Reasons for us to support incineration: - Effective - Safe - Economic way $$
Effective • Much faster (time consuming) • Thermal desorption consist more steps Incinerator Thermal adsorptions
Comparison Thermal desorption Incineration Thermal desorption (dioxins) Incineration(dioxins) (chemical waste) Incineration
Safe • Dioxin can be effectively treated at the CWTC • Dioxins will be completely destroyed at 800°C • The level of the emission of dioxins in the CWCT on Tsing Yi Island will not affect human health • The risk of dioxin enter the food chain is low Dioxin
Result for incineration of Residues containing dioxins (March 2005)
Concentration of dioxin release in the chamber 0.08 0.0054 0.0004 0.00065
Concentration of carbon monoxide release in the chamber 150 0.33 0.0 0.01
The dioxin emission standard in Hong Kong is 0.1 ng I-TEQ/m3 which more stringent than the standards adopted in most advanced countries. AMBIENT AIR SAMPLERS
Dioxin emission standard among different countries 0.3 0.02 0.1 0.1 0.08 Hong Kong: the Chemical Waste Treatment Centre (CWCT)USA*1: Municipal solid waste incinerators (more than 35 tonnes per day)USA*2: Hazardous waste incineratorEU: Waste IncineratorsCanada: All new incinerators
Economic • Since thermal desorption consist of more steps. Location of Chemical Waste Treatment Centre Chemical Waste Treatment Centre
Conclusion Incineration Effective Economic way Safe
