Air Pollution Control (APC) residues, which are a mixture of fly ash, organic pollutants (including dioxins and furans), carbon and alkaline salts in powder form, are classified as hazardous waste. They are generated from processes associated with the operation of Solid Waste combustion (approximately 80% generated by this route) and other thermal ...
Tetronics' technology destroys organic wastes including Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) and other types of Persistent, Bio‐accumulative, and Toxic (PBT) pollutants at very high efficiencies across a wide range of concentrations.
Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) and Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCFs) are toxic and when inhaled can cause serious illnesses, including lung cancer, and asbestosis (a type of pneumoconiosis). Since the mid-1980s, use of Asbestos has been banned and in most territories its use is strictly prohibited and the subject of specific regulation. ...
The healthcare industry generates billions of pounds of medical, clinical and pharmaceutical waste each year and disposing of it can pose a significant challenge. In some instances medical waste can include infectious‐hazardous clinical waste mixed with general waste, raising concerns about environmental pollution and the transmission of ...
In-vessel composting is a fully enclosed system that accomplishes the natural aerobic break down of biodegradable waste to create a high quality compost product. With the Zero Waste Energy patented IVC Plus System, the active compost process and maturation period can be accomplished in less than 28 days. At the end of this period, compost is ready ...
Spent Pot Lining (SPL) is a contaminated graphite/ceramics cell waste generated in the primary production of aluminium and worldwide is estimated to rise at a rate of over 500,000 tonnes per year. A common challenge for many companies within this industry and in many countries, this waste has been identified as an extremely problematic hazardous ...
Nuclear waste is divided into low, medium, and high‐level waste by the amount of radiological character it contains. Low and Intermediate Level Nuclear waste is the radioactive waste resulting from nuclear facility consumables, clothing, laboratory equipment etc. This waste can adversely affect human health and the environment and therefore ...
Traditionally, the Petrochemical Sector has operated with basic technological solutions, with ultimate reliance on High Temperature Incineration (HTI) and landfill in order to deal with their hazardous wastes. However, tightening regulation, increasing landfill costs and social responsibilities are driving companies to look at alternative methods ...
Heterogeneous soil contamination is caused by the presence of man-made chemicals or other alteration in the natural soil environment and includes Persistent, Bio‐accumulative, and Toxic (PBT) pollutants organics such as Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), inorganic contaminates like asbestos containing materials and metallic pollutants like ...
Fully-automated Municipal Solid Waste ('MSW') Sorting Systems can provide a significant enhancement to traditional Material Recovery Facility ('MRF') operations by processing material that is typically bound for a landfill. It is estimated that as much as 50% of most municipal solid waste streams is potentially recoverable, in the form of paper, ...
