12 03 02* Steam degreasing waste
Steam degreasing is one of the most effective methods for removing fats and oils from various surfaces. However, like any other industrial process, it has its negative aspects. One of these aspects is the generation of waste containing residual oils and fats. These wastes pose a serious environmental threat, so their proper management is extremely important.
Industrial enterprises that use steam degreasing face the problem of generating significant volumes of waste. These wastes can be solid or liquid, depending on the type of process and materials used. Steam degreasing waste contains high concentrations of oils and fats, which are difficult to decompose naturally. They can include residues of chemical reagents used to enhance the cleaning process, which adds even more complexity to their management.
Methods of ecological management of hazardous steam degreasing waste are necessary to minimize their negative impact on the environment and human health. The main problems faced by enterprises when working with this waste include:
- difficulty of identifying and separating different components of waste;
- high processing and storage costs;
- need to comply with strict environmental standards.
A pity for the environment and people
Hazardous waste from steam degreasing can have a significant negative impact on the environment. If these wastes are not treated properly, they can enter the water, soil and atmosphere, causing serious environmental problems. Oils and fats contained in waste are difficult to decompose naturally, which can lead to long-term contamination.
The main environmental risks associated with steam degreasing waste include:
- pollution of water bodies and soils, which can negatively affect aquatic ecosystems and agricultural land;
- accumulation of toxic substances in food chains, which can cause serious consequences for the health of animals and people;
- emissions of vapors and gases that can cause air pollution and deterioration of air quality in populated areas.
Pity for people
Steam degreasing wastes pose a significant threat to human health. Contact with hazardous substances contained in waste can lead to various diseases and disorders. The main health risks include: Prolonged inhalation of oil and grease fumes can cause respiratory problems, including chronic diseases such as bronchitis and asthma. Contact with waste can cause skin irritation, allergic reactions and other dermatological problems. Heavy metals and other toxic substances contained in waste can accumulate in the body, causing serious diseases, including cancer.
Steam degreasing waste. Code according to the National list of waste 12 03 02*. Operations in accordance with Annexes 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine “On Waste Management” D8, D13.
Ways to reduce harm

Use of biological cleaning methods (D8), which ensure the decomposition of organic components of waste by natural means. Implementation of monitoring and control systems that allow monitoring the state of waste at all stages of its management, from collection to final disposal.
Operations for the collection, sorting, crushing and processing of hazardous waste from steam degreasing (D13): the organization of efficient systems for the collection and sorting of waste at enterprises, which allow to minimize the risks of pollution and ensure proper treatment of each type of waste separately. Use of specialized equipment for waste crushing and processing, which ensures a reduction in their volume and facilitates further processing.
Transportation of hazardous waste from steam degreasing: ensuring the safe transportation of waste to the places of its disposal or treatment, which includes the use of specialized vehicles and compliance with all necessary norms and standards.
