Figure B3: Value capture in cascading bio-refineries<br />

Impact assessment summary, 2035<br />

Size as share of<br />

food and beverage<br />

sector<br />

Food and<br />

beverage<br />

NOTE: Results estimated for impact of industries inside Denmark only. This sector-specific impact does not include indirect effects, e.g. on supply chains, that are captured in<br />

the economy-wide CGE modelling. BaU = business as usual.<br />

SOURCES:<br />

1 Five company / industrial organisation interviews and five sector expert interviews.<br />

2 Additional price per tonne dependent on type of by-product/waste and its application. Energy production as biofuell/biogas estimated to generate additional EUR 20–30/<br />

tonne. New chemicals estimated to generate EUR 70–80/tonne. Costs estimated to 40–50% of product value.<br />

3 The Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research, Opportunities for a Circular Economy in the Netherlands (2013). Pricing estimates derived from approximate<br />

current and future prices for a 34 waste / by-product streams.<br />

4 Danish EPA, Organiske restprodukter - vurdering af potentiale og behandlet mængde (2014); Kortlægning af madaffald i servicesektoren (2014); Kortlaegning af<br />

dagrenovation i Danmark - Med fokus på etageboliger og madspild (2014).<br />

5 Estimate, taken as 80% of waste generated by the food and beverage industry per EUR of GVA (from Statistics Denmark). See also M. Gylling et al., The 10+ million tonnes<br />

study: increasing the sustainable production of biomass for biorefineries, University of Copenhagen (2013), concluding that the agricultural sector could produce an additional<br />

10 million tonnes of by-products for use in bio-refineries.
