Aşağı POPs tərkibi səviyyələri və yanmama texnologiyaları

The widely used current limit value for POPs in waste (Low POPs Content Levels) leaves vast amounts of industrial wastes containing persistent organic pollutats (POPs) like dioxins out of control. With this weak limit level, there is no requirement to dtreat these wastes as hazardous POPs waste – these toxic wastes can even be used in construction material. This is how dioxins in wastes can spread and contaminate the environment and the food chain and harm human health.

Industry perpetrates a myth that POPs waste can only be treated with high-temperature incineration, but incineration actually creates toxic dioxin emissions and mountains of toxic ash laced with more POPs.

In fact, some countries are already implementing non-combustion technologies for POPs waste destruction. These advanced, clean technologies are able to destroy POPs waste without dioxin emissions and without generating toxic ash residues.

Learn more about LPCL’s and non-combustion technologies in the briefs and reports below. Also, see IPEN’s Egg Studies for more on POPs and incineration.
