(env. eng., MSc, PhD)
Radioactive wastes can be classified into three categories based on their radioactivity level, half-life, and type of radiation emitted. High-level waste with high radioactivity and long half-lives, such as fuel rods and liquid waste, is buried deep underground or incorporated into borosilicate glass. Intermediate-level waste with lower radioactivity and shorter half-lives, like resins and reactor components, may be solidified in concrete before disposal. Low-level waste such as paper, clothing, and tools which pose little radiological hazard are buried in shallow landfills or compacted and incinerated.

Environmental auditing originated in the 1970s in the US and was initially reactive, focusing on end-of-pipe solutions after environmental damage occurred. It is now a more proactive management tool to evaluate environmental performance, compliance, and management systems. Environmental audits are conducted according to standardized procedures and incorporate reviews, inspections, and reporting to facilitate improvement. They provide benefits like ensuring compliance and anticipating risks while demonstrating environmental awareness.
This document provides an introduction to ISO 14000 and environmental management systems (EMS). It discusses how industrialization has led to increasing environmental degradation and hazards. ISO 14000 aims to facilitate environmental compliance and address impacts through a formal EMS that involves organizational commitment, planning, implementation, review, and continual improvement. The EMS must be consistent with other management systems and address all environmental aspects of operations.

ISO 14000 is a series of standards related to environmental management systems (EMS) that helps organizations minimize environmental impacts, comply with regulations, and improve their EMS over time. The key elements of an EMS under ISO 14000 include identifying environmental aspects and legal requirements, setting objectives and targets, defining roles and responsibilities, training employees, communicating and documenting the EMS, monitoring performance, conducting audits and management reviews, and continually improving the system.
An environmental management system (EMS) brings together policies, plans, procedures, and people to manage environmental issues at an organization. An EMS facilitates compliance, addresses impacts, and involves all employees. It requires top management commitment, follows a continual improvement cycle of plan-do-check-act, and formalizes the system through documentation, roles and responsibilities. The ISO 14001 standard provides a framework that many EMSs follow.

Cleaner Production (CP) is a proactive environmental strategy that focuses on preventing pollution and waste at the source. It involves continuous application of an integrated preventive strategy to processes, products, and services to increase efficiency and reduce risks to humans and the environment. Properly implemented CP approaches usually increase profitability by lowering costs through better resource use and waste prevention. CP is achieved through methods like good housekeeping, input substitution, process modification, and technology changes. It provides economic benefits like quick payback periods and improved cash flows. CP considers the roles of various stakeholders like governments, financial institutions, and local communities in promoting more sustainable industry practices.
