Recorded Webinar
ASBG Advanced Waste Webinar
This advanced webinar is designed to help environmental and waste professionals better understand Resource Recovery Orders and Exemptions (RRO/E) and Immobilisation approvals. The webinar starts with the definition of waste as it applies to RRO/Es. A look at both land application and use as a fuel and the roles of the producer and consumer and the liabilities for both. Tips on how to avoid liability when making and receiving RRO/ E wastes. Immobilisation approval is not just for landfilling of treated waste, it can assist in reuse and recycling. It then focuses on applications for a Specific RRO/E or Specific Immobilisation Approval (SIA) and use of scientific arguments required to satisfy the EPA to gain successful approval. How it is done, but more importantly convincing the EPA it is a suitable process method being used. Consideration of sampling and concentration compliance issues, tracking and use documentation. The workshop is run over lunch time [eat and train] over two consecutive days [2 x 1 hour sessions] plus question time will cover the following areas:
