The international community is much more concern with the strict control of hazardous and other wastes by cross border transfer. In accordance with existing regulation clause no.38 in the “Waste Disposal Act”, all wastes imported, export and transit, should meet international conventions requirement on waste management, also make the control of waste import regulations. EPA continues to propose to wastes recipient countries to know the transnational transfer and treatment criteria for 6 years, ie, since 2002. The purpose of this year’s project is to visit and investigate how Taiwan’s exported wastes are treated in the treatment plants of foreign countries (i.e., Belgium, Germany, France and Mainland China). Ten foreign plants were visited this year. They are Umicore N.V., REVATECH, Norddeutsche Affinierie AG, CITRON SA, Yi-Yu recycling Co., Kuan-Lun recycling Co., Chin-Sheng-Fu plastic Co., Chung-yang recycling Co., Heng-Tai-Yuan recycling Co., and Chia-Hua recycling Co., In addition, a garbage recycling plant of Mei-Shang International Co. was also visited. During each visit, the waste treatment and pollution prevention capabilities as well as the operation records of each visited plant are examined and evaluated. Besides the treatment plant, its local environmental authority was also visited to confirm the performance of each plant.
The main results of this year’s project are listed as follows:
1. Ten waste treatment facilities in Europe and Mainland China were visited to investigate their waste treatment and pollution prevention capabilities as well as the past operation records. In addition, a garbage recycling plant of Mei Shang International Co. was also visited.
2. Complete of the analysis of current waste exporting trend in Taiwan by knowing the domestic waste exporting organizations and their exporting situation.
3. Completion of the analysis of waste management policy performed by foreign environmental authorities. The comparison between Taiwan and foreign country’s waste management law, suggested for the revision of Taiwan’s waste importation and exportation.
4. Completion of the assessment of Taiwan exporting waste’s treatment and management situation. This study also proposes a law revision to enable Taiwan waste management law to comply with international convention.
5. Mei-Shang International Group’s biotechnology and recycling technology may offer our country reference for waste management. In response to EPA’s zero waste and completely recycle policy, we should build a completed recycling system in the future, and to merge the advanced technology from Mei-Shang International Group to form an “advance garbage sorting and recycling system”, to achieve waste reduction and resource recycling, clean and comfortable environment.
6. To Continuously know the management strategy of hazardous waste of recipient countries, and to enhance, trace and examine the exportation of hazardous waste, to ensure they are properly treated under current laws.
