1 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Ciência 2010 Encontro com a Ciência e a Tecnologia em Portugal 04-07 July

2 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Urban areas are characterized by a concentration of economic activities, a high demography and large material stock densities inducing high energy and material flows. These flows represent potential ecosystem impacts with their scale ranging from local, to regional, to global. In order to promote a sustainable material flows management of urban regions, it is vital to understand the urban metabolism and this requires a detailed knowledge of material flows. The Need for Material Flow Accounting

3 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Objectives Characterize Lisbon metabolism in 2004 Measure material flows generated by activities taking place in Lisbon Spatial Boundaries Lisbon city < Lisbon Region or Lisbon Metropolitan Area < Portugal Assumptions & Constraints Lack of available statistical data at the municipal level No real borders exist Commuters Domestic extraction null or residual Strong relation in terms of trade (materials or products) with surrounding region Lisbon City Material Balance

4 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Databases Input | Output international trade national transport of goods waste production sales Socio-Economic characterization population commuters purchasing power commercial establishments retail and wholesale companies workers... MFA Adjustments to Lisbon Characteristics Generic MFA scheme Applied to Lisbon assumptions Domestic extraction minerals fossil fuels biomass Imports Adition to stock Material Stock To Nature emissions, waste, dissipating flows Exports INPUTOUTPUT ECONOMY Crossing Flow Imports Accumulation Stock To Nature emissions, waste, dissipating flows INPUTOUTPUT ECONOMY Addition to stock Material Stock

5 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Allowed to Characterize Four Variables 1 absolute consumption and final disposal of materials, per category 2 materials throughput – materials added to the city material stock 3 activity sectors consumption 4 waste treatment per material category and treatment type The first two variables allowed the quantification of Lisbon’s material balance while the others helped the characterization of the city material consumption Methodology

6 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Eurostat material categories Biomass, fossil fuels, metallic and non metallic minerals and non specified Analysis of every product through all categories monomaterial, industrial production survey (IPS), specific data Paper and cardboard - monomaterial (biomass) Textiles - IPS (biomass 66% and fossil fuels 34%) Automobiles - Valorcar (fossil fuels 22%, metals 75% and non metals 3%) Scarce scientific bibliography Defined categories of flows that leave the economy 1 less than 1 year - e.g. food, fertilizers, packaging, petrol 2 between 2 and 10 years - e.g. toys, computers 3 between 11 and 30 years - e.g. vehicles, household appliances 4 more than 30 years - buildings, infrastructures Solving Data Constraints 1:2

7 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez From Lisbon region to Lisbon city no. workers per Economic Activity Code (EAC) purchasing power indicator of the population (IpC) Analysis of every product through all categories identification of destination economic activity retail % affected by purchasing power wholesale % affected by no. of workers Solving Data Constraints 2:2 Retail (Lx pop x Lx IpC) (LR pop. x LR IpC) Wholesale (Lx EAC no. work.) (LR EAC no. work.)

8 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Products composition matrix(%) Products mass flow matrix (kg), Pjk (k- mass amounts) Lisbon quota matrix (%), Ljl (l- mass percentages) Material matrix (kg): Mathematical Formulation M =M =A xA x P xP x L i – Materials j - Products Agriculture biomass, Forestry biomass, Fishing biomass, Fossil fuels, Metals, Non-metalic minerals,

9 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Consumption distribution no. workers in each destination Economic Activity retail, wholesale and industry activities Example Meat products entering Lisbon Solving Data Constraints 3:3 households destination % (no. of work. meat retail) (no. of work. meat retail + wholesale) restaurants and hotels % (no. of work. meat wholesale) (no. of work. meat retail + wholesale)

10 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Results Input: 11,2Mt Output (solid waste): 0,627Mt + 1,67Mt from air emissions, wastewater (solid fraction) and C&D Waste Addition to Stock (total 2004): 8,8Mt 0,10Mt Missing Recommendations Extend scale of analysis Keep accounting to perform a dynamic analysis (time series) Detailed analysis of economic activities subsystems e.g. Construction and household Include other indicators (environmental, social and economic) Enhance potential for urban planning Results & Recommendations

11 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Quantify Material Flows for the Lisbon Metropolitan Area Establish the methodological framework Measure a time series of Material Flows (2002-2006) Identify proxies for flows distribution among the fundamental spatial scales, namely using GIS information database to locate activities per neighboorhood and to measure Major differences from previous study Existence of available statistical data at the regional level No problem with commuters Significant domestic extraction Less effect of crossing flows Double counting due to industrial activities have to be taken into account Extended LMA Objectives

12 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Input output and addition to stocks in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area will be measured, using mainly data from Trade Statistics. The standard mass balance will be made (imports and local extraction = addition to stock and exports and emissions, and waste produced by perishable goods). Methodology i = products imp = imports de = domestic extraction rec = recycling as = addition to stock exp = exports wp = waste production em = emissions

13 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Eurostat links different product nomenclatures: CN, PRODCOM, COICOP Use of Combined Nomenclature > 10000 product types as the basis for translation into other product databases 28 categories of materials Choice of material categories based on Eurostat MFA, recycling technologies and other classifications from MFA studies Detailing Material Types 1|2

14 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Detailing Material Types 2|2

15 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez 4 categories of products The identification of raw materials, intermediate products, final goods and waste is crucial to distribute among economic activities and to establish average lifetimes Including Material state a = products b = product type i = raw material j = intermediate product k = final good l = waste

16 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez Construct a database of average lifetimes taking into account that: - raw materials, intermediate products and perishable goods are considered having less than 1 year of lifetime - identify frequency of acquisition of products by analyzing household expenditure surveys and market studies. - get information about the real destination of used products, through web survey of the iTeam project Application of distribution equations Expanding the detail on lifespan

17 Urban Metabolism The Lisbon case study Leonardo Rosado, Samuel Niza, Paulo Ferrão and John Fernandez A further step on the MFA regards the establishment of a distribution among the different economic activities. The distribution among the different sectors is done by assigning % to the products regarding their destination (>60 sectors). Distribution of raw materials and intermediate products is being made through the use of input output tables where economic flows from origin to destination activities is tracked. Including Economic Activities Distribution 1|2
