Raw materials management (Inputs) - Reuse of waste on site

By implementing this action plan, the organization will be able to efficiently transform co-products into useful raw materials and inputs, thereby contributing to waste reduction and improving sustainability and operational efficiency.

1. Co-product assessment:

- Co-product inventory: Identify and catalog the types and quantities of co-products generated.

- Characteristic analysis: Evaluate the properties of co-products to determine their potential for transformation into useful raw materials and inputs.

2. Research transformation solutions:

- Explore transformation opportunities: Study available methods and technologies to convert co-products into useful raw materials and inputs.

- Consult experts: Collaborate with waste management and transformation technology experts to evaluate the best options.

3. Development of transformation processes:

- Process design: Develop processes to transform co-products into raw materials and inputs, including the necessary processing steps.

- Development of operational procedures: Document procedures for the collection, transformation, and integration of co-products into production processes.

4. Establishment of infrastructure and equipment:

- Installation of equipment: Acquire and install the necessary equipment for the treatment and transformation of co-products.

- Establishment of facilities: Establish the infrastructure required for the management of co-products and their transformation.

5. Training and awareness:

- Training staff: Train employees on new procedures and equipment for the management and transformation of co-products.

- Promoting co-product management: Raise awareness among staff on the importance of co-product transformation for sustainability and operational efficiency.

6. Integration into the production process:

- Use of raw materials and inputs: Integrate raw materials and inputs from co-products into production processes or other applications.

- Process optimization: Adjust production processes to maximize the use of recycled raw materials and inputs.

7. Monitoring and evaluation:

- Establish performance indicators: Define KPIs to measure the effectiveness of the co-product transformation mechanism (e.g. volume of co-products transformed, savings achieved, waste reduction).

- Monitor results: Regularly monitor the performance of the system and the impact on waste, costs and production.

8. Continuous improvement:

- Review processes: Reassess and adjust transformation processes based on results and feedback.

- Explore new opportunities: Look for new methods or technologies to further improve the transformation of co-products.

9. Communication and reporting:

- Inform stakeholders: Communicate the successes and results of the co-product transformation mechanism to internal and external stakeholders.

- Document progress: Prepare regular reports on the progress made in terms of co-product transformation, process efficiency and benefits obtained.
