Introduction Introduction

Good management of waste will lead to benefits for all kinds of businesses, as well as boosting the environment. This directory has been produced to help achieve these aims.

The directory - there are similar ones for Devon, North Wessex and South Wessex Areas - highlights opportunities for recycling in industrial and commercial organisations and offers best practice advice for responsible waste management. Both local and national operators have been included in the listings.

It is hoped the directory will grow in future years, building a wide network of recycling opportunities. A form has been included on page 28 to be completed and returned to the Environment Agency with details of any organisation wishing to be considered for inclusion in subsequent editions.

How to use this directory

The directory is split into two sections, the first, beginning on page 9, is an alphabetical list of waste types with the names of operators who deal with each. The second section, starting on pagel 8, is an alphabetical list of all of the companies included in the directory with their contact information. Look up the waste you have, note the companies involved and then refer to the index for contact details and more information.

The recycling industry faces the geographical barrier of distance between sites where waste is produced and sites where it can be reprocessed. Recycling depends upon networks of collection which most recycling companies administer, however their range and regularity do vary due to economic factors. It is suggested that a phone call is the first step in order to discuss your specific needs and the service offered by a company.

The objective is to encourage business and consumers, in a cost effective and non- regulatory manner, to produce less waste; to recover value from more of the waste that is produced; and to dispose of less waste in landfill sites. In many other European countries, landfilling costs are much higher than in the UK. It is likely that the UK tax rate will increase to stimulate companies to minimise their waste. Energy Producer Responsibility is a major theme of DISPOSAL EC waste strategy, applying both to waste reduction and recovery/recycling. This concept, somewhat modified to shared This hierarchy places alternative waste Producer Responsibility, has found its way treatment options in a fixed order of into the UK packaging waste regulations, preference, with reduction (or minimisation) {see legislation section for further details) at source having the least environmental impact, while landfill is the option with Waste as Resource most environmental impact.

Batteries

Batteries contain a variety of chemicals and heavy metals such as mercury, lead and cadmium which can cause pollution and harm to health. Batteries can be categorised according to their chemical content.

• About 6 million lead-acid car batteries are discarded each year. These can be collected at larger scrap yards (or lead recycling.

• Nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries are highly toxic and should be recycled Return them to their manufacturer via repair shops or wholesale chains where upon they can be shipped abroad for recycling in France or the USA.

• Possibly 80% of batteries are alkali-manganese and zinc-carbon. These may not be rechargeable but they are the only batteries that do not contain any toxic heavy metals.

• Mercury-oxide button batteries used in watches, cameras and hearing aids should be recycled where possible for their mercury content.

• Mobile phone battery cells should be returned to any BT shop.

Chemicals: Chemical waste is a very broad category because there are many different types of chemical waste with many different disposal options. Waste management companies will offer a consultation service and advise on recycling and disposal.

Solvents: Paint thinners, degreas.ints, cleaning fluid, etc A number of industries have successfully replaced solvents from their process. Waste minimisation by substitution with less harmful products is the first option that should be considered. In house recycling is also possible because dirty solvents can still be effective to clean when they contain up to 15% solids, particularly if they are filtered effectively. The final option should be recruiting an external contractor to reprocess solvent back into new products.

Photographic & Printing Waste: The light sensitive properties of silver compounds are the key to most photographic processes and the basis of most waste arisings. Silver contaminated waste is highly toxic and classed as special waste. Unlike other special waste, however, the high value of silver has provided a solid economic basis for recycling. Specialist waste disposal companies are able to recycle all types of photographic waste and credit the value of the silver recovered against disposal charges.

Many waste foods can be reused as animal feed or recycled. In particular there has been recent growth in the network of waste cooking oil and fat processors. Vegetable oil has a similar polluting effect as mineral oil and solidified fat will block drains very effectively. Recovered and filtered, these wastes have substantial economic value for processing and reuse. Other options for organic waste include anaerobic digestion, fermentation or vermiculture, (worm composting) all of which yield a quality soil treatment product.

The Composting Association estimated that 200,000 tonnes of green waste was composted in 1996, a figure that is set to rise into the future with increases in landfill tax. Green waste is mainly dehved from civic amenity sites, kerb side collections and some commercial landscape gardening sources. Other commercial wastes such as wood and food scrap are also suitable for composting. There are numerous composting techniques such as anaerobic digestion, fermentation or vermiculture, (worm composting) which yield a quality soil treatment product.

Aluminium Reprocessing scrap aluminium uses up to 96% less energy than processing the original raw materials making aluminium very economic lo recycle. Beverage cans make up the largest section of aluminium packaging consumption at 78,000 tonnes in 1996. Only 30% of these cans were recycled compared to a rate of 80% in some of our European neighbours. Aluminium foil also has significant value, but due to losses during re-melting, this is less than half that of cans. Foil for recycling must be clean and well compacted.

Ferrous and non-ferrous Scrap metal dealing represents one of the earliest recycling industries. The number of scrap merchants recycling both ferrous and non-ferrous metals is too numerous to list. Refer to the Yellow Pages or a local Environment Agency office for details of a local yard.

Precious Metal The high value of commodities found in some wastes provide a sound basis for their recovery and recycling Electronic scrap is a good example with high value metals such as copper, gold and platinum being found and recovered in computers and printed circuit boards. The light sensitive properties of silver compounds are the key to most photographic processes and the basis of most waste arisings. There are well established systems for recovering and recycling photographic waste based on the value of recovered silver.

Waste paper can be recycled to recover its fibre content or incinerated to recover its energy content. Waste minimisation is being strongly promoted with recycling as the best option for waste paper. As an internationally traded commodity, waste paper is subject to often extreme fluctuations in demand and price making establishment of recycling schemes uncertain. However computer print is a high grade, good quality waste suitable for recycling. Many recyclers collect and shred as a confidential disposal service. Other mixed grade, newsprint, card and contaminated paper will also be collected as part of a package deal. Listing

Between twenty-five nd thirty million tyres are removed from vehicles in the UK each year. The best option for used tyres i s re treading, a long established practice for road haulage and aircraft undercarriage tyres. R e-treads are currently being promoted in car use. Some tyres may be diverted from the waste strearr to isolated local projects such as dock/marine fenders, sea defences or crash barriers in motor racing circuits.

Landfill is not a sustairlable disposal option for the large number of tyres deposited in them annually, Tyres represent a serio us fire hazard as they can be ignited even when underground and they give off toxic fumes. Furthernlore, unless they are shredded prior to disposal, accumulations of tyres make a landfill structurally un<•table.

Wood

Wood recycling is likely to be a growth area in the near future. Major sources of wood include broken or damaged pallets and the construction and demolitton industry. When separated from contaminants, wood can be chipped and supplied to chipboard manufacturers. Other growth markets include use for compost mulch, playground safety, animal bedding and in riding schools. Bark can be supplied to the horticulture industry and roofing timbers can be used in the furniture industry.
