08 04 Wastes from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products)

whyneed

Waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products) is one of the most difficult environmental problems of today. These products are widely used in various industries, from construction to medicine, and their production is accompanied by significant waste generation. This applies not only to finished product residues, but also to intermediate products, contaminated materials and used packaging. Adhesives and sealants often contain chemical components that can be dangerous for the environment and human health. Improper management of such waste can lead to serious consequences.

The problem becomes even more urgent in view of the constant growth of production and use of these materials. In many cases, the waste ends up in landfills, where it can remain active for decades, releasing toxic substances into the soil, water and air. Especially dangerous are water-resistant products, which have increased resistance to the influence of external factors and therefore are difficult to decompose naturally.

It should also be noted that many enterprises do not have effective waste management systems, which leads to their accumulation and improper storage. This creates additional risks for the environment and human health. For example, during the storage of adhesives and sealants, there may be leaks of chemicals that contaminate the surrounding areas. In addition, improper transportation of waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including water-resistant products) can lead to accidents and spills of hazardous substances. Waste management, collection and processing services: Waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including water-resistant products) NPV code 08 04.

Waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products). Code in accordance with the National List of Waste 08 04. Operations in accordance with Appendices 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine "On Waste Management" R7, D5.

A pity for the environment and people

howutilize

Wastes from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including water-resistant products) cause significant damage to the environment. The main threat lies in the chemical composition of these materials. Many adhesives and sealants contain organic solvents, resins and other chemicals that can be toxic to flora and fauna. Getting into water, such waste can destroy fish and other aquatic organisms, as well as deteriorate water quality.

In addition, when entering the soil, the chemical components of adhesives and sealants can contaminate it, making it unsuitable for agriculture and other uses. This is especially true of waterproof products that can be stored in the natural environment for a long time without decomposing. This resistance to decomposition means that this waste can remain hazardous for decades, causing long-term environmental damage.

Another important problem is the emission of greenhouse gases during the production and incineration of waste adhesives and sealants. Many of these materials are organic, and burning them produces large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change. Unburned waste can emit harmful substances during decomposition, polluting the air.

 

Pity for people

Waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products) pose a serious threat to human health. Contact with such waste can lead to poisoning, allergic reactions, and chronic diseases. Some chemical components of glues and sealants have carcinogenic properties, that is, they can cause the development of cancer.

Especially dangerous are cases when such waste gets into water or air, where it can come into contact with a large number of people. For example, when glues or sealants leak into the water, drinking water can be contaminated, which leads to mass poisoning. In addition, inhalation of vapors of organic solvents contained in adhesives and sealants can cause problems with the respiratory system, headache, dizziness and other negative health effects.

Another problem is the accumulation of toxic substances in the body of people who are in the zone of influence of waste for a long time. This can lead to serious chronic diseases, including damage to the nervous system, liver, kidneys and other organs. Given the long persistence of some chemical components, even minimal contact with them can have serious consequences.

Ways to reduce harm

whyneed

In order to minimize harm from waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products), it is necessary to apply a comprehensive approach that includes several areas. One of the key methods – environmental management of waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products), which includes:

  • optimization of production processes to reduce the amount of waste;
  • implementation of modern waste processing and reuse technologies (R7);
  • systematic monitoring and control of processing processes;
  • education and informing the population about the dangers of waste and methods of their proper handling;
  • development and implementation of legislative norms regulating the environmental management of waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products).

It is also important to ensure proper transportation of waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products). This includes the use of special containers (D5) and vehicles that prevent spillage or leakage of hazardous substances during transport. In addition, it is necessary to ensure proper storage of waste in special landfills or in storage facilities, where they will not have contact with the environment.

Special attention should be paid to the operations of collection, sorting, crushing and processing of waste from the production, preparation, supply and use of adhesives and sealants (including waterproof products). These operations must be carried out in accordance with all environmental standards to avoid environmental pollution and reduce risks to human health.
