Solid Waste & Hazardous Waste
1. Solid Waste & Hazardous Waste
Hikmat Al Salim
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 1
2. Waste Classification
• Municipal waste
• Construction demolition debris
• Nonhazardous industrial waste
• Incineration ash
• Hazardous waste
3. Regulations
Solid waste is regulated under theResource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
Classification of non-hazardous and hazardous
waste depends on the chemical constituents of
the leachate .
4. A waste is classified as a hazardous if it has a
hazardous characteristic listed below.
1. Hazardous Characteristics:
• Ignitable Hazardous Waste (TRIC)
– A liquid waste which has a flash point of less than or
equal to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) as determined
by an approved test method.
– A non-liquid waste which, under standard
conditions, is capable of causing a fire through
friction, absorption of moisture or a spontaneous
chemical change and when ignited, the waste burns
so vigorously and persistently that it creates a hazard.
– An ignitable compressed gas or oxidizer.
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 4
5. 2. Corrosive Hazardous Waste (TRIC)
– An aqueous waste with a pH of less than or equal
to 2 or greater than or equal to 12.5 is considered
to be a corrosive hazardous waste.
– A liquid waste that corrodes steel at a minimum
rate of .25 inch per year as determined by an
approved test method.
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 5
6. (TRIC)
3. Reactive Hazardous Waste
– A solid waste that is normally unstable, reacts
violently with water, or generates toxic gases
when exposed to water or other materials.
4. Toxic Hazardous Waste
– A waste that contains certain substances
determined to be harmful at or in excess of the
maximum concentration. Some of those
substances include lead, arsenic, and mercury.
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 6
7. Nature of Waste Problem
Moisture within and flowing on the waste generates
leachate
Leachate takes the characteristics of the waste
Thus leachate is very variable and is site-specific -
there is no "typical" leachate
Flows gravitationally downward into the leachate
collection system
Enters groundwater unless a suitable barrier layer or
system is provided
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 7
8. Outlines
• Waste management methods
• Landfill design and regulations
• Function and usage of geosynthetics in landfill
systems
• Durability of geosynthetics
• Future trend of landfill management
9. Source Reduction
Source reduction involves reduction in the
quantity or toxicity of materials during the
manufacturing process via:
• Decrease the amount of unqualified products by
improving quality control
• Decrease the unit weight of the product by
using high quality material.
10. Combustion
• Combustion can reduce the volume of the solid waste
up to 90% at the same generate power.
• There are 140 combustion plants the US.
• Emission must meet the EPA Clean Air Act.
• Residual ash is hazardous material and should be
disposed accordingly.
11. • Destruction of wastes by Combustion
• The method is suitable for:
– – Gases
– – Liquids
– – Slurries
– – Sludge wastes
– – Solids
– – Containerized
• Incineration destroys molecular structure, thus
molecules with more stable structures and stronger
chemical bonds require longer residence times
and/or higher temperatures.
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 11
12. • Incinerator operating conditions must be monitored
continuously. The following are some parameters
affecting the efficiency of burning:
Combustion temperature
Residence time
Degree of mixing
Presence of excess air
• The type of incinerator required depends on the
chemic and physical state of "waste" :
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 12
13. • Liquid injection
– Any pumpable waste
– Converts liquid waste to gas prior to combustion
Kilns
– Used on solids, liquids, and gases
– Many different types (e.g., rotary kilns, cement kilns, lime
kilns,
aggregate kilns).
Calcination or sintering
• – 1800oC and atmospheric pressure.
• – Destroys organics; reduces the volume of inorganics
• Incinerator Performance must be monitored, thus:
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 13
14. • Destruction and Removal Efficiency (DRE) must be
determined. This done by "monitoring" organization.
The higher the figure of DRE , the more efficient is
the incinerator. DRE of 99.99% for all “principal
organic hazardous constituents” (POHCs) is
required.
• – Example: Wastes containing dioxins and furans
requires 99.9999% DRE
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 14
15. • Incomplete combustion – afterburners must be installed
for exhaust
• – Combust the exhaust at higher temperature than the
combustion of primary waste stream. Example: dioxin
and furan creation, more toxic than precursors
• 75 dioxin congeners; 135 furan congeners
• Incinerators usually produce particulates; thus
particulate controls are important. Particulates can be
removed by using bag-houses, and water scrubbers
• Control of acid formation is also important e.g. HCl from
combustion of chlorinated organics. Acids corrode
metals and form "acid precipitates", and acid rain.
• .
Congeners are toxic chemicals that are formed during
incineration. A member of the same kind, class, or
group

16. Municipal Solid Waste Disposal
INCINIRATION
March 20123/9/2012 solid & Hazardous waste 16
18. Landfill
– Landfill implies disposal of waste in the ground.
– 70% of the waste is disposed in landfill and the
percentage has been gradually decreasing.
– The amount of waste actually increased due to
population growth.

Where:
• Test methods are from ASTM, ISO, or others
• Design models from the literatures
• Factor-of-Safety is site specific
44. Function of Carbon Black
• The primary function is as an ultraviolet light
stabilizer to protect polymer being degraded.
• Carbon black absorption coefficient increases
with loading up to ~ 3%.
• In elastomeric materials, carbon black also
functions as an reinforcement, and loading can be
as high as 30-40%.
45. Addition of Carbon Black
• The masterbatch technique is utilize to dispersing
carbon black in plastic.
• A masterbatch is a resin containing a high
concentration of carbon black.
• The masterbatch is blended with polymer resin to
achieve the desire percentage.
46. Carbon Black
• Carbon black content is measured according
to ASTM D1603.
• Carbon black dispersion is evaluated
according to ASTM D 5596.
47. Plasticizers
• Plasticizers is used in PVC to lower the glass
transition temperature (Tg).
• An addition of 30% plasticizer in PVC can lower
the Tg from 80oC to –20oC.
• The plasticized PVC behaves rubbery at normal
ambient temperature.
• However, plasticizer can slowly leach out with
time.
48. Antioxidants
• The function of antioxidants is to protect polymers
from being oxidized during the extrusion process
and service lifetime.
• For polyolefines, antioxidants is vital to the longevity
of the product.
• Antioxidant will be the focus of the second part of
this class.
49. Degradation of
HDPE Geomembranes
Chemical Related:
– Thermal-oxidation
– Photo-oxidation
50. Linear PE Structure
• Linear PE is a graft copolymer
• Each co-monomer creates one branch
• Co-monomer can be butene, hexene, or octene
51. Density of Geomembranes
• Density decreases as the amount of
co-monomer increases
• Density range of PE (ASTM D883)
–> 0.940 g/ml for HDPE
– 0.926 - 0.940 g/ml for MDPE
– 0.910 - 0.925 g/ml for LLDPE
–<0.909 g/ml for VLDPE or ULDPE
52. II. Oxidation Degradation
• Polyolefins, such as HDPE, PP and PB are susceptible
to oxidation.
• Oxidation takes place via free radical reactions.
• Free radicals form at the tertiary carbon atoms (i.e.,
at branches).
• Oxidation leads to chain scission that results in
decrease of Mw and subsequently on mechanical
properties.
58. Functions of Antioxidants
• Primary antioxidants react with free radical
species
• Secondary antioxidants decompose ROOH to
prevent formation of free radicals

(i.e., landfill environment)
– Limited Oxygen
– Some degree of liquid extraction
• Utilize elevated temperatures to accelerate the
reactions.
– 55, 65, 75, and 85oC
70. Tests Performed
• Oxidative inductive time (OIT) for antioxidant
content.
• Melt index for qualitative molecular weight
measurement.
• Tensile test for mechanical property
71. OIT Tests
• OIT is the time required for the polymer to be
oxidized under a specific test condition.
• OIT value indicates the total amount (not the
type) of the antioxidant remaining in the
polymer.
72. OIT Test for Evaluation of
Antioxidant (AO)
• OIT Tests:
– ASTM D3895-Standard OIT (Std-OIT), or
– ASTM D 5885-High Pressure OIT (HP-OIT)
• HP-OIT test is used for AOs which are
sensitive to high temperature testing

• Use the OIT depletion equation to find “t”
ln(OIT) = ln(P) – (S) * (t)
• The OIT value for unstabilized PE is
0.5 min.
• For this particular stabilization package
t = 200 years
80. Lifetime of Geomembrane
• Induction time and degradation period (Stages B &
C) can be established by using unstabilized polymer
in the experiment.
• It was found by Gedde et al. (1994) that the duration
of Stages B and C is significant shorter than that of
Stage A.
• Antioxidants are critical to the long-term
performance of polyethylene and other polyolefines.
81. Future of Waste Containment
• Current waste containment technique is defined
as “dry dome” method by eliminating leachate
from being generated after closure.
• Waste will not degrade since moisture is a critical
component of the biodegradation process.
82. Bioreactor Landfill
“……a sanitary landfill operated for the purpose of
transforming and stabilizing the readily and
moderately decomposable organic waste
constituents within five to ten years following
closure by purposeful control to enhance
microbiological processes. The bioreactor landfill
significantly increases the extent of waste
decomposition, conversion rates and process
effectiveness over what would otherwise occur
within the landfill.”
83. Why Operate a Landfill as a Bioreactor?
• to increase potential for waste to energy conversion,
• to store and/or treat leachate,
• to recover air space, and
• to ensure sustainability
84. Status
• 1993 - less than 20 landfills recirculating leachate
• 1997 - ~ 130 landfills recirculating leachate
• My estimate - ~ 5% of landfills
85. Aerobic Bioreactor
• Rapid stabilization of waste
• Enhanced settlement
• Evaporation of moisture
• Degradation of organics which are recalcitrant
under anaerobic conditions
• Reduction of methane emissions
86. Research Issues - Aerobic Bioreactor
• How much air is needed?
• How can air be delivered?
• What is the impact on the water balance?
• How are landfill fires prevented?
• What are the economic implications?
