CHAPTER I
GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT
1.1 RATIONALES OF INVESTMENT
At present, the Party and the City authorities pay much attention on environmental problems
and frequently direct on solutions. Satisfactory results are achieved and public awareness is
enhanced significantly. Establishment of several self-govern environmental protection models
have gradually created socialization – privatization of environmental protection activities.
This plays very important role in developing Hoi An City towards Ecological – Cultural –
Tourism City.
Though there is some good achievements, ecological environment in Hoi An still needs to be
improved, especially problems related to municipal solid waste (MSW).
- The existing dumpsite of the city is an open dumpsite, located at Cam Ha Commune, on
an area of 2 ha and overloaded. Several serious environmental problems caused by
operation of the dumpsite are occurring, for instance fly growth, leachate releases to
surrounding areas, contaminates ground water and impacts the life quality of residents
surrounding dumpsite.
- Solid wastes generated from the upstream of Thu Bon river drifting to Hoi An riverside
affect to natural landscape and cause environmental pollution. Collection of solid waste
along the riverside has been done periodically, but the improvement is still limited.
- In some poor communes as Cam Kim, Cam Thanh, collection and treatment of solid
wastes are facing to several difficulties due to poor transportation condition as a result of
uncontrolled releasing of garbage in public areas. This affects to natural landscape and
causes environmental pollution.
Therefore, in order to support these areas overcoming difficulties in treatment of MSW, it is
important to set a sustainable solid waste management system that is suitable to their socio-
economic conditions.
1.2 THE PROJECT INFORMATION
1.2.1 The Project Title and Location
- The project title: Pro-poor and Sustainable Solid Waste Management
- The main task: Feasibility Study on Pro-poor and Sustainable Solid Waste Management in
Hoi An City.

CHAPTER II
CURRENT SITUATION OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
2.1 VOLUME OF SOLID WASTE GENERATION AND COMPOSITION
2.1.1 Volume of Solid waste generation
Based field surveyed results in Cam Thanh Commune, Cam Kim Commune and Cam Pho
Ward, municipal solid waste (MSW) generated from Hoi An City is estimated as presented in
Table 3.1.

1 Household wastes 193.16
2 Commercial wastes 249.17
3 Official wastes 145.71
Surveyed results of 2011 shows that about 80 ton/day of MSW is generated in Hoi An City.
This amount of waste is huge in comparison to the current situation of the existing small and
overloading dumpsite at Cam Ha Ward. The City has no land available for constructing new
central landfill. Therefore, together with modernization of MSW treatment system, it is more
important to reduce waste generation at sources. Waste treatment at source should also be
considered as a prior solution.
MSW generation up to 2025 is predicted as presented in Table 3.3.

It is obviously that food refuses have highest percentage in MSW of the city and followed by
other recyclable and reusable materials such as pieces of clothes, paper, plastic, metals, etc. If
these materials are reused and recycled properly, total amount of waste generated and needed
to be treated will be reduced significantly.
2.2 SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND TRANSPORTATION
2.2.1 Solid Waste Collection Rate
A major waste generation source is from residential areas. Average amount of waste collected
in the whole city is 82.3 m3/day (approximately 37.04 tons/day).
Every year, waste collection rate of the inner wards are as follows: collection 100% waste in
Minh An Ward, 100% in Cam Pho Ward, 90% in Son Phong Ward. In the other wards and
communes, only 65% of waste generated is collected. Especially, Tan Hiep Commune, the
town and Cu Lao Cham Coastal Reserve Management Authority have made effort to reduce
and prevent disposal of household wastes to the sea.

2.2.2 Solid Waste Collection and Transportation Mode
At present, Hoi An Public Work Ltd. Co is responsible for MSW collection and
transportation. Waste collection and transportation is managed and organized as follows:
- Household wastes: Households have to store their wastes in waste bags or bins and leave it
at regulated collection points along the roads. Very day, mechanical collection vehicle go
to the waste collection points to pick wastes up.
- Wastes from restaurants and hotels: The Company collects wastes from more than existing
70 hotels and 90 restaurants. The waste collection service has been done as good as
agreement.
- Along alleys, wastes are collected by pushcarts and then gathered at the waste collection
points along main roads for further transferring into compactor trucks.
- Along the roads, street sweeping has been done during the day time and the night time.
Swept wastes are stored in pushcarts and gathered at the waste collection points for
transferring to mechincal collection vehicles and transporting to the dumpsite at Cam Ha
Commune. The waste collection workers do not separate recyclable materials. These
recyclable materials are picked up by scavengers at the dumpsite.
- Along Hoai River, wastes floating from the riverhead are also collected by a river waste
fishing and collection team.
- At markets, as wastes are generated continuously, the Company has to install 240 L bins to
receive market wastes.
- In the public areas, along central roads, 25 L bins are installed to receive wastes from
visitors and walkers.
- At present, the City does not have special collection system to collect hazardous and
healthcare risk wastes (hospital wastes) yet. Healthcare risk wastes of Hoi An City is
collected and treated by Quang Nam Urban Environmental Company
- Collected MSWs are transported to the dumpsite at Cam Ha Commune.

- Expenditure for sanitation activities during day time and night time, along main roads
and alleys, in the river, waste-bins cleaning, earth and stone shoveling, street cleaning
and watering is 121,900,000 VND/year.
- Expenditure for waste collection, transportation and treatment is 3,916,080,000
VND/year.
* Manual vehicles:
- Jolly-boat: 3 boats (0.8 m3/boat)
- Pushcarts: 45 pushcarts (0.66 m3/pushcart)
The above equipment and vehicles can only serve about 70% of the current demand on solid
waste collection, transportation and treatment of the City.
b) Healthcare Risk Wastes
At present, heathcare risk wastes of hospitals in the City have been collected, transported and
treated at the Provincial Central Healthcare Risk Waste Treatment Center.
2.2.3 Waste Disposal Behavior and Public Demand on Solid Waste Management
Sociological surveys on 90 households at Cam Kim Commune, Cam Thanh Commune and
Cam Pho Ward are summarized in Table 3.5 and 3.6.

households have to treat their wastes themselves. This may cause heavy environmental
pollution in future.

In Hoi An City, an open dumpsite locates at Bau Oc Thuong Hamlet, Cam ha Commune,
about 5 km from the City. This dumpsite has been operated since 1992.
Current situation of the dumpsite is described in the following section. Area of the dumpsite is
about 1 ha. There is no landfill linear, no leachate collection and treatment system, and no
landfill gas collection system in this dumpsite. So far, there is not landfill gas recovery system
at existing dumpsites. Landfill gas is released freely into the atmosphere.
Every day, after collecting solid wastes in the City, the transportation vehicles will transport
wastes to the dumpsite and unload it in front of the dumpsite. Then dumper trucks will load
wastes into open trucks for further transporting into the dumping cells. Total solid wastes
received at the dumpsite are 56 tons/day.
Solid wastes are received at the dumpsite everyday two times:
- In the morning: from 7:00 a.m to 11:00 a.m.
- In the afternoon: from 15:30 p.m to 17:00 p.m.
Solid waste generation increases as social-economic development. This is a great challenge to
Cam Ha dumpsite. In fact, Cam Ha dumpsite is downgrading, and causing air pollution,
surrounding ground water pollution. Therefore there is an important and urgent need to find
out investment solutions, proper and sustainable management policies before it is impossible
to solve.

2.6 WASTE PICK-UP ACTIVITIES AT CAM HA DUMPSITE
Field surveyed results show that several scavengers are picking wastes up at Cam Ha
dumpsite. 85% of the scavengers are women. They can not find other jobs (90%). They have
poor professional skill and low educational level (85%).
These scavengers play an important role in reusing and recycling of recyclable materials and
reducing amount of wastes to be dumped or burden to Cam Ha dumpsite. However, their
working conditions are very poor and Government supporting policies from the Government
are still limited.

Waste materials in Hoi An are collected by scavengers in Cam Ha dumpsite and other waste-
buyers. All collected scraps are sold to small and medium scrap-buying shops within the city.
Only plastic bags collected from Cam Ha dumpsite are transferred to a plastic recycle
enterprise located in Dien Nam – Dien Ngoc industrial zone. It is found from field surveys
that Hoi An City has 7 small and medium scrap-buying shops as listed in Table 5.3.

Almost scrap-buying shops in Hoi An are belonged to household, therefore scrap trading is
done at their houses and irregular. These shops are usually small, so cleaning is paid attention
to prevent harmful to their families.
2.8 RECYCLING ACTIVITIES
None recycling enterprises are located in Hoi An. The field surveyed results indicated that
there are only few pre-recycling enterprises are available. The by-products from the
enterprises will be transferred to other (plastic) recycling enterprises within the province or in
the other provinces/city of the country.
Scrap-buying shop of Mr. Nguyen Van Luu household located in Bau Oc Ha Hamlet, Cam Ha
Commune is one of the few pre-recycling enterprises in Hoi An City. In average, this shop
buys 500 g scrap every day and after pre-treated, the by-products are sold to Ho Chi Minh
City and other surrounding provinces.
Main by-products from pre-recycling processes are plastic resins. As available facilities are
outdate, recycling activities at present cause environmental pollution to surrounding
residential areas.
2.9 COMPOST MARKETS AND AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS
In Hoi An City, agricultural activities are focused on rice-fields, farm products and small scale
livestock farms. Total agricultural area is 965.15 ha, of which rice fields occupy 484.62 ha.
It was found from the field observation that farmers mainly use chemical fertilizers (urea,
potassium, etc.) and organic fertilizers. None farmers use compost in their farms.
The following reasons attributed to that are as follows. Currently, at fertilizer selling agents,
none of compost products are introduced. In addition, understanding of farmers about
compost is still limited.
At present, some farmers are still producing and using a kind of organic fertilizer which is
similar to compost. For instance, mucks, seaweeds from rivers or lakes are incubated to
produce organic fertilizers and used in their farms. This is typical application in Tra Que
vegetable village in Cam Ha Commune.

CHAPTER III
EVALUATION OF SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT POSIBILITY IN FUTURE
At present, Hoi An city is developing a composting facility with current capacity is 60
ton/day. It is under construction and located at Bau Oc Thuong hamlet, Cam Ha ward.
3.1 INPUT OF THE COMPOSTING FACILITY
1. Average amount of solid waste receiving at composting facility is about 55 ton/day
and maximum is 60 ton/day.
2. Organic waste is taken a part of about upper 70% total amount of onside received solid
waste.
3. Total amount of solid waste daily use for composting is 55 ton/day.
4. Composting facility receives solid waste from households which have registered for
waste collection at Hoi An public work company (about 90,000 persons).

6. Mixture of solid waste received at composting facility. Subsequently, solid waste in
turn will be segregated by its properties with apparatus at each step such as: size,
characteristic at pre_separation, density at purification…ect.
7. Average humidity of solid waste for composting is 55 - 70%. Optimum humidity is H
= 65%.
8. Solid waste humidity is affected by weather and changed. In summer, humidity of
solid waste is reduced. So that it is irrigated by the recycled leachate from receiving
hole in order to maintain the suitable humidity of waste at fermentation step.
3.2 OUTPUT OF COMPOSTING FACILITY
As the composting facility is under construction, so that some information are missing.
1. Daily output of compost product is 11,6 ton.
2. Monthly output of compost product is 300 ton.
3. As the composting facility has not go for operation, so that the data of compost price
and consumption are not unified.
4. Quality of compost product is frequently tested. The composting facility has a
laboratory which is sufficient equipped for compost quality test regularly.
3.3 OPERATION SCHEDULE
1. Number of working day per week: (expected) 6 days (8 hours/day)
2. Number of working day per year: (expected) 300 days

3.5 FEASIBILITY OF DEVELOPMENT OF DECENTRALIZED SOLID WASTE
SEPARATION AND PRETREATMENT FACILITIES
Develop the decentralized solid waste separation/pretreatment facilities is a sustainable way
of domestic solid waste treatment and management. In one hand, it supports onside reduction
and treatment of solid waste. On the other hand, it promotes a high quality fertilizer for
agriculture production.
At present, the city is investing a centralized solid waste treatment facility including a section
of compost production. It is serving for generated domestic solid waste of city. However, the
solid waste collection net work of the city has not covered to Cam Thanh and Cam Kim
hamlets yet (transportation cost is very high).
Both of them can arrange land resource for development of decentralized solid waste
separation and composting facility. Beside, the solid waste collection “self_control” groups
have been established since 2007.
3.5.1 Allocation and capacity of decentralized solid waste separation and composting
facilities
No Hamlet Households Total amount of
solid waste Expected area
1 Cam Thanh 1,930 8.7 ton 4,000
2 Cam Kim 1,087 4.8 ton 3,000
Cam Kim hamlet can arrange 3.000 m2 for buildup the composting facility at Phuoc
Thang wards.
3.5.2 Estimated cost for develop and operate the decentralized solid waste separation
and composting facility
No Items Cost
(Million VND)
1 Consultancy and design 100
2 Construction, procurement and installation of facilities 2,000
3 Manpower mobilization and training 200
4 One year support operation cost 120
Total cost 2,420
3.5.3 Participation of scavengers at solid waste treatment facilities
Participation of scavengers at solid waste treatment facilities is very important for
segregation of recyclable waste and compostable waste.

21
However, this job would be reduced when the solid waste separation at source
program is performed at local area. So that, the best option for solid waste segregation is to be
performed by collectors of “self_control” groups.
3.5.4 Management mechanism including parts of Public work Company and exiting
scavengers
- Concentrate on socialization of solid waste treatment, under government management
and support of public work company with professional and equipments.
- Support policy of finance and material facilities in order to create good condition for
sustainable operation of project. Beside, create a suitable mechanism for sustainable
operation of the model its self.

CHAPTER IV
CONCLUSIONS AND ORIENTATION OF ACTION PLAN
4.1 CONCLUSIONS
Cam Kim and Cam Thanh communes are two of areas, which have positive policies
for environmental management in past few years. However, related outcomes are moderated
by factors rising from social economic and natural environment. It is found that, development
of pretreatment/compost production centrals is suitable for the two areas.
People’s awareness about environment protection at Cam Kim and Cam Thanh communes is
high. Beside, “self-control” groups of municipal solid waste collection and treatment had been
established would be a solid foundation for successful of the project.
Project’s success would be of services for local areas becoming more initiative in onside
agricultural fertilizer sources. It is a sustainable way, which contributes to development of Hoi
An city – an Eco_city.
4.2 ORIENTATIONS OF FUTURE ACTION PLAN
In order to get project success, it is need to be overall carried out in local resident mobilization
and propaganda, investment of compost production facilities, and sustainable procedure and
finance.
Especially, disasters prevention and response plans should be reserved for the two communes
Cam Kim and Cam Thanh, which are low land areas. The compost plant should be portable
and sustainable structure, so that they can be moved to safe areas when disasters occur.
Location to build up compost production facilities should be far from communities. Beside,
environment protection formalities should be built for evaluation of ecological environmental
impacts, then recommend for proper mitigation solutions.
Solid waste separation at source need to be cared because of it is very important factor, which
determine the project success. On the other hand, by joining in solid waste separation at
source activities, the people awareness is rising up remarkable.
Another important point is determination of compost product’s market. A priority local
market is the best. At the beginning, government shall have price compensation policy for a
favorable consumption of compost product.
In operation of project, it is need to learn from previous exiting national and international
models, and take advantage of professional suggestion and aids from experts and international
organizations.
