Abstract |
The electroplating industry sector generates of many problematic waste in the meaning of further recovery or recycling. Plenty of generated waste are the hazardous waste. The article focuses on the problem of hazardous substances use in the electroplating sector, in the context of the Circular Economy policy, requirements of the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) and the revision of the relevant reference documents on the Best available techniques (BAT / BREF). This issue was addressed in the HAZBREF project, funded by the INTERREG Baltic Sea Region Program, in which the current situation was reviewed, and there were identified recommendations for good management practices for chemicals containing hazardous substances, and waste management. This paper is based on review of twenty integrated permits issued for STM (Surface Treatment Of Metals and Plastics) facilities in Poland and in-depth interviews of the two case studies operators. The study allowed for an overview of the applied practices and analysis of solutions that can support safe waste management in Circular Economy (CE) context. |
