Remains of building materials with hazardous substances

In modern construction, a large number of materials are used, such as concrete, brick, facing tiles and ceramics. After the completion of construction work or the dismantling of buildings, waste is generated, which often contains hazardous substances. These wastes require a special approach to management and processing, because their improper storage or disposal can cause serious environmental problems.

Methods of environmental management of hazardous waste mixtures or individual fractions of concrete, bricks, facing tiles and ceramics containing hazardous substances are becoming increasingly important in a world where the volume of construction and reconstruction is growing. Waste construction materials may contain toxic substances such as lead, cadmium, mercury and others, which negatively affect human health and the environment.

Currently, the problem of waste construction materials is particularly relevant due to the growing scale of urbanization. Huge volumes of dismantled buildings and structures generate a significant amount of waste containing hazardous substances. This waste is often not treated properly and is stored in landfills, which only worsens the ecological situation.

In addition, most building materials, especially those used in the mid-20th century, contain hazardous substances that can be released over many years. For example, asbestos, lead and mercury were widely used in construction and now pose a serious threat to the environment and human health.

Hazardous waste management of mixtures or individual fractions of concrete, bricks, facing tiles and ceramics containing hazardous substances is an important component of the environmental policy of many countries. This includes the introduction of appropriate legislation, the development of technologies for the treatment of such waste and the creation of specialized enterprises engaged in their processing.

Mixtures or separate fractions of concrete, bricks, facing tiles and ceramics containing hazardous substances. Code according to the National list of waste 16 12 04*, 17 01 06*. Operations in accordance with Annexes 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine “On Waste Management” D13, D15 .

In order to reduce the negative impact of waste construction materials on the environment and human health, it is necessary to apply a comprehensive approach to their management. This includes operations for the collection, sorting, crushing and treatment of hazardous waste (D13) mixtures or individual fractions of concrete, bricks, facing tiles and ceramics containing hazardous substances.

The main steps include:

• use of safe storage methods (D15);
• use of modern processing technologies;
• implementation of monitoring and control systems.

Transportation of hazardous waste mixtures or individual fractions of concrete, bricks, facing tiles and ceramics containing hazardous substances must be carried out in compliance with all necessary safety measures to avoid their release into the environment.

It is also important to carry out information and educational work among the population and enterprises of the construction industry regarding the importance of ecological management of hazardous waste mixtures or individual fractions of concrete, bricks, facing tiles and ceramics containing hazardous substances.

Using modern hazardous waste processing technologies allows reducing the level of pollution and minimizing risks to human health. For example, the use of specialized filters and cleaning systems helps to remove hazardous substances from waste before its further storage or use.

It is also important to develop the waste collection and recycling system at the local level. This will reduce the cost of transporting waste to specialized enterprises and reduce the risks associated with its movement.

In addition, it is necessary to implement effective systems for monitoring and controlling the state of the environment in areas where hazardous waste is stored or processed. This will allow timely detection and elimination of possible pollution, preventing their negative impact on the environment and human health.
