Содержание слайда: Is the list definite? If a material is listed in the list of hazardous wastes It can be classified as non-hazardous if it has none of the listed dangerous properties If a material is not listed in the list of hazardous wastes It can be classified as hazardous if it has even one of the listed dangerous properties http://ec.europa.eu/environment/waste/index.htm (general waste info) http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/business/topics/waste/32180.aspx (classification) In companies, records have to be kept and stored for any operations dealing with hazardous waste (collection, transport) quantity, nature and origin of hazardous waste transport and treatment method foreseen Directive 2008/98/EC provides additional obligations for labeling, record keeping, monitoring and control from the "cradle to the grave", i.e., from the waste producer to the final disposal or recovery.

Содержание слайда: Types of hazardous waste Solid wastes Liquid wastes Chemicals Industrial wastes Well known; in environmental permits Mainly taken to and treated by hazardous waste companies Some can be treated in industrial plants Examples of typical industrial hazardous wastes metal refineries waste chemical industry waste waste oils (not edible oils!) waste from thermal processes solvents

Содержание слайда: Treatment, main aspects Sorted and labelled waste Waste to energy Thermal treatment Physico-chemical treatment Biological treatment Material recovery Special treatments Final disposal

Содержание слайда: 1 High temperature incineration Process units at Ekokem The core unit is a 12-metre rotary kiln 1 300oC (Directive 2000/76/EU For Hazardous waste >1100 oC for 2 s ) Long delay time in kiln and after-burn  complete decomposition and burning Energy is recovered  electricity and district heat The slag can be used e.g. in soil construction Flue gases are cleaned Cooling Acid gases washing by lime Particle removal by electrostatic precipitator Gaseous emissions: further scrubbing Dioxine and mercury removal by activated charcoal At Riihimäki, the energy produced comparable to 43 milj. m3 natural gas.

Содержание слайда: 4 Physico- chemical processes Inorganic wastes, such as acids, bases and heavy metal containing liquids are made chemically safe Main methods Neutralization of acid and bases Precipitation of heavy metals The remaining water is purified for use in processes Oxidation and reduction reactions Notice: one type of waste can be used for processing another type of waste Acid + base Precipitating media
