Method for the treatment of hazardous wastes in containers, received in a Waste Disposal Plant

摘要

In a process for pretreating hazardous waste prior to solidification the waste is received in containers (10). The containers are deposited in a large vessel containing a chemical pretreatment media (9) and subjected to an agitating process in the vessel whereby the containers are ruptured and their contents deposited in the media. Neutralization, precipitation and chemical modification processes are envisaged in the container. After pretreatment the liquid is removed for ultimate solidification.
