Other motor, industrial and lubricating oils (code 13 02 08*) are generated during the operation of various machines, vehicles and industrial equipment. After use these oils may contain metal particles and degradation products.
Lubricating oils are used to reduce friction, cool mechanical systems and protect equipment from corrosion.
During operation their properties change and contaminants accumulate, increasing environmental risks.
Therefore hazardous waste management is an essential part of industrial environmental protection.
Main sources of such waste include:
- servicing of vehicles and machinery
- operation of industrial equipment
- maintenance and repair of mechanical systems
Hazardous waste storage should be organized in sealed containers.
Key storage requirements include:
- sealed containers
- container labeling
- protected storage areas
Hazardous waste transportation must be carried out by specialized vehicles.
Hazardous waste transportation includes documentation ensuring traceability.
Hazardous waste processing may include purification and regeneration technologies.
Environmental services for enterprises include waste audits and monitoring systems.
A comprehensive management system includes:
- waste generation control
- safe collection
- transfer to specialized processing
