Production of a new classification of Asbestos Containing Products (ACPs), materials (ACM) and Asbestos Containing Waste (ACW), in addition to a correct identification of landfills where ACW should be disposed of in Europe.
Analysis of the European and Italian legislation, study of waste classification and management in the main European countries, data analysis of mapping of Italian landfills and quantification of ACW disposed there.
Classification according to unique criteria (physical state, substances with which asbestos minerals have been blended, function of the asbestos, etc.). Highlights of cases of incorrect management of ACW in Europe, specifying the Italian ones. Considering the significant inconsistencies between the European and national regulations and the actual implementation of those regulations, this paper provide some precise indications for the proper assignment to ACW of the European Waste Catalogue (EWC) codes. Lastly, suitable types of landfills at which ACW should be disposed of have been identified, in order to assisting the persons involved in ACW management to avoid undue exposition and their improper disposal.
This study reports a useful manual for classifying worldwide ACPs based on their physical state and considering the substances with which the asbestos minerals have been blended. Moreover several clear tables allow the asbestos remediation and waste management operators to suitably classify and dispose of ACW.
除了正确识别欧洲应处置石棉废物(ACW)的垃圾填埋场外,还对含石棉产品(ACPs)、材料(ACM)和含石棉废物(ACW)进行新的分类。
分析欧洲和意大利的法规,研究主要欧洲国家的废物分类和管理,对意大利垃圾填埋场的地图绘制数据进行分析,并对那里处置的 ACW 进行量化。
根据独特的标准(物理状态、与石棉矿物混合的物质、石棉的功能等)进行分类。强调欧洲 ACW 管理不当的情况,并具体说明意大利的情况。考虑到欧洲和国家法规之间以及这些法规的实际执行之间存在重大差异,本文为正确将欧洲废物目录(EWC)代码分配给 ACW 提供了一些准确的指示。最后,确定了应处置 ACW 的合适类型的垃圾填埋场,以帮助参与 ACW 管理的人员避免不必要的暴露和不当处置。
本研究报告了一种有用的手册,可根据其物理状态并考虑与石棉矿物混合的物质对全球 ACP 进行分类。此外,几张清晰的表格允许石棉修复和废物管理运营商对 ACW 进行适当的分类和处置。
