This report describes a wide range of such processes and applications. BACKG R 0U N D Stricter environmental protection regulations and the decrease of available space for waste disposal have motivated an ongoing reevaluation of waste management technologies and an emerging interest in innovative waste ~ processing methods. ~ OBJECTIVES To identify and examine waste and water treatment technologies, particu- larly electricity-intensive processes. To identify specific areas where R&D could have a significant impact on the near- to intermediate-term implementation of electrotechnologies for waste and/or water treatment. APPROACH The investigators gathered information on waste and water treatment tech- nologies and processes through extensive library searches and from their own company files. They solicited similar information, including technology growth projections, from industrial sources. To compile a summary of past and present research in waste management, they examined databases con- taining EPRl reports and government documents. Discussions with govern- ment agency experts confirmed industrial sources of hazardous and non- hazardous wastes and clarified relevant regulations. Where data were available, the research team calculated the energy use of specific treatment processes. They then evaluated the processes, comparing costs of electro- technologies with present methods. ~~ RESULTS Three areas have high potential for the introduction of electrotechnologies: hazardous-waste treatment, wastewater treatment, and resource recovery. _1 -- e Among many processes under research for hazardous-waste management are pyrolysis (including plasmas and infrared heaters), electrochemical con- centration (including electrodialysis), freeze concentration, and supercritical fluid oxidation. EPRl EM-5418s Electricity-intensive processes for water treatment include ion ex- change, reverse osmosis, and ultrafiltration. Some applications of these processes are in early stages of development. For waste recycling, plasma, reverse osmosis, and electrodialysis can be employed in metals recovery and for melting both glass and metal. EPRl PERSPECTIVE Greater use of electricity for waste treatment could result in a substan- ~ tial increase in utility electrical loads, with the large quantities of waste generated annually. Relatively low energy costs presently-and for the foreseeable future-limit the use of electrotechnologies for treating mu- ~~ nicipal solid wastes and nonhazardous industrial wastes. However, es- calating costs of present disposal methods indicate that the potential for using electrotechnologies is much greater for hazardous wastes. In addition, recent regulations have created potential applications for elec- trotechnologies in wastewater treatment and resource recovery. PROJECT RP2416-25 EPRl Project Managers: Alan Karp; I.

Prepared by Science Applications International Corporation Los Altos, California ABSTRACT This work identifies and examines the use of electrotechnologies in the treatment of solid and liquid wastes. The types of wastes studied were divided into five major classifications: 1) municipal solid wastes, 2) municipal wastewater, 3) non- hazardous industrial wastes, 4) hazardous industrial wastes and 5) nuclear wastes. Within each category, information was gathered on the quantities of waste generated, types of wastes generated, current disposal or treatment technologies, research on promising treatment technol ogies, and energy usage for current and promi sing technologies. Information in the above areas was also put together for the topics of drinking water and resource recovery. Current research and development programs were identified within the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), and private industry. In addition, current regulations were reviewed to determine effects on waste management technol ogies. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The project team at Science Applications International Corporation is grateful for the assistance and guidance provided by Mr. Alan Karp and Mr. Les Harry of the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) who supported this project from its in- ception. Mr. Steve Parker of EPRI also provided valuable help in gathering an enormous number of references on waste generation and treatment technologies.

Withinshaw (Chair) G. Cricchi P. Eyraud P. Gerritsma E. Marin J. Negroni T. Nolte R. Polc P. Roach K. Seidler T. Still R. Vazquez Perez M. Spence (Science Executive) M. Hjort (Research Associate) Prepared by NewFields Consultants: J. Oehrig W. Odle Reproduction permitted with due acknowledgement Concawe Brussels November 2017 I report no. 12/17 ABSTRACT This report provides a statistical analysis of waste production by Concawe member company refineries in 2013, based on survey data returned from 74 member company refineries (71% response rate) situated in the EU-28 countries + Norway and Switzerland. It includes a breakdown of waste tonnage according to the origin of the waste, how it was managed and how it was classified under the 2008 Waste Framework Directive (2008/98/EC). This findings from the survey, together with those of previous Concawe waste surveys for 1993 (Concawe; 1-95) and 1986 (Concawe; 5-89), show how the sector has responded to developments in EU waste legislation over the past 30 years. In addition, the data constitute a modern baseline for the future assessment of performance. Total waste production reported by the refining sector in 2013 was 1.2 million tonnes, of which 43% was classified as hazardous. The top 3 reported hazardous wastes types by tonnage are sludges (comprising tank bottoms, physical/chemical treatment, biological treatment and other), followed by spent chemicals/acids/bases and then contaminated soil/stones/aggregate/concrete (with approximately one third of these arising from remediation activities).

Health and Safety Executive “Waste is considered 'hazardous' under environmental legislation when it contains substances or has properties that might make it harmful to human health or the environment. This does not necessarily mean it is an immediate risk to human health, although some waste can be.” August 2016 What is Asbestos? Asbestos is a naturally occurring fibrous material that has been a popular building material since the 1950s (Asbestos can be found in any building built before the year 2000- HSE) It was used as an insulator (to keep in heat and keep out cold), has good fire protection properties and protects against corrosion.

  • Consolidated List of Waste
    Appendix A: Consolidated List of Waste The aim of this Appendix is to reproduce in full the List of Waste, including the legal instructions on its use, and give additional guidance on certain aspects of its use. The outcome of choosing the most appropriate entry in the list will help you decide whether you have a waste that is automatically hazardous, a waste that is automatically non-hazardous or a waste that you will have to do a full assessment on – a so-called 'mirror entry' waste. A1.1 The structure of the List of Waste (LoW) The LoW was established by Commission Decision 2000/532/EC1. It consists of 20 chapters that must be used in a certain order of precedence. Some chapters relate to processes that generate waste and some refer to specific waste types. The chapter headings are given a two-digit number as shown in table A1.1 below. An example of a chapter is: 20 MUNICIPAL WASTES (HOUSEHOLD WASTE AND SIMILAR COMMERCIAL, INDUSTRIAL AND INSTITUTIONAL WASTES) INCLUDING SEPARATELY COLLECTED FRACTIONS. Each chapter of the LoW contains sub-chapters that are identified by four-digits, for example: 20 01 Separately collected fractions (except 15 01) Within each sub-chapter is a list of waste types each given a unique six digit code, for example: 20 01 01 paper and cardboard AN2 For a waste to be given a particular LoW code, reference must be made to the 2, 4 and 6 digit entries. In the case of 20 01 01 the waste must: be paper or cardboard or a mixture of paper and cardboard be kept separately from other wastes when collected from a household (or is waste similar to that produced by a household), and not be packaging waste (which would be coded in sub-chapter 15 01 even if from a household) If the waste does not meet all four of the above criteria 20 01 01 would not be the most appropriate code.
