  1. Landesamt für Natur, Umwelt und VerbraucherschutzNordrhein-Westfalen ABANDA* – THE WASTE ANALYSIS DATABASE AS ELECTRONIC SUPPORT FOR WASTE CHARACTERIZATION Dr. Michael Oberdörfer State Agency for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection of the Land North Rhine-Westfalia * A project for the nationwide implementation of the database, financed by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research Financing number: 03361197A Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  2. The people behind ABANDA • State Agency for Nature, Environment and Consumer Protection of the Land North Rhine-Westfalia:Claus Becker, Sibylle Fütterer, Klaus-Dieter Koß, Michael Oberdörfer • Tauw GmbH:Dr. Marianne Hegemann • The ABANDA working-group within the project financed bythe Federal Ministry of Education and Research Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  3. Contents The waste database ABANDA HAZARD-CHECK Co-operation with other states within a federal project Support of waste management authorities:- Waste portraits- Support of the electronic reporting for the supervision of hazardous waste Conclusion Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  4. 1. The waste database ABANDA Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  5. 1. Some facts about ABANDA • About 49,000 waste analysis stored; • > 100 regulations with about 500 limit value lists stored; • ORACLE database;integrated in the waste management platform AIDA; • Accessible for everyone via Internet (www.abanda.org); Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  6. 1. The waste samples stored in ABANDA • Not for all waste codes are samples stored in ABANDAbut: For some waste codes analytical information is not necessary or useful • The number of samples for each waste code varies • The eternal problem:the data sources Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  7. 2. HAZARD-CHECK 1. Selection of waste code 2a) Basis: German guideline for application of EWL 2b) Input of own data 2. Selection ofdangerous substance 3a) Accept data from ABANDA. 3. Definition of substance concentrations on basis of conventional analysis 3b) Input of own data 4. Comparison of dangerous substance concentration with substance related regulation from substance law and waste law Hazardous Not hazardous 5. Result EXCEL sheet Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  8. 2. HAZARD-CHECK Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  9. 3. Co-operation with other states within a federal project • Birth of ABANDA in 1991 in the state agency NRW • Waste management: competence of the 16 federal states • Financial support by Federal Ministry of Education and Research:2001 – 20042006 – 2008 • Project objective:ABANDA financed and organized by all 16 federal states  Practical value of ABANDA for the waste management authorities! Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  10. 4. Support of waste management authorities Waste portraits(as part of the Information-PortalWaste CharacterizationIP@) Support of the electronic reporting for the supervisionof hazardous waste Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  11. 4. Waste portraits Waste management authorities on the local level need practical and short information about waste: • Classification according to European Waste List • Origin and characteristic composition • Dangerous substances and hazardous properties • Collection, transport, recovery and disposal • Legal requirements and directives Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  12. 4. Waste portraits Solution: • a waste portrait usually comprises a sub-chapter of EWL with 4 digits, e.g. 1701 • fixed uniform structure for all waste portraits • access via Internet • links to other information and regulations Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  13. 4. Support of the electronic reporting for the supervision of hazardous waste For internal hazardous waste transports an electronic reporting system (ASYS) already exists and is still developing: • Until now only paper documents • Authorities enter information of notification document (prior to transport; valid 5 years) into the ASYS database.exception: waste analysis • From 2009 until March 2010 test of electronic reporting for movement document and notification document. Necessary: XML-interface as part of national ordinance Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  14. 4. Support of the electronic reporting for the supervision of hazardous waste We elaborated an electronic XML-interface for waste analytical data (compatible with the official XML-interface). • Future possibilities: • Electronic reporting of all supervision data possible • Link between transport documents and ABANDA i.e. link between separate databases via web service Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management

  15. 5. Conclusion • Waste analysis data stored in a database (ABANDA) may be very useful for waste characterization • Most public employees involved in waste management need customised information rather than expert systems • Internet can be the adequate platform in order to support waste management authorities in their daily work with helpful additional information • The presentation of the waste portraits in IP@ foresees different languages Dr. Michael Oberdörfer Chania 1st – 3rd October 2008 International Conference on Hazardous Waste Management
