                      INTRODUCTION


     The minimization of hazardous  and non-hazardous solid waste
has become an increasingly important topic in recent years.  More
and more,   people  are becoming concerned  that  this  country's
landfills  are nearing capacity,  and that hazardous and  non-
hazardous  solid wastes pose a severe threat to human health and
the environment.  Federal,  State,  and local governments have been
grappling  with methods for minimizing wastes  through  source
reduction and recycling.

     Waste Minimization Hazardous and Non-Hazardous Solid Waste
was compiled with assistance from EPA's Office of Solid Waste- in
support  of  the  overall  Agency  strategy  to   promote  waste
minimization and  to  improve access to  current  source reduction
and recycling information.   The bibliography, which also reflects
current  interest  in  used  oil,    includes  citations  from journal
articles,   books,   government  reports   and  bibliographies,
conference proceedings,  scientific  and  technical papers,  and
speeches.

     Citations  were  selected  for  their   relevance,  to  EPA
information needs.   The bibliography  is   divided into  sections
on  Hazardous Waste, Used Oil, and   Non-Hazardous  Solid Waste.
There  are   five appendices that   provide  sources of additional
information: State Programs  Supporting Waste  Minimization; EPA
Regional .Waste  Minimization   Contacts; Associations;  Waste
Exchanges; and Recycling  Periodicals.   A number  of the citations
include   information on  several of  the  above sections.  Rather
than duplicate the citations,    they were categorized according
to the main thrust of the  article and  EPA program interests.

      Most categories include citations  from 1980  to the present.
A  listing of non-hazardous solid waste citations pre-dating 1980
will be  published separately.  It  is   titled Waste Minimization:
Non-Hazardous  Solid  Waste Retrospective   (1970-1979).  The
Background category in the Hazardous Waste section -provides
general  information-on aspects of  hazardous waste minimization.
In  the  International Aspects categories,  only, information from
1984 to  the  present  was included because  of  the  great amount of
information  found.    For  the  same reason,  the   Waste-to-Energy
category  includes only information  from  1985  to  the  present.
Contributions of a  number of citations  were made by some States,
not only of  reports  and bibliographies  from their own programs,
but of programs they have  found valuable.

      Following are  definitions  of key hazardous  waste minimi-
zation terms taken from EPA's  Report  to Congress:  Minimization
of Hazardous Waste.  October 1986  :

-------
           SOURCE  REDUCTION  -  refers  to  the  reduction  or
elimination of waste generation  at  the source,  usually within a
process.   Source reduction implies any  action  that reduces the
amount of waste exiting from a process.

            RECYCLING -  refers  to the  use  or reuse  of  a waste
as an  effective  substitute for  a commercial product, or  as an
ingredient or feedstock in an industrial process.   It  also refers
to the reclamation of useful constituent fractions  within a waste
material or removal of  contaminants from a  waste to allow it to
be reused.

           WASTE MINIMIZATION -  means  the  reduction,  to   the
extent  feasible,  of  hazardous waste that  is  generated  or
subsequenbtly treated, stored, or disposed  of.   It includes any
source reduction  or recycling activity undertaken  by  a generator
that  results  in  either  (1)  the reduction  of  total  volume  or
quantity of hazardous waste, or  (2) the  reduction of toxicity of
hazardous waste,  or both, so  long as the reduction  is consistent
with the goal of minimizing present and future  threats to human
health and the environment.

  Waste  reduction is an economically sensible response to what many people
see as a hazardous waste crisis. -Several thousand pounds of hazardous waste
are  generated  annually  for every person in the Nation. Many thousands of
people  have  lost  their  drinking water because of contamination by toxic
waste.  Across  the  country  there  are thousands of sites contaminated by
hazardous  waste that require billions of dolars for cleanup. An increasing
number  of  lawsuits are being brought by people who claim to have suffered
adverse  health  effects from living near toxic wate sites. Also the number
of  lawsuits  being instituted by the government is mounting rapidly. These
suits   claim   that  certain  waste  generators  have  not  complied  with
regulations  and  that generators who have used waste management facilities
now on the Superfund list must pay for cleanups.

  The  RCRA  authorizes  federal  and  state  agencies  to  regulate  waste
disposal. The development of waste management programs should depend on the
waste  composition,  volume,  and  economic  factors  resulting  in various
programs  of  recycling;  removal  of toxic or hazardous components, volume
reduction,  chemical,  thermal,  or  biological conversion; burial of toxic
wastes  in  secure  landfills;  and burial of detoxified wastes in sanitary
landfills.  Proper  waste  management  emphasizes  environmental  pollution
reduction. Information is presented on regulations, transportation control,
physical,  chemical,  and biological treatment, incineration, land disposal
facilities, ocean dumping, and comprehensive waste management.  (FT)

  Improved  industrial  profitability  has  traditionally appeared to be at
odds  with  improved  environmental  quality.  These  two objectives can be
combined,   surprisingly,   when   industries   implement  .waste-minimizing
strategies. Hazardous-waste source reduction is a concept and practice that
goes  by  many  names.  Some  of ' the  more  cannon  ones include pollution
prevention,  low-  and non-waste technology, source or waste reduction, and
waste   minimization.   The   goal  is  elimination  of  the  manufacturing
by-products  that "must be treated as waste. The objectives are to avoid the
inefficiency in production that results in wasted resources,  and to
minimize the emission of by-products to the environment. Waste minimization
alleviates disposal costs, liability risk, and resource costs. Clearly, the
result  is  a  reduced  insult and burden on the natural environment and an
increased  profitability  for business. Waste, after all, is only a misused
and misplaced resource.

  This book provides an in-depth study to examine what the organic chemical
industry is doing to reduce its output of hazardous wastes at their  source.
It  presents  answers  to  these questions:   What  are the organic chemical
industry's options for reducing hazardous wastes? Do  government regulations
provide  incentives  or  obstacles  to  hazardous waste reduction? Is waste
reduction a money-saver or a financial hardship? The  study includes  29  case
studies  of organic chemical plants run by both large, well-known companies
that  dominated  the  industry,  such, as DuPont, Exxon, and  CIBA-GEIGY, and
smaller plants that are usally overlooked by environmental regulators.  Each
company  is examined in detail for waste reduction practices in five areas:
process  changes,  product  changes,  chemical substitutions, use of new or
modified equipment, and changed procedures for handling chemicals.

  Industrial waste reduction: The process problem
  Valentino, F.W. ; Walmet, G.E.
  ENVIRONMENT  VOL. 28, NO. 7,   vp,    Publ.Yr: 1986
  Languages: ENGLISH        -

  Public  and  governmental interest in industrial wastes has traditionally
 resulted  in  the  expenditure  of  much  time  and money on the "embedded"
 problem of treating abandoned hazardous waste dumps, preventing the illegal
 dumping of  wastes,  and regulating industrial discharges and dumping. The
 vital   importance  of  strategies  to  reduce  the generation of industrial
 wastes  at  the  source,  or  the  "process"  problem,  is often neglected.
 Accepted strategies for reducing both the toxicity and volume of industrial
 waste   vary  from  minimal-cost  efforts  to  major "changes  in production
 processes.  No   single  strategy  is  always  best  and usually the optimal
 solution is a composite approach.

  The  report  examines  key  institutional,   or nontechnical,  factors that
affect  the  generation of industrial waste and discusses the public policy
approaches that could encourage industries to reduce generation.  Industrial
waste  reduction  programs  can  be  expected  to  occur through a series  of
overlapping   phases   as  the  programs  become  increasingly  costly  and
sophisticated".  Public policies need to be dynamic and flexible to adapt  to
the  changing  circumstances. At this time, most waste reduction  efforts  in
U.S.  industry  are  in  their  early stages and many relatively  simple and
inexpensive opportunities exist for reducing generation of  hazardous waste.
Non-regulatory  approaches,  such  as  educational programs and information
dissemination,  are required to encourage waste reduction.  Increasing costs
of  land  disposal  are  also  an  important  impetus  to undertaking waste
reduction  programs.  In  the  future,  as  industries  need to   use  more
sophisticated  waste reduction methods, research and development  assistance
in  •meeting  capital  costs  will  be  needed.  Finally, the technological,
political,  and  economic  limit  of  waste reduction will  be approached; a
program  of  risk  assessment  and management will be needed to define this
limit.

  Detoxication  of wastes intended for landfill or incineration offers many
advantages  —  reduces legal liability, improves the efficiency and safety
of  incineration,  allows  recovery  of  valuable  chemicals.  This  is the
definitive  work  on  detoxication  procedures  now  available  for solving
pollution  problems.  No comparable study offers the full coverage provided
by  this  volume. An introductory section gives political, societal, legal,
and  technical  aspects  of . detoxifying  hazardous  wastes.  "The book then
focuses  on  chemical,  physical, 'and biological techniques that modify or
destroy hazardous waste. A variety of detoxication procedures are explained
that  can  be  used  to treat hazardous waste as a practical alternative to
landfill disposal..

   Production  is up and manufacturing costs down at an electroplating plant
 in  Cincinnati.   A  factory in Culvert, Kentucky, has  reduced the amount of
 expensive  crude  oil  it  needs  to  produce  vinyl   chloride, and a major
 Minnesota-based  company   has already saved millions of dollars after a new
 system  for  recovering  chromium was installed  at its plant. These are not
 the  first fruits of the  Reagan administration's regulatory relief  program.
 On  the contrary, success stories such as these  are related to the  stronger
 laws  of  the last decade which govern industrial waste emissions and which
 have   spurred  increased  interest  in  the  alternative   hazardous  waste
 management strategies of  reduction (changing the industrial process so  that
 hazardous   by-products   are   not  produced),  recycling  (reusing  waste
 materials),  and  resource recovery (extracting  valuable materials  from the
 waste stream).

  In  sane  measure, hazardous wastes are the inevitable by-products of the
goods  that  we demand. Toxic waste products are generated by production of
the  clothes we wear, the food we eat, the cars we drive, and the medicines
we  take.  Everyone  would  agree  that  steel is an essential product. Yet
making  steel  produces  hydrochloric  acid, sulfuric acid, and potentially
toxic  zinc salts. These wastes are increasingly being minimized by changes
in  production technology and by recovery and recycling, but they cannot be
totally eliminated.

  Prevention of hazardous wastes, the safest "disposal" method, may involve
chemical  process  changes, additional processing equipment to separate and
reuse  or  destroy  hazardous  components; improved operating procedures to
reduce  contamination;  reuse  of  the material onsite or sale for reuse by
another facility; reuse or sale of the material for fuel;  strong control of
the disposal program to reduce the potential for emissions of the hazardous
material  during  handling, transportation, and disposal;  and prompt action
when emission does occur to reduce the spread of contamination and minimize
the  volume  of  hazardous  waste.created. In order of preference, disposal
methods  favored, are sale or transfer for reuse or for fuel., incineration,
landfilling, and, to a limited extent, deep well injection.   (FT)

  SUMMARY LANGUAGE -  ENGLISH
  Languages: ENGLISH

  Practical  solutions  to  waste management problems by industry typically
require a multifaceted approach for most waste streams, particullarly those
containing  hazardous  wastes. Waste transfer or exchange between firms, as
an  alternative  to  other  management  methods  such  as  land disposal or
incineration,  is  becoming economically more attractive for many firms, m
addition,  the  recent trend in regulations is toward encouraging recycling
and  waste  reuse.  The  costs  of  properly  managing hazardous wastes via
treatment  or  disposal are relatively-expensive. The exchange and reuse of
waste  materials may result in on-going revenues that can be used to defray
operating costs. Waste exchanges, through their broad networks of contacts,
help  to  identify resource reuse opportunities. The historical development
of  the  network  of  non-profit  and  for-profit  waste exchanges that has
developed  throughout North America is outlined and current characteristics
are  identified.  Recent  cooperation  among  exchanges has resulted in the
development of the National Waste Exchange Data Base. This on-line computer
information  service  provides  manufacturers  and  recyclers  with  a  new
marketing  tool  to  meet  short-term (spot, market) and long-term recycling
needs. 'The  role  of  exchanges  in  helping  companies comply with recent
federal waste certification and minimization requirement is explained.

  The  main  advantage of the chemical waste exchange program is that these
chemicals  are  removed  from  the  hazardous  waste  stream.   In addition,
off-campus  disposal and its costs are eliminated, the concept of recycling
is promoted, and university chemical costs are reduced.

  SUMMARY LANGUAGE -  ENGLISH
  Languages: ENGLISH


  The  legislative history of RCRA shows that Congress clearly intended EPA
to have authority to regulate recycling activity as part of hazardous waste
management. This is inherent in the "cradle-to-grave" concept on which RCRA
is  build.  While  The  author  wants  to  encourage  the beneficial use of
recycling, he has to acknowledge that some recycling activities pose a much
greater  potential for harm than others. He is particularly concerned about
five  types  of  recycling  activity:  1.  Anything  that  involves  direct
placement  of  wastes  on  land; 2. Burning waste or waste-derived fuel for
energy  recovery; 3. Processes that regenerate wastes, or recovery material
from  wates;  4.  Speculative  accumulation  of wastes that are potentially
recyclable,  but  for  which  no current market exists; and 5. Accumulation
without sufficient amounts of .stored material being recycled.

  SUMMARY IJOSJGUAGE -  ENGLISH
  Languages: ENGLISH

  Improved  industrial  profitability  has  traditionally appeared to be at
odds  with  improved  environmental  quality.  These  two objectives can be
combined,   surprisingly,   when   industries   implement  waste-minimizing
strategies. Hazardous-waste source reduction is a concept and practice that
goes  .by  many  names.  Some  of  the  more  common  ones include pollution
prevention,  low-  and non-waste technology, source or waste reduction, and
waste   minimization.   The   goal  is  elimination  of  the  manufacturing
by-products  that must be treated as waste. The objectives are to avoid the
inefficiency  in  production  that  results  in  wasted  resources,  and to
nrinimize the emission of by-products to the environment. Waste minimization
alleviates disposal costs, liability risk, and resource costs. Clearly, the
result  is  a  reduced  insult and burden on the natural environment and an
increased  profitability  for business. Waste, after all, is only a misused
and misplaced resource.

quantities  of  .hazardous  waste  through  onsite  recycle  and  treatment.
However,  not   all  proposed technology is suitable and certain regulations
reduce  the  incentive   (e.g., by making it difficult to delist a hazardous

  This report presents the results of ICF's analysis for  developing a state
economics  incentives program for  reducing  the  amount  and toxicity  of
hazardous wastes generated in California.   Based on an analysis of existing
barriers to waste reduction and the alternative incentive mechanisms, this

  SUMMARY LANGUAGE -  ENGLISH;  Public policy issue.
  Languages: ENGLISH

  Governments considering action to encourage source reduction of hazardous
wastes  should proceed with caution. Only research and information programs
are  certain  to  improve  efficiency  in  waste  generation  decisions  by
generators.  Other  programs,  such  as  waste  taxes, subsidies for source
reduction,  or  regulations  are  likely  to  cause more problems than they
solve. These problems are inherent in the nature of industrial waste or the
program type or both.

  The  plan presents  the current  status  of  generation,  treatment and
disposal  of hazardous waste  in Iowa and projects these activities into the
future.   It also provides  recommendations for achieving sound, long-term
management   of   hazardous  waste  in  Iowa.  The  major  conclusions  and
alternatives,  presented  by  the plan,  address changes in policy and waste
management.  Waste  management  guidelines were recognized. Land disposal of
hazardous  wastes is the least  preferred option. Other alternatives are (1)
waste  reduction through  industrial production  changes,  segregation of
hazardous  wastes from   nonhazardous wastes,  process  modification,  and
end-product substitution;  (2)   reuse,  recovery of material or energy, and
recycling;  and   (3)   incineration  and  treatment  of wastes to reduce the
volume of  generated  wastes  or to reduce the hazard  level of these wastes.
Disposal  and  long-term storage, as a last alternative, must still be used
for residues from the  previously mentioned practices.

  JOURNAL  ARTICLE   THE  ILLINOIS WASTE LAW OF 1982 SEVERELY RESTRICTS THE
DttJDFILL DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS WASTES. IMFLEMEMIATIQN OF THE LAW DEPENDS ON
INTERPRETATION  OF  THE  EMBODIED  CONCEPT  OF ECONOMIC REASONABLENESS. THE
STATE  CAN  GRANT  SPECIFIC  AUTHORIZATION  FOR DISPOSAL OF SUCH WASTE ONLY
AFTER THE GENERATOR HAS REASONABLY DEM3SISTRATED THAT, CONSIDERING TECHNICAL
FEASIBILITY  AND  ECONOMIC  REASONABLENESS,  THE  WASTE  STREAM CANNOT  BE
RECYCLED, INCINERATED, OR OTHERWISE TREATED. THIS STANDARD OF AFFORDABILITY
DOES  NOT  ACHIEVE,  FROM  AN  ECONOMIC  EFFICIENT STANDPOINT,  THE  SOCIALLY
OPTIMAL  AMOUNT OF LANDFILLING HAZARDOUS WASTE. THE LAW SHOULD  BE REWRITTEN
TO  COMPEL  REGULATORS  TO  ESTABLISH  STATEWIDE, RATHER THAN CASE-BY-CASE,
STANDARDS. ( 60 PHOTOS, )

  Three  hundred  million gallons of hazardous waste are generated annually
by  4,500  firms  throughout  New England. The critical question facing New
England  today  is  what  to do with these wastes. In an attempt to address
this  question,  the  New  England  Regional  Commission  (NERCCM)  began a
hazardous  waste  management  program  in  1978.  NERCCM,  a  federal-state
partnership of the six New England state governors and a federal cochairman
appointed  by  the  president,  serves to maintain and improve the region's
economic  well-being.  Its  hazardous  waste management program is directed
toward  encouraging  facility development, strong state regulations, prompt
clean-up  of  illegal  dumps,  public  education,  and  waste reduction and
recycling. The facility development project has undergone two phases.

  The  California Department  of Health  Services,  as  mandated  by the
 California  Hazardous Waste  Control Act of 1978,  is  currently developing a
 comprehensive     resource    recovery   program    using     a    _ combined
 clearing-house-consultatibn  approach.   Although  land  disposal   is  still
 considered,   alternate  methods  for  the   disposal  of  highly   dangerous
 materials and materials with an economic value were  investigated.  Initially
 as  an  information  gathering  effort, the pilot Resource  Recovery Program
 begun  in  1977  evolved into a program encouraging unrelated industries to
 develop  symbiotic  relationships.  By Aug.  1978,  35 hazardous waste streams
 were  being  recycled, and sufficient data had been collected to  categorize
 the  hazardous  wastes  into  5  broad recycling groups.  The success of the
 pilot  program  indicates that a government-industry cooperative  effort can
 result in utilization of many hazardous wastes.  (FT)

  Prepared for California Department of Health Services, Alternative
  Technology Section, 714/744 P  Street, Sacramento, CA, June 1987

  This report  presents the results  of PRC's waste  audit  study  for the
printed circuit (PC) board manufacturing industry.  The study was conducted
to  identify  opportunities for  waste reduction available  to the PC board
manufacturing industry and to develop a generic audit  protocol that  can be
used by manufacturers  to  assess their own waste  reduction opportunities.
The study  emphasized technologies available to small- and  medium-sized PC
board facilities.  The tasks included in the study were:  (1) selecting PC
board manufacturing facilities  to include  in the study,   (2)   performing
waste  audits  at  each, facility,  (3)  developing recommendations  for
implementing waste  reduction  technologies at each audited facility,  (4)
discussing with  facility  representatives  the feasibility  of implementing
the waste  reduction recommendations,  and  (5)  developing this waste audit
report.

  This waste  audit study investigates and analyzes the automotive  repair
industry in  California.   It  makes specific recommendations  for the
reduction  of  hazardous  waste generated by  this  industry  (SIC  7538 and
7539).   The  study performs an onsite evaluation of  three  firms to
characterize the typical operations conducted.   The firms  audited are:  (1)
a  medium-sized auto transmission  business, (2)  a  large  automotive
dealership in Northern California, and (3)  a large leasing and maintenance
company  -for  automotive  , parts  cleaning  equipment.    The  current  waste
management  practices are  assessed.    Specific onsite and; offsite  waste
treatment  recycling  alternatives  are developed.   The  results are
generalized to allow other firms  in the  industry  to  perform  a self-audit.
This  report will  help  these firms  to  develop  economical,  commercially
available waste management options.

 industry
   Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.
   Prepared  for California Department of Health Services, Alternative
   Technology Section, 714/744 P Street, Sacramento, CA 95814, April 1987

   Waste audit studies were conducted at three paint manufacturing plants  in
 the Los  Anqeles  area.   The  audited  plants were selected based on  their
'willingness to  participate,  applicability  to study objectives, and
 potential usefulness  of data derived from the audit to the  industry as a
 Stole    The results  of the  first  two audits  were utilized to  prepare a
 general self-administered waste audit checklist.  This  checklist was sent
 to the third plant for testing of its effectiveness as  a self-audit tool.
 The  checklist is  broken down into  the following categories:  facility
 characterization, raw material handling, material substitution and product
 formulation,  process  operation, plant  operations  management,   and  waste
 SSSL*.    The checklist was developed as  a tool for   the industry  to
 systematically  evaluate  their  current processes and  operation  for
 additional waste minimization potential.

 hazardous  waste  from  current  activities, small quantity generation, and
 site  cleanup  actions.  The  Michigan  Toxic  Substance Control Commission
 examined  private,  semi-private,  and state systems in terms of short- and"

  Under  current  Federal  regulations  the  metal  finishing industry must
control  the  wastewater  and  hazardous  wastes they generate'.  This can be
accomplished through the use of cost-effective waste management techniques.
These  range  from  simple  water  conservation techniques to more advanced
material  recovery  systems.  All  of  these  methods  are based on readily
available  technologies,  which  are  simple  and  inexpensive  to install,
operate, and maintain. A systematic application of these methods can result
in  a  significant  reduction  in  the  cost  of  wastewater  treatment and
hazardous  waste disposal. Yet, these techniques are not widely used within
the  metal  finishing  industry. This paper presents some of the results of
two  studies  into  the  application of these techniques to metal finishing
facilities  within  Maryland.  This  worJc  was  sponsored  by  the Maryland
Hazardous  Waste Facilities Siting Board. The Board recognized that many, of
the   waste  generators  within  the  State  did  not  have  the  technical
capabilities  to  develop cost-effective waste management strategies. Thus,
the  Board  investigated  means  by  which  industry could be provided witii
assistance on hazardous waste management.

  Fondessy  Enterprises, of Oregon, Ohio, still carries on trash collection
and  landfill operations, but it also provides emergency cleanup of oil and
chemical  spills,  tank  cleaning,  transportation  of   toxic and, hazardous
wastes,  sludge  disposal,  and resource recovery, plus a brokerage service
for recyclable chemical wastes and-heavy equipment rentals.- The 4 companies
that comprise the Fondessy group own >300 pieces of equipment, including 14
solid  waste  collection vehicles, landfill equipment,  40 cranes of 8-200 T
capacity,  tractors  and  semitrailers,  end loaders and bulldozers, an oil
mop, boats and barges, skimmers, and light planes. Although hazardous waste
handling gives the company national recognition, business fluctuates widely
depending upon movement of chemicals. Solid waste is the low-key portion, of
the • operation,  but  it  provides  the  daily  cash  flow  that  the other
operations  do  not. In the event of a storage tank rupture or spill from a
rail  car or tank truck, men and equipment can be mobilized in as little as
15  min. The firm has a telephone link with an EPA data base in Washington,
DC,  to  obtain  characteristics  of the material and safety precautions to
observe when handling it.  (FT)

  SCA Chemical Services Company, a division of SCA Chemical Waste Services,
Incorporated,  has  built a waste-to-waste processing and recovery facility
in  Newark, New Jersey, which offers a new chemical service, and solves the
problems  of  how  to  handle toxic and hazardous wastes in full compliance
with local, state, and federal regulations. The plant is the first of a new
breed  of  processing and recovery facilities to use proprietary multitrain
unit processes and. resource recovery and reutilization technology. Products
generated by the facility fall into 3 categories: recovered, marketable, or
reusable  organics',  acids,  alkalies, and fuels; chemically detoxified and
treated  inactive  aqueous  process  effluent;  and  dewatered  sludges and
concentrated  solid  residues.  A permitted tank farm is located onsite for
storage of the recovered products; but due to the high marketability of the
recovered  products,  onsite storage is minimal. Incoming waste streams are
classified  according  to  5  major  functional  groups based on processing
operations,  i.e.,  organically  contaminated aqueous waste, acid recovery,
fuel  reclamation and formulation, acid-base redox neutralization, and fuel
reclamation  and  formulation.  Organic reclamation is conducted in 4-stage
unit-operations.   Associated   reactors,   scrubbers,   receivers,  and  a
distillation  unit  steam  strip  solvents",  and separate and treat aqueous
phases.  Process  reactions include liquid-liquid separations, liquid-solid
separations,  steam  stripping of solvents and volatile organics, acid-base
neutralization   (pH  adjustment), and chemical and active-oxygen oxidation.-
The  organic  reclamation  process, acid recovery process, fuel reclamation
and  formulation,  acid-base  neutralization  process,  and hazardous waste
detoxification process are diagrammed.  (FT)

  Technically  desirable waste treatment alternatives for the management of
industrial  wastes  are  energy  and/or  materials recovery, detoxification
treatment,  and  volume  reduction  prior  to disposal. Regardless of which
alternative  is  used,  residues  must be disposed of in an environmentally
suitable   manner.   Attractive   options   include  incineration,  secured
landfills,  .land  cultivation  and composting, and solidification. Although
the  prevailing  sentiment  in  New  England  leans  in  the direction of a
combination  of  landfill  and  incineration,  the use of solidification in
conjunction  with  these  2  is  a  novel  approach  for waste disposal. In
practice,  wastes  from  various  processes are deliberately mixed with one
another to provide a certain level of pretreatment and stabilization.  Thus,
the blending of an acidic waste with a caustic one provides neutralization,.
while  the  addition  of  a sulfide-containing waste to a heavy metal waste
would    provide    some   measure   of   metal   immobilization.    Because
stabilization-solidification   can   convert   a  hazardous  waste  into  a
nonhazardous  ore-like substance, there are a number of productive uses for
the  final  product, i.e., the use of pozzalanic-based solidified wastes as
roadbed   aggregates  and  in  parking  lots.  Solidification  has  enjoyed
extensive  use  in  Japan  for land reclamation along harbor fronts, and in
Europe  in  abandoned  mines  and quarries. In New England, it would appear
that  solidification  offers  some  advantages  over  the present option of
transporting  wastes  to  secured  landfills  in western New York; however,
solidification would require regulatory acceptance and approval.   (FT)

  Used, oil  in  California  is  classified • as  a hazardous  waste material
subject  to  the  regulatory  overview  of  many  agencies.   Because of its
classification  as  such,  used oil is regulated by the State Department of
Health Services (DCHS), and subject to manifesting and vehicle registration
requirements;  the Air Resources Board (ARE), who regulates emission levels
and  hydrocarbon emissions from processing plants and fuel oil burners; the
Regional  Water Quality Control Boards who monitor oil disposal operations;
the  California  Highway  Patrol,  who  performs vehicle inspections of the
hauling  industry;  and  the State Solid Waste Management Board (SWMB), who
regulates,  used  oil. recycling  activities  in, the-state. This report  will
focus  upon  the  latter  area  of  used  oil  recycling, and  the program
California  has  developed  to  effectively monitor the disposition of  over
50.6 'million  gallons  of used oil collected and recycled each year in the
state.   In addition, the author will discuss the.efforts the  state -has  made
to  promote  the  concept  of  oil  recycling  through public awareness and
marketing activities.

  Large  amounts of used lubricating oil are generated in the United States
each  year.  This  oil  is  very  widely  dispersed throughout the country,
especially  by  the 60 percent of motorists who change their own motor oil.
Under  current  EPA regulations, the characteristics of most used oil would
place  it  in  the  hazardous  waste  classification.  This paper describes
research on impurities, and contaminants in used and recycled oil, including
PCBs,  lead  and  lead  species,  and  the  halogens  chlorine and bromine.
Additional  data  on  the  environmental  consequences  of improper used oil
disposal  is  needed, in order to help provide proper direction for the oil
recycling industry and the appropriate regulatory agencies.

  As  part  of  Metro's Household Hazardous Waste Disposal Project, a pilot
study  was  conducted  in the Seattle area to determine public awareness of
and  attitudes  about  the issues of toxic/hazardous substances in the home
and  their safe disposal. Metro also wished to determine actual response to
a  collection  program  in a brief, neighborhood test. An initial telephone
survey  was  conducted  in. the  Seattle  metropolitan  area  and  the test
neighborhood. A three-week collection project for pesticides, solvents, and
used  motor  oil  was  run  in the 4000 household neighborhood in February,
1982,  followed  by  a  telephone survey to help interpret project results.
This  report  describes  the  preparation,  procedures, and findings of the
surveys and pilot study. Reconroendations have been developed for a regional
education  and  collection  system  for  household  hazardous wastes in the
Seattle/King County area.

  Land  disposal  is  the final step in the solid waste management process.
The  need  for  landfills can be reduced somewhat through reuse, recycling,
and/or  resource  recovery  of waste materials. Processing solid wastes can
reduce  handling problems, increase the density of the wastes, and decrease
the  environmental  problems  associated  with  waste disposal. This lesson
describes recycling and processing of solid wastes for resource recovery.

  Ash  residue  may  be  overlooked as a potential income-producing product
when  a  waste-burning  plant  is built. Recent technological advances have
enabled  the  ash  residue  to  be  economically  processed into marketable
products. In one process now used at three plants, for every 75 cubic yards
of  shredded solid waste, which would nave to be processed at the front end
to  separate and recover the metals, only one cubic yard of ash needs to be
processed  for recovery. This is equivalent to enriching our "urban ore" by
more   than   50  times!  It  also  changes  the  raw  material's  physical
characteristics   into   a   homogeneous,   easily   processible   product.
Furthermore,  in this process, the metals are not contaminated with organic
materials,       .                                    '

  How  to  assess  energy consumption in a municipal solid waste composting
operation.  Of  the economic factors, the energetics of composting in waste
management  is  in urgent need, of further elaboration and exploration. This
need  prompted  an  attempt  on  the  part  of the authors of this paper to
resolve basic questions regarding the energetics involved in the production
and  utilization  of compost from, urban solid wastes and municipal sludges,
and  peripherally, the applicability of these findings to the management of
other  wastes   (e.g., agricultural). Progress made in pursuing this attempt
is described in the present paper.

  The  abundance  or cellulosic-based wastes was  reviewed by
section of  the country  and type which  includes:  wood wastes,
municipal wastes and  manures.  Of  the most promising  waste
conversion  processes  now  under  consideration,  pyrolysis,
liquification, and hydrolysis were  selected for preliminary
laboratory  screening.    Model  wastes  for  this  study  included
several pyrolysis oils, paper,  sawdust  and  dried cow manure.
Distillate oils produced during wood waste pyrolysis (WPO)  served
best as  precursers. of  products  that  approxomated bitumens and
highly viscous  fluids.  In  the statistically  designed study of
process parameters which  followed,   the  best  conditions were
identified  for  distilling and hydrogenating  the  crude WPO for
conversion to a usable  product  (hydrogenate). This hydrogenate,   •  '
because  of  its  high  oxygen  content,  could  be  added  to
conventional asphalt only in amounts up to  ca.  15  weight percent
concentration with little or no  observed property change.  In
combination    with     sulfur,     the     ternary    system-
AC/hydrogenate/S: 29/29/42 had a penetration value  comparable to
that of AC/S:65/35.  A 909 .metric  ton/day  waste processing
facility could be cost  effective in producing 72.7 metric tons
per day of  pyrolysis  product equivalent to 318  metric tons or
more of blended binder. This assumes that waste is  available at
no  cost and that  coproduct  oil and char  are  credited  at
equivalent heating values.   (FHWA)

  One  of  the  more  interesting  new  concepts  that  is gaining interest
throughout  the  country  is  that  of recycling old concrete pavements for
aggregate  in  new  construction. Recycling is consistent with the American
Concrete.  Pavement  Association  (ACPA) econocrete concept, which encourages
the  use  of  recycled  concrete  for  subcases,  composite  pavements, and
full-depth  pavements. The Federal Highway Administration has endorsed this
program  and  at  the present time has a national evaluation program on the
recycling  of  old  concrete  pavements. Research by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers  indicates  that  the  recycling  of an old concrete pavement can
actually  enhance  or improve the original aggregate, thus providing longer
life  than  was possibly attained in the initial pavement. The depletion of
supplies of high-grade concrete aggregates in certain regions, the need for
better  methods  of  solid-waste  disposal, and energy conservation efforts
have  led  to this accelerating interest in recycled concrete. Recycling of
old  concrete is .feasible and should be considered whenever good aggregates
.are  not  available  locally or when aggregate costs are excessive or where
the  costs  of  removing and wasting the old pavement are in excess of "what
the  cost  would be for recycling that material for new aggregate. In 1970,
aggregates  produced  in  the  United  States totaled 1.8 billion tons. The
highway  industry  used  47  percent  of this, or approximately 800 million
tons.  It is estimated that, by 1985, production of aggregates will reach 4
billion  tons/year  and  that  highways  will  use  50 percent or 2 billion
tons/year.   Of   the  various  materials  used  in  highway  construction,
aggregates  constitute  one of the major elements of cost-between 21 and 30
percent  of  the  cost  of all materials and supplies and between 10 and 14
percent  of the total construction cost (excluding the cost of right-of-way
and  engineering).  Recycled-• concrete ..can .be used as an aggregate base or
subbase for pavement, or these bases can be cement treated with soil-cement
techniques.  It can be used in econocrete subbases (lean concrete) by using
concrete  mixing  plants and slipform pavers. Recycled concrete can also be
used  as  aggregates in new concrete pavement if tests of new concrete made
with   crushed-concrete   aggregate   indicate   acceptable   strength  and
durability.   (Author)

refractory or water wall furnace with a heat recovery boiler.  Heat recovery
is  a misnomer as actually these systems should be referred to as municipal
waste  fired  boilers or mass burning systems. Municipal waste-mass burning
systems are appropriate for waste quantity from about 200 tons/day to about
3,000  and is a logical alternative to landfilling as the final disposition
of  municipal • solid  waste.  Mass burning has the advantages of 90.% volume
reduction to a completely odorless inert product, potential for recovery of
valuable • heat energy and existing technology to remove dust and pollutants
from the flue gas to meet the most severe environmental requirements.

  According  to  a  recent report from the Investor Responsibility Research.
Center  (IRRC),  450,000 tons of municipal solid waste are discarded daily,
most  of which is deposited in landfills. But only 5 percent of that amount
is  now turned in approximately 350 energy-producing incinerators worlwide.
The  IRRC report estimates that if all of America's annual 160 million tons
of  waste  were burned, the resulting electricity would equal that produced
by approximately 15 nuclear or 30 coal plants.

  Languages: EKGLISH

  Pyrolysis  of  Municipal  Solid  Waste   (MSW)  is  a  promising method of
producing  useful fuels. However, several  large-scale pyrolysis plants have
not  performed  as  expected,  producing   low  yields of inferior products.
Reasons  for  past  shortcomings  include  insufficient understanding of the
fundamental  mechanisms  and  kinetics. Current research is directed toward
improved  understanding  of  the  basic thermokinetic mechanisms associated
with  pyrolytic  conversion  of  MSW.  Initial  results  from nonisothermal
thermogravimetric   analysis   and  bench-scale  experiments  of  some  MSW
components are presented. The effect of heating rate on overall degradation
and  product  formation  over  the  temperature range of 300-475 exp 0 C is
discussed.

  Explosions  are  the  major  safety hazard associated with refuse-derived
fuel  (RDF) facilities using the dry process. A preventive approach consists
of   hazardous   waste  source  reduction  through  strict  enforcement  of
ordinances,  visual  screening and removal of hazardous waste prior to size
reduction,  installation of a water spray and explosion suppression system,
and a good design practice to eliminate the danger of secondary explosions.
Protective    measures    include   explosion   vents,   safety   barriers,
administrative  and operational controls, first aid stations, and emergency
exit  passageways.  Conventional  fire-fighting  equipment  is effective in
controlling  fires.  Prevention  of  fire  through elimination of explosion
hazards,  smoke  detection  devices,  and  administrative  and  operational
controls  should  be emphasized. Injuries may occur as a result of improper
protective  device  and  operational negligence. Traffic control, emergency
stop  switches  for conveyors, shrouds around shredder openings, and remote
monitoring  equipment  would reduce, accidents.  Airborne contaminants can be
controlled  by  reducing  mass transfer mechanisms, creating an environment
less  favorable to microorganism growth, and. mechanical filtration. A closed
drainage  system  with  strategically located hose bibbs should be provided
for sanitary maintenance. The potable water source should be protected with
both  bacJcflow  preventor  and  air  gap  for  the  wet process. Acoustical
treatment  combined  with  vibration  control  and  sound attenuation could
greatly reduce peak sound power levels.   (FT)

  The  competition and animosity between many waste managers sparked by the
topic  of  resource recovery would be greatly reduced if the industry could
agree   that   resource   recovery  involves  recycling,  incinerating  and
landfilling. And neither of these disposal methods is the end-all answer to
our  disposal  problems. The public has perhaps heightened. this competition
between  waste  managers by showing its approval for recycling and its fear
and. contempt  for  landfills and incineration facilities. The public would
probably  like to see everything recycled, but as the following examination
of the municipal solid waste stream (MSW) will show, recycling alone is not
always practical or financially feasible.

  We  are faced with an interesting phenomenon in the way the public reacts
to  solid waste management. Everywhere the public is resisting every effort
by  local  government and the private sector to site, construct and operate
solid  waste  management facilities. Solid -wastes belong to  the public,  not
the  owners  and  operators  of  municipal  solid waste management systems.
Ownership  makes  no  difference,  however, and the NIMBY attitude prevails
everywhere.  The public is totally opposed to the use of the land for solid
waste  disposal. There was a time when they argued against dumps because of
rats,  flies,  fires,  smoke,  litter,  etc.  We replaced the dump with the
sanitary landfill and now the public argues against the use  of the sanitary
landfill on the basis of groundwater contamination.

ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF AN ELEETOOLYHC PROCESS TO RECOVER LEAD FROM SCRAP
BATTERIES,   -
  PHILLIPS THOMAS A.
  USBM, MD,
  USEM REPORT 1C 9071, 1986 (23)

  FED GOVT REPORT   THE ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF A USEM ELECTROLYTIC PROCESS
FOR  RECOVERING  LEAD FROM SCRAP LEAD-ACID BATTERIES IS ASCERTAINED. IN THE
PROCESS,  BATTERIES  ARE  CRUSHED  AND  SEPARATED  INTO  METAL  AND  SLUDGE
FRACTIONS.  THE METAL FRACTION IS CAST AS ANODES AND FJLECTRO-REFINED; PB IN
THE  SLUDGE  FRACTION  IS CONVERTED TO PB CARBONATE AND THEN DISSOLVED IN A
FLUOSTLICIC  ACID  ELECTROLYTE FROM WHICH PURE PB METAL IS-ELECTROWCN. COST
ESTIMATES  ARE  GENERATED FOR A PLANT PROCESSING 10,000 SCRAP BATTERIES PER
DAY.  THE FIXED CAPITAL COST IS ESTIMATED TO BE $14 MILLION, WITH OPERATING
COSTS  OF  $0.15/LB  PB  RECOVERED. A PB SELLING PRICE OF ABOUT $0.21/LB IS
NEEDED TO OBTAIN A 20% INTEREST RATE OF RETURN.

  SUMMARY I^NGUAGE -  ENGLISH
  Languages: ENGLISH

  The  capital  costs of existing and proposed resource recovery facilities
in  the  U.S.A.  are  analysed  as  a  function  of facility size and type.
Empirical  relationships  are  developed to relate capital costs of modular
incinerators,    heat-recovery   incinerators,   rotary   combustors,   and
refuse-derived  fuel facilities to design capacities.  The scale factors  are
compared to published values. Economies of scale are not present except  for
small  refuse-derived  fuel  and  steam generating facilities handling less
than 1000 tonne day.

  The  concept  of  regional government is often maligned as an unnecessary
intrusion  on  the  power of municipalities to regulate and police services
within their own boundaries. Yet, regional approaches to municipal problems
have   a  good  track  record.  The  creation  of  the  wide  area  Chicago
Metropolitan  Sanitary  District a Century ago saved the city from disaster
during   a   cholera   outbreak,   and  the  orginally  unpopular  Regional
Transportation  Authority  in the northern part of Illinois has well proved
its  worth  to participating municipalities. Today, some Illinois areas are
looking  at  a  regional  approach  for "solid waste management" to protect
people's  health  and the integrity of the groundwater and other resources-,
The reasons are economic, environmental and legal.

  The Metropolitan Service District (Metro), an elected regional government
for  the Portland  (Oregon) area, has launched an ambitious effort to reduce
the  amount of solid waste being landfilled. The current solid waste system
in  the  Portland  area consists of: ,1) a healthy private recycling program
which  is  achieving  a  nearly 22 percent reduction of waste, 20 a private
garbage  collection  system  which  is regulated by local governments (half
franchised  and  half  competitive),  and  3') -a  regional  disposal system
operated  by  Metro  which relies on land-filling. The''system envisioned by
the  Metro  Waste  Reduction  Program will, add significant diversity to the
disposal  system, and will, by necessity, involve the collection, recycling
and disposal systems in a coordinated partnership.

includes  305  separate  entries representing some 80 million tons of waste
material  currently accumulating at an annual rate of about. 5 million tons.
Due  to  the State being a prime source of metal ore mining and smeltering,
vast  tonnages  of  mine  tailings  have  accumulated.  Also,  considerable
tonnages  of  electric utility waste products continue to accumulate  in  the
form  of  fly  ash,  dry  bottom  boiler  ash,  and wet bottom boiler slag.
Possible  uses  for  each  waste  material  product  are  cited.   From   the
summarized  inventory,  certain waste products were selected that appear to
warrant further evaluation.

  As  part   of   Metro's Household Hazardous Waste Disposal Project, a pilot
study  was   conducted  in the Seattle area to determine public awareness of
and  attitudes   about • the issues of toxic/hazardous substances in the home
and  their safe  disposal. Metro also wished to determine actual response to
a  collection  program  in a brief, neighborhood test. An initial telephone
survey  was  conducted  in  the  Seattle  metropolitan  area  and  the test
neighborhood. A  three-week collection project for pesticides, solvents, and
used  motor  oil was  run  in the 4000 household neighborhood in February,
1982,  followed  by  a  telephone survey to help interpret project results.
This  report describes  the  preparation,  procedures, and findings of the
surveys and  pilot study. Recommendations have been developed for a regional
education  and   collection  system  for  household  hazardous wastes in the
Seattle/King County area.

  Languages: ENGLISH

  15  million tonnes of municipal solid wastes are to be eliminated by year
in   France.  Three  treatment  technologies  are  usually  used:  sanitary
landfill;  composting; incineration. The results of a survey carried out by
CBMAGREF in grinding and composting plants indicate that the large quantity
of  refuses  to  be  processed  have  a better calorific value than the raw
municipal waste. It is interesting to transform these wastes into charcoal.
The  charcoal  remaining is about 40% to 50% of the initial mass and 60% of
the  initial  energy. CEMAGREF builds and tests a suspended bed caronizator
using these refuses with a view to transform them into charcoal.

  In  the f luidized bed furnace at TWO Apeldoorn, an investigation has been
carried  out- into  the combustion of five different fractions of household
waste.  The  first  phase  of  the  program  is  to-  establish  the optimum
conditions  for the combustion process of these fractions. The second phase
consists  of  an extensive measurement program at these optimum conditions.
In  that  phase  special attention will be given to the emissions of PAH's,
PCDD's;  PCDF's  and  PCB's.  For  a  few  fractions the temperature in the
freeboard  will  be increased to about 1300 degree C. The experimental part
of  the  investigation  is finished. The samples are being analyzed at this
moment.                                              •       ...

  The  principal  aim was to present and discuss the results of the CEC R&D
program,  on  recycling  of  urban  and  industrial  waste and of the energy
demonstration  program.  The priorities in waste policy are implicit in the
title  of  the  symposium:  the,  first  goal  is  sorting  and recycling of
materials  whenever  possible; the second priority is for thermal treatment
of any materials unsuitable for recovery. .

  SUMMARY LANGUAGE -
  Languages: ENGLISH
  Recognizing  that  for  the recycling industry to be really interested in
recycled  materials  these  materials  have  to be collected at source,  the
purpose  of  this R&D project is to find the recycling system which:  yields
the  largest  amount, of  recycled  materials  of  an acceptable quality to
industry;  the  smallest degree of participation from the wasteproducer  (in
order  to  increase participation) ; and the highest possible utilization -of
the  existing waste handling system (- to keep costs down) .  The project  was
limited to household waste, and as households in single family housing were
and  are  subject  to  a  lot  of studies the author focused on multistorey
dwellings.  The  study is still in progress and will be finished by the  end
Of 1984.
