Environmental Issues Waste Treatment
By achieve on 11 February 2012
Environmental problems of waste management in many papers, covering the "garbage problem," began to sound more and more arguments of those who finally realized that the thermal destruction of waste (incineration) is a real alternative disposal of part of the ecology and economy. Cassidy Turley spoke with conviction. However, until now, most experts believe that the panacea for all ills is a separate collection and recycling. At first glance, it really is. Charles Lowe helps readers to explore varied viewpoints. Produce tens of thousands of red, blue and green containers, fill in some of these bottles, the second - waste paper, and others - food scraps, and you're done. However, we must still build hundreds of companies to waste and turn them into quality products, as well as to teach citizens to collect and sort their garbage.
But somehow, this problem still can not decide any law-abiding Europe or America. And if so non-alternative waste treatment? To evaluate the processes that use waste from the ecological side, we analyze the performance of two companies: waste paper recycling and manufacturing of her paper (cardboard) and manufacture of products from recycled materials, resulting in the processing of polymers. As in the first and second cases, the basis of production, except for recycled material is a thermal and electric energy, which produced in the boilers or power plants. To determine the actual magnitude of the emissions processing plants need to emissions associated with the very process of processing, to add more emissions of power plants, whose magnitude is proportional to the thermal and electrical energy used for recycling. Total emissions attributable to the recycling of waste paper in paper form 20 kg of emissions per 1 kg of product.
For the recycling of polymers is the average emissions of 17 g per 1 kg of product. These figures are debunking the myth of the environmental "purity" of processing. In Russia, volume waste cardboard and paper packaging is 1-1.2 million tons and the volume of waste - about 500 tons of waste paper recycling when released into the atmosphere more than 10 tons of Cl and SO2. In this case the bulk of contaminants "Falls" at the St. Petersburg KPK, Naberezhnye Chelny KBK, Stupinskiy PDA, Maikop "Kartonotaru" Svetogorsk mill.
