Environmentally soundco-processing of hazardous wastes in cement kilns

Since the early nineteen seventies, the United States EPA, several state agencies, Canadian,Norwegian, Swedish agencies have conducted studies of the feasibility of using cement kilns for hazardous waste destruction. These wastes have included a broad range of chlorinated hydrocarbons, aromatic compounds, and waste oils. Both wet and dry process cement kilns, aggregate kilns and lime kilns have been used for these tests.Current technical guidelines for environmentally sound co-processing of hazardous waste as alternative fuels and raw materials for use in cement kilns conform to decisions VIII/17, IX/17 and BC-10/8 of the Conference of the Parties to the Basel Convention on the Control of TransboundaryMovement of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal and decision OEWG-VII/9 of the Open-ended Working Group of the Basel Convention.
