WASTE MANAGEMENT
Part 1
Disposal and recovery under Article 7(2)
D9 |
Physico-chemical treatment. |
D10 |
Incineration on land. |
R1 |
Use principally as a fuel or other means to generate energy, excluding waste containing PCBs. |
R4 |
Recycling/reclamation of metals and metal compounds, under the following conditions: The operations are restricted to residues from iron- and steel-making processes such as dusts or sludges from gas treatment or mill scale or zinc-containing filter dusts from steelworks, dusts from gas cleaning systems of copper smelters and similar wastes and lead-containing leaching residues of the non-ferrous metal production. Waste containing PCBs is excluded. The operations are restricted to processes for the recovery of iron and iron alloys (blast furnace, shaft furnace and hearth furnace) and non-ferrous metals (Waelz rotary kiln process, bath melting processes using vertical or horizontal furnaces), provided the facilities meet as minimum requirements the emission limit values for PCDDs and PCDFs laid down in accordance with Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council(1), whether or not the processes are subject to that Directive and without prejudice to the other provisions of the Directive. |
