FOR RECYCLING
 WASTE MANAGEMENT

Waste
Waste means any substance, matter or thing which is generated as a
result of work and abandoned whether it has been processed or
stockpiled before being dumped.

Waste Management
Waste management is all the activities and actions required to manage
waste from its start to its final disposal including its minimization,
transfer, storage, segregation and recycling.

Waste Segregation
Waste segregation is the sorting and separation of waste types to
facilitate recycling and correct onward disposal. Waste segregation
should be based on the type of waste.
Waste from site activities, office and camp activities shall be
managed responsibly.

Waste Minimization Practices:

❖ Elimination or reduction of liquid and solid wastes.
❖ Reuse when feasible.
❖ Resource conservation through materials recycling.
❖ Minimization of packing materials by agreement with
manufactures and suppliers.
❖ Use of excavated soils from ground works as fill material.
❖ Onsite segregation and proper storage of waste materials.
❖ Waste incineration given preference to land fill when practical.
❖ Spill prevention measures vigorously implemented.
 Types Of Waste Classification.

Class I : Hazardous Waste – RED COLOR HAZARDOUS WASTE

Class II : Non-Hazardous Waste – GREEN COLOR CLASS II

NON- HAZARDOUS

Class III: Inert (Non- Hazardous Waste) – YELLOW COLOR CLASS III

 Hazardous Material Handling

when working with chemical

❖ Attend Hazardous Chemical Handling Awareness.

❖ Know where the emergency eyewash located.

❖ Safety Data Sheet (SDS) availability.

❖ Chemical containers should be labelled.

❖ Use of appropriate respiratory protection as per job.

 Class I – Hazardous Waste.

HAZARDOUS WASTE (RED)

❖ Waste Oil and Oily solids (combustible).
❖ Waste Oil Lubricants.
❖ Oily or Chemically (non-sulfur) contaminated
soil.
❖ Oily rags and used or contaminated PPE.
❖ Pyrophoric solids.
❖ Batteries (primarily UPS, vehicle and other lead
acid batteries).
❖ Waste chemicals (non-laboratory).
❖ Fluorescent light bulbs.
❖ Catalyst, molecular sieves, activated carbon and
resins.
❖ Filters: Mercury, sulfinol.
❖ Contaminated drums and containers.
❖ Sludge.
❖ Laboratory Waste.
 Class l Hazardous Waste.

❖ All hazardous wastes are defined as Class I: They

are classified as those, which constitute a high
degree of hazard for public health and the
environment.

❖ Hazardous waste includes, those materials, which

are ignitable, corrosive, reactive, toxic or
radioactive.

Note: Refer SDS Safety Data Sheet which provides technical information to protect workers from
hazardous chemical exposure and to work safely with chemical products and with recommended
PPE (Complete Hazardous Material Training) when working with chemicals.
Class I – Hazardous Waste (Bad Practice).
 Class ll – Non-Hazardous Waste

Non-hazardous waste materials are biologically or chemically reactive in the natural environment.
 Class ll – Non-Hazardous Waste.

NON-HAZARDOUS WASTE (GREEN)

❖ Domestic Waste.

❖ Office waste.

❖ Office consumables: printer and

copier toner cartridges.

❖ Packaging waste.

❖ Food waste.

❖ Gardening waste.

❖ Wood.
Class ll – Non-Hazardous Waste (Bad Practice)).
 Class lll – Inert Waste.

Class III Inert͛ is non-hazardous waste that is not bio-degradable or chemically

active in the natural environment and have negligible potential to cause

environmental harm.
 Class lll - Inert Waste.

YELLOW INERT (NON-HAZARDOUS WASTE)

❖ Scrap Metal.

❖ Plastic Bottles.

❖ Glass.

❖ Construction/ Demolition waste.

❖ Tires.

❖ Insulation waste.

❖ Concrete waste.

❖ Bricks and Masonry waste.

Class lll - Inert Waste (Bad Practice).
 Storage and Purpose:
Waste are stored in color-coded skips/containers. When skips/containers are full, they are emptied in a
waste storage area located outside the plant area. This storage area is usually named as waste
segregation area. The purpose of designated storage area is to prevent accumulation of waste, reduce
and prevention of health, hygiene and fire hazards.

Guidelines:

❖ The storage area will be readily accessible to collection vehicles.

❖ The reception areas will be designated to prevent the spread of fire, emission of airborne pollutants,
odor and vectors throughout the area.
❖ Storage area will be of adequate size and capacity to accommodate the required number of containers
consistent with the waste generation process and collection schedules.
❖ Containers will be marked and selected for the specific intended services and equipped with lids.
❖ Containers and storage area will be cleaned on a regular basis.
❖ Frequency will increase as the waste generation is increased.
 Benefits of Housekeeping.
❖ Reduced handling to ease the flow of materials.
❖ Fewer tripping and slipping incidents in clutter-free and spill-
free work areas.
❖ Decreased fire hazards.
❖ Lower worker exposures to hazardous products (e.g., dusts,
vapours).
❖ Better hygienic conditions leading to improved health.
❖ More effective use of space.
❖ Reduced property damage by improving preventive
maintenance.
❖ Less janitorial work.
❖ Improved morale.
❖ Improved productivity (tools and materials will be easy to find).
 Waste water
Wastewater is the polluted form of water generated from rainwater runoff and
human activities. It is also called sewage. It is typically categorized by the way it is
generated—specifically, as domestic sewage, industrial sewage, or storm sewage
(stormwater).

Waste management will be consistent with:

✓ Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME).
✓ QP RLIC Regulations.
✓ QG requirements.
 Waste Transportation and Disposal.

Transportation
❖ Authorized service providers will be utilized for transporting the
waste.
❖ Vehicles delivering waste to the disposal area shall be covered and
maintained to prevent dripping, leaking, or blowing of solid waste
from the vehicle.
❖ Transport routes for hazardous waste will be approved by Main
contractor and QG.
❖ Ensure drivers training for safe transport and disposal of their cargo.
Disposal
❖ Any waste that may be disposed of off-site will be accompanied by a
RLIC waste disposal form and will be disposed of only at government
approved facilities.
❖ RLIC approved recycling companies will be used for recycling waste
like used oil, cardboard, camp waste and plastics generated from
Project facilities during construction and commissioning phase.
 Environment Individual Responsibilities.
❖ Being familiar with, and complying with, environmental mitigation requirements
associated with their specific task.
❖ Understanding requirements and using PPE appropriate to their specific task.
❖ Reporting all environmental incidents to their immediate supervisors.
❖ Reporting all activities with environmental incident risk.
❖ Disposal of waste generated from Construction and Pre-commissioning activities and
taking reasonable steps to avoid waste generation.
❖ Ensuring that chemical and waste generated
are identified, collected/transferred and stored
for the treatment and disposal in an
environmentally acceptable manner.
 Benefits of Environment Protection.
