pollution caused by its heavy industry but through substantial efforts has managed to successfully transfer to clean industry and overcome its pollution problems. Industrial waste is generated from each step of manufacturing, processing products and treating exhaust gas and wastewater. It is necessary to reconsider the raw materials used, and the process, machines and equipment in order to reduce the amount of industrial waste. Currently in Kitakyushu City the majority of the emissions are caused by sludge whereas in terms of generation slag and sludge combine to be the majority of waste generated. Large amounts of industrial waste can be recycled. Nevertheless, illegal dumping remains an issue in Kitakyushu, nevertheless through rigorous enforcement the number of discovered incidents has halved since the peak in 2004.
Under Japanese law there are 20 different types of industrial waste categorised. Responsibility for disposal lies with the business that discharges the waste, with specific technologies often needed to dispose of the waste safely. Generally speaking, flowing generation or emission, the waste is treated in an intermediary treatment stage prior to final disposal or re-utilisation. This process is effectively monitored through a clear legal framework and licensing. Punishments for violation are severe and businesses are subject to inspection at any time. The city also conducts regular patrols to uncover illegal dumping. The full presentation can be found in the annex.
Site Visit: Kitakyushu Eco-Town Eco-town Center On arrival the participants were given a brief overview of the Eco-Town. The Eco-Town was established in 1997 and functions as an eco-industrial park. Local businesses focused on environmentally practices are able to work together effectively through finding efficiencies (i.e. one companys outputs are anothers inputs). Research is also supported in order to further improve technology and identify market gaps.
Automotive recycling (West Japan Auto Recycle Co., Ltd. (WARC)) Participants were given a guided tour of the factory with the guide giving the following information during the tour. West Japan Auto Recycle Co., Ltd (WARC) started business in January 2000. It currently has 24 employees and has grown from a capacity of 1,000 cars/month initially to a maximum capacity now of 3,000 cars/month. The company aims to maximise material recycling through the optimum collection and re-use of parts and recycling of metal, plastic and glass parts. It also protects environments through proper dismantling and careful removal of hazardous items. The company further avoids the use of shredders. The company is also a store of second hand parts of a variety of ages and makes (predominantly Japanese, but also with some foreign makes). Participants were guided through the warehouse floor, where they were able to witness the step by step dismantling. Parts are removed from the cars step by step until finally the leftover shell is crushed as scrap metal.
Electric home appliances recycling (Nishinihon Kaden Recycle) Nishinihon Kaden Recycle (NKRC) started operations at the Eco-Town in April 2000. The business specialises in recycling four types of home appliances: TV sets, washing machines, air conditioners and refrigerators/freezers. The plant currently is able to processes 180 tonnes per day, which equates to approximately 1 million TV sets per year. The technology within the company is advanced, with a dedicated processing line for each of the four types of household appliances. The plant combines advanced tools with manual dismantling alongside IT run real time production control systems. The plant also has unique CFC plasma decomposition equipment which makes CFC harmless through decomposition at 10,000c. The materials recovered are used in a variety of ways from automobiles and construction back to use as home appliances. The participants undertook a tour of the facilities with guides.
12
Fluorescent tube recycling (J-Relights) Outline of Fluorescent Tube Recycling Process was presented by J. Relights. J. Relights was started in May, 2000 and is a used fluorescent tube and dry cell recycling business, recycling 18.3 tonnes and 5.6 tonnes per day respectively. The company serves a variety of customers from local government, corporations, small to medium sized companies, homes and schools. Their market area is not just Kitakyushu City, but covers much of Kyushu and parts of western Japan. The recycling process for fluorescent tubes is complex with immense care being needed at each stage. Due to the dangers of the poisonous materials in the tubes, tubes need to be carefully washed and separated, with a ventilation system also installed. Broken tubes cannot be recycled. Five types of recycled raw materials are produced glass cullet, aluminium, steel, phosphors, mercury. New fluorescent tubes are now being produced and have been certified as eco-premium products in Kitakyushu City. J. Relights is also involved in rare earth recycling. The full presentation can be found in the annex.
Composting (Merry Corporation) Introduction of Food Waste Recycling from Business Activities in Kitakyushu City was presented by Merry Corporation. Japan currently has a food self-sufficiency rate of 39% with low rates of food waste recycling, particularly domestic food waste. Under recent initiatives, the Government of Japan is aiming promote food recycling in an integrated manner in order to improve the self-sufficiency rate. Merry Corporation has therefore established its composting facilities and business with these aims in mind. Its composting technique comprises three stages reduction then fermentation at 60c and 40c with the total time being 2 months. Composting reduces the volume of waste by 96% with 365 tonnes/year being received leading to a final production of 10 tonnes/year. The company has also contributed to the creation of recycling loops. For example, Merry Corporation has supported the composting of food waste from restaurants being used as fertiliser for crops which are then consumed in the same restaurants. The company has further been involved in local environmental education in schools and hopes to see the further expansion of its business model. The full presentation can be found in the annex.

Tuesday 17th November Lecture: Takakura Composting About Takakura Method An Organic Waste Composting Technique was presented by Ms. Sakaya Yaoya, JPec Co., Ltd., Wakamatsu Environment Research Institute. Takakura Composting is a simple and effective aerobic method for managing organic waste, especially in developing countries where a majority of the waste is frequently organic. It is a flexible technique based on using microbes, base materials and containers which are readily available in any context. It is aerobic as aerobic methods are easier to control with less risk of failure than anaerobic methods.
There are three different types of microorganism used at the different stages of composting bacteria, mould and fungi (found in fermented foods); actinomycetes (found in leaf soil); basidiomycetes (found in mushrooms). Fermentative microorganisms should be cultivated in a sugar water solution, whereas microorganisms found in fruits and vegetables should be cultivated in a salt water solution. This solution should be mixed well with the base material used for composting. Water content should be between 40 60%. Too little water will lead to slow decomposition, whereas too much will lead to odours being produced. The full presentation can be found in the annex.
Ms. Yaoya then gave the group a hands on demonstration for the creation of the two types of water solution, searching for and finding appropriate fungi in the natural surroundings as well as how to create base material and properly look after it. Ms. Yaoya is planning to travel to Cebu City during early 2016 and will be able to give hands on advice in person.
Site Visit: Hiagari Sewage Treatment Plant and Hiagari Sludge Palletization Center Hiagari Sewage Treatment Plant and Sludge Palletization Center are established on the same site. The site also functions as a visitor centre. The centres learning floor is dedicated to disseminating knowledge concerning Kitakyushus water management techniques. There are a variety of exhibits, many of which were interactive. Participants were particularly interested in the exhibit demonstrating Kitakyushus drainage technology which is able to ensure cope with large volumes of rainfall per hour. The participants then enjoyed seeing the state-of-the-art technologies being produced by local companies. A tour was then taken of the facilities where participants learned about the desalination system which combines both desalination and sewage water membrane treatment. The sludge palletization center was also visited. The centre produces about 20 tonnes of fuel per day from 70 tonnes of sewage. The fuel is sold to thermal plants within the city.
Lecture: Eco Town Concept in Kitakyushu The Concept of Eco-Town by Mr. Meiji Sato, Eco-town Office, Nippon Steel & Sumikin Technology Co., Ltd. Kitakyushu City experienced rapid growth as an industrial centre of Japan, but suffered tremendous environmental damage. Following its success in not only reversing the damage, but becoming a model environmental city in Japan, Kitakyushu City has sought to assist Asia through various international cooperative projects. Kitakyushu City has established an Eco-Model City Action Plan whereby the city aims to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% citywide by 2050 and assist in the reduction of emissions by 150% through collaboration in Asia.
As a part of these efforts, the Eco-Town was established in 1997 with the support of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of the Environment, Japan. There are 26 eco-towns in Japan as of 2006, Kitakyushu City being the largest. The eco-town aims to both support businesses by placing environmentally focused businesses in close proximity to each other so that they can mutually benefit (for example by using one companys outputs as anothers inputs) as well as supporting local research hubs to further improve local recycling technology and create opportunities for new
16
businesses. The Eco-Town further assists West Japan as a whole by accepting waste from all over Kyushu island as well as parts of Honshu island. The full presentation can be found in the annex.
Site Visit: Meeting with Nippon Magnetic Dressing (NDM) Senior members of the Philippine team - Ms. Nida Cabrera, Mr. Albert Altarejos Magalang and Ms. Raquel Smith visited the Head Office of the Nippon Magnetic Dressing Co. Ltd (NMD) in Kitakyushu. The meeting focused on the on-going bilateral support for establishing a business model for managing e-waste in Cebu City. NMD, one of the pioneer e-waste recycling companies in Kitakyushu City incollaboration with the Kitakyushu Asian Centre for Low Carbon Society, NTT Data Institute ofManagement Consulting and the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) under thefinancial assistance of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) in Japan has providedtechnical support to establish the e-waste collection and recycling system in Cebu based on theexperience of Kitakyushu City. Both parties discussed the progress so far in developing the draft bylawfor e-waste management and establishment of model collection systems at shopping malls. Inaddition, the potential of establishing an e-waste collection system in two model barangays selectedunder CCAC-MSWI using the waste separation and MRF at the barangays was discussed.
Official Meeting with the Hon. Mayor of Kitakyushu Hon. Mayor of Kitakyushu City, Mr. Kenji Kitahashi, warmly welcomed the participants from the City of Cebu. On behalf of Cebu City, Ms. Nida Cabrera thanked the Hon. Mayor and the City of Kitakyushu for all its support for improving the solid waste management system in Cebu. She said that Cebu City can learn lot from Kitakyushu, one of the leading environmental model cities in Japan. Like many other major cities in Japan, Kitakyushu has developed as an industrial city while supporting the economic growth of the country. At the same time, the city experienced air pollution and severe water contamination. However, through the efforts of city government in partnership with its citizens, academic and private sector, Kitakyushu overcame its environmental pollution so successfully that it was even praised around the world for transforming from a grey city to a green city. The Mayor of Kitakyushu City also took this opportunity to acknowledge Cebu City for giving Mayors Special Award in its 78th Cebu City Charter Day. The Mayor of Kitakyushu City further committed to provide technical assistance as a mentor city of CCAC-MSWI to improve the solid waste management and environmental pollution in Cebu City. Finally, both parties exchanged souvenirs and agreed to continue the city-to-city cooperation.

Wednesday 18th November Site Visit: Observation of Garbage Collection Sites The participants were taken to garbage collection sites in the Yahata Higashi Ward area. Garbage collection sites are widespread in Kitakyushu and are easily found within given residential areas and do not require more than a short walk. Participants were shown how residents leave out their garbage in the appropriate bag and area on the appropriate day. Garbage collectors demonstrated how bags are checked for correct separation prior to being load into the garbage truck. Bags containing waste which had been incorrectly separated were pointed out and labels stuck to them as a reminder. Garbage collectors operate a strict no segregation, no collection policy. Although there are occasional problems with waste being incorrectly separated, local residents are usually good at enforcing correct segregation amongst themselves.
Site Visit: Kitakyushu Environment Museum The Kitakyushu Environment Museum has been established as Kitakyushu Citys environmental learning and community centre. The centre is conceived as three environmental centres in one an environmental learning centre, information centre and activity centre, not only supplying learning and capacity building opportunities but also functioning as a community space for events. The museum is split into five zones and a prologue. The prologue describes the natural beauty of the Kitakyushu area and scenic spots. The five zones entitled The Development of Kitakyushu; Overcoming Pollution; The Environment and Us; Green Technology and Eco-Friendly Living; Future City take the visitor through the full history of the city. Many of the exhibits are hands on and interactive, making an engaging and memorable visit. The participants were also impressed by the Environmental Learning Supporters who are volunteers in assisting the visitors in learning about the previous environmental problems and also the 3Rs. Participants particularly enjoyed making simple crafts with the volunteers using recycled trash.
The museum is also itself constructed using a variety of environmental techniques including the use of scrap construction materials for the wooden floors, climbing vines which help reduce the heat in the museum via transpiration, a small wind power turbine, rainwater harvesting and also an eco-house which is a model house demonstrating a variety of eco-friendly technologies ensuring that it creates no environmental burden.
Site Visit: Nishihara Corporation Welcome to Nishihara was delivered by Mr. Koichiro Eguchi, Nishihara Corp. The establishment of truly professional, service oriented private Japanese companies in the waste management industry is a relatively recent phenomenon. Nishihara Corp. is a well-established local company which has also branched out into establishing business in Surabaya, Indonesia. Surabaya is a city of around 3m people and the second city of Indonesia. Waste collection is currently very inefficient, with many small depo stations being manned by thousands of waste pickers working in poor conditions. Nishihara Corp. established a SuperDepo to take advantage of efficiencies of scale and provide the waste pickers with more formalised work. The SuperDepo has been successful and has now been transferred over to the city. Nishihara has also established a large scale composting centre using windrow technology, creating compost in 20 30 days. Nishihara Corp. is planning to further scale up its activities through the establishment of an Eco Park which would not only process waste but also serve as an environmental education centre. The full presentation can be found in the annex.
Following the presentation, the participants were taken for a tour of the Nishihara Recycling Depo which specialises in plastic bottle recycling. The depo is well organised and separates out the plastic bottles through a combination of machine and manual sorting before sale to other plastic recyclers.

Site Visit: Shin-Moji Incineration Plant Refuse Treatment at City of Kitakyushu was presented by Mr. Yuji Tsutsumi. The Shinmoji Incineration Plant was constructed between 2003 2007 with a capacity of 720 tonnes per day through three 240 tonne incinerators. The incinerator is a gasification and melting type, was constructed by Nippon Steel Engineering Co. Ltd. at a cost of JPY22.9bn. Garbage is sent through a complex process whereby it is gasified in a melting furnace, with the gas produced being used to generate electricity. The non-gasified materials are further separated into metal (around 1% of the garbage received) and slag (around 10% of the garbage received). The slag is used in construction for the creation of blocks, walls, bollards and manholes, amongst others. The gas produced powers the steam turbine on site which has a maximum output of 23,500 kwh/h. The electricity generated powers the site (approximately 44%) with the remaining electricity being sold to the market. This income is beneficial, but does not cover the cost of running the site. Gas vented from the plant is carefully monitored and check to ensure compliance with national standards. The full presentation can be found in the annex.

Thursday 19th November Site Visit: Eastern (Fushitani) Landfill Site Tobu Landfill Outline was presented by Mr. Shunichi Muroi, Chief Official, Tobu Landfill Administration Office, Fukuoka City Environmental Bureau Facilities Department. In the 1970s Fukuoka City was suffering from polluted leachate from their anaerobic landfill. Experiments were conducted during the early 1970s to purify the leachate using a semi-aerobic methodology. The experiments were ultimately successful and led to the semi-aerobic landfill method being adopted by the national government as the standard landfill structure to be used in Japan. The method is now known as the Fukuoka Method and Fukuoka City is working to promote it further overseas. Construction on the present landfill began in 1988. In the semi-aerobic method, particular attention is paid to the construction of the leachate pipes and the leachate treatment system. Gas pipes are included with monitoring of the gas emitted. Waste material is added in a four step process adding the waste, pushing in the waste, crushing the waste, covering with soil. The landfill is currently in two sections, with the second section already finished and used as a small golf course.
Wrap Up Meeting and Discussion The wrap-up session which was facilitated by Dr. Kumara, IGES aimed to review the lessons learned from the five-day city exchange programme by the participants and identify the follow-up actions for the participants after their return to Cebu City. Starting the discussion, all the participants stated that they felt the exchange programme was very productive and helped for learning many aspects that are vital for planning and implementation of the Integrated Solid Waste Management system and reduction of SLCPs. For example, they identified that the waste separation at source, environmental education and awareness programmes, operation of MRFs and composting facilities by the private sector, the eco-town, and the construction and management of the semi-aerobic sanitary landfill in Fukuoka are all very good lessons learned. Further, they identified that building partnerships with citizen, private sector and local government is very important for effective solid waste management system in the city. They also recognised that Kitakyushu is very successful in implementing incineration for final treatment and that this should be seriously considered with a particular focus on investment and operational costs, economic viability and environmental impacts, if Cebu City wants to apply this at the local level. After this self-analysis of the lessons learned, the participants discussed the follow-up actions in their city. All participants agreed to develop and implement work plans in two model barangays to reduce by 70% the waste to be landfilled during the period of 2016/2017 based on the ISWM system. Both barangay captains of the model barangays promised to give strong leadership in successful implementation of the work plans in their respective barangays. In addition, the office of Councillor Nida Cabrera, Cebu City Solid Waste Management Board (CCSWM) and the Cebu City Environment and Natural Resource Office (CCENRO) were agreed to provide necessary technical, financial and legal support for the project implementation. The DENR as a national focal point also agreed to provide technical and policy support for the project implementation, documentation of the good practices, development of tools and expansion to other cities. IGES and its mentor city (Kitakyushu City) agreed to provide technical support under the CCAC-MSWI to create and implement work plans in Cebu City. Finally, the session was concluded by agreeing to organise a project planning workshop in Cebu in Feb 2016.
Closing Ceremony A short closing ceremony was then conducted by Kitakyushu City. Mr. Yuji Aoyagi, Executive Director of the International Environmental Strategies Department, Environmental Bureau presented the participants with certificates. He thanked them on the behalf of the City of Kitakyushu for their kind

How to treat industrial waste in Kitakyushu city.Kitakyushu municipality treats not only household waste but also some kinds of industrial waste which is un-recycled paper, un-recycled wood, textile, food waste by incinerator.
The reason is as follows.1. Kitakyushu municipality assists small and medium sized enterprises.
Accordingly we treat some kinds of industrial waste such as paper, wood, textile, food generated from small and medium sized enterprises.
2. Kitakyushu municipality has three incinerators. So we have the excess incinerators capacity.
But Kitakyushu municipality doesnt treat other kinds of industrial waste such as ash, sludge, waste oil, waste acid, waste alkaline, waste plasticso on. These industrial waste is treated by private treating companies.
Infectious medical waste is also treated by special private company. 30

Introduction The City of Kitakyushu, established in 1963 by the equal
amalgamation of five cities, celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2013.
The City became well known nationwide for its manufacturing industry, but also notorious for air and water pollution. Behind the high economic growth, the City experienced severe environmental pollution represented by Japans No.1 thickest dust fall; Dokai Bay, the Sea of Death; and the increasing number of asthma patients.
Today, the City enjoys a clean environment. The blue sky has returned from the multicolored smog and a bio-diverse and affluent blue sea has been regained from an inanimate watery environment. It is easier said than done, but tremendous expense and the efforts of many people have made it possible.

Current Status of Industrial Waste
(1) Industrial waste is generated from each step of manufacturing, processing products and treating exhaust gas and wastewater.
(2) It is necessary to reconsider the raw materials used, andthe process, machines and equipment in order to reduce the amount of industrial waste.
(3) Industrial waste generation and emissions in the city are shown by category in the chart below.
