Type of treatment: Final disposal

Description:

Re-use of treated material as road fill or construction material.


Waste:

Stabilized material.


Situation/Possibilities in the country:

No specific requirements.


Interest:

Reduces the demand on raw material needed for construction efforts if non-hazardous can be reused.


Entry criteria:

Characteristics of material output to be ascertained.


Operational constraints:
Personnel, energy, consumables, place, installation, etc.
If test reveals hazardous material, then the material cannot be re-used:
·         Requires pre-processing;
·         Cost of raw material might be cheaper than cleaning of contaminated sand.

Impacts:

Mishandling could result in offsite contamination.


Legal constraints:

Refer to legislation regarding the characteristics of construction/ filling material (physical, chemical, geotechnical).


Efficiency:

Complete.


Cost:

None if waste is usable on a “as is” basis.
