Waste management process

Because generators are the first step in the RCRA system, it is important that they properly classify and identify their waste to ensure proper handling later in the hazardous waste management process. 

LCI, where the system is quantified in a strict format of linked processes. Each process is described in terms of the physical inputs and outputs, both economic (raw materials, materials, products) and environmental (extractions from and emissions to the environment). Out of the total, an ecological profile is compiled listing and adding up all extractions and emissions of the system. An important methodological issue is allocation how to deal with multi-output processes This issue is especially important when dealing with waste management processes and will be dealt with below. 

Issues environmental concerns, human safety, waste management, process inefficiency. 

The U.S. EPA has already established a hazardous waste management hierarchy [20,21]. This hierarchy represents an attempt to build environmental protection into the industrial waste management process. It encourages industries to reduce their hazardous wastes at the source and to recycle rather than treat and/or dispose of wastes to land, air and water. This hierarchy of hazardous waste management is presented in Fig. 2. The following is a summary. 

There may also be certain other undesirable materials in addition to the normal process flow that could be discharged from the unit. These undesirable materials could potentially cause concern if steps were not taken in the waste management process and product treating... 

With this background. National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) conducted a risk assessment for SCCPs with regard to the domestic industrial structures related to SCCPs including production, use, and waste management processes [1].

The disposal of waste is one part of the waste management process. The minimization of waste production in turn reduces the potential for release of pollutants to the environment. Waste minimization can be viewed as a series of logical steps or objectives, which can be applied to any production...
