Waste, amount

As an alternative to these calculations, the registrant may choose to make a generic release estimate. Here, conservative default values are used for identifying waste amounts and fractions entering into the three main waste streams. Furthermore, generic exposure scenarios can be selected containing default release factors and assumptions on implemented risk management in the processes. [19]. 

The aim of the scenario presented above is to determine the emission of the selected additives present in the different e-waste devices into each environmental compartment. However, each appliance has its particularities, and consequently there exist differences among the devices and their emissions. For example, since the PCBs are not taken into account for the televisions, the acid extraction pathway is not considered for this appliance. Furthermore, each appliance involves a different e-waste amount and a different content of additives.

Table 8 shows large differences in bio-stabilization time. The reason is the thickness and thermo-conduction of the barrel wall which caused heat losing. Ahn s research has proven that the wall conduction accounted to 62% of the heat loss [13]. Two-layer insulation wall is therefore suggested. One more reason is the waste amount which was used, 18 kg/barrel. This weight is maybe not yet in optimal volume with the barrel. It may have resulted in inefficient microorganism activity. 

In this study, RDF produced by DSP method from MSW of Hanoi has been reported in details. Results show a potential of producing RDF since the waste amount increases rapidly along with the nondegradable components. For this producing process, the waste amount suitable to the volume of barrel should be taken in...

N early a whole kilogram of waste for every kilogram of product Remember, this is for the ideal case of 100% yield and 100% selectivity. In real life, the E-factor is usually much higher, because product yields are less than 100% and the reagents are often used in excess. Furthermore, in many cases one needs to neutralize acid or base side-products, so the overall waste amounts are even higher.

The americium and curium isotopes formed during irradiation of nuclear reactor fuels are diverted into the high-level waste (HLW) stream during fuel reprocessing. The HLW is thus the biggest potential source for these elements, and R+D activities to develop a process for the recovery of Am and Cm from HLW were started in 1967. A major condition was that the process to be developed must not essentially increase the waste amount to be processed further, must not use strongly corrosive reagents, and must be compatible with the final waste solidification procedure.

The system can provide suggestions for alternatives from the green chemistry point of view as well as a level-of-concern assessment, which presents several concern statements about the assignment of used or produced substances to one or more of the tiers or on the waste amount. The output of a level of concern analysis might look as follows ... 

The possibility of separating batteries from MSW needs to be considered within the context of MSW processing as a whole. Some data from the United States may be of Interest. In 1988 the average rate of accumulation of municipal solid waste amounted to 1.8 kg per person per day (16), and it was expected to increase rather than decrease during subsequent years. (The amounts of domestic waste...

These types of RAP mechanisms are used to demonsdate new technologies or to demonstrate that existing technologies can be used to treat new or different types of wastes. These RAP mechanisms usually entail waste deatment and allow an expedited mechanism for RD D. Both of these RAP mechanisms are limited to deatment of specified waste amounts over a specified period of time.

The advantage of the enzymatic process is, that for every tonne of product, only 0.3 tonnes of waste are produced. In the case of the chemical process, the waste amounts to 31 tonnes. 

Carpet waste amounts to about 2% of the total annual production of 900 million square yards, or 18 million square yards of waste. The dollar value of this waste is about 100 million. One carpet manufacturing operation that produced about 8 million square yards of carpet annually was found to have wastes as shown in Table 7.15 [34].
