Contents

1. The waste database ABANDA

2. HAZARD-CHECK

3. Co-operation with other states within a federal project

4. Support of waste management authorities:- Waste portraits- Support of the electronic reporting for the supervision of hazardous waste

5. Conclusion


1. The waste database ABANDA


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);


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


1. Selection of waste code

2. Selection ofdangerous substance

2a) Basis: German guideline for application of EWL

2b) Input of own data

4. Comparison of dangerous substance concentration with substance related regulation from substance law and waste law

3. Definition of substance concentrations on basis of

conventional analysis

3a) Accept data from

ABANDA.

3b) Input of own data

5. Result EXCEL sheet

Not hazardous

2. HAZARD-CHECK


2. HAZARD-CHECK


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!


4. Support of waste management authorities

a) Waste portraits(as part of the Information-Portal Waste Characterization IP@)

b) Support of the electronic reporting for the supervisionof hazardous waste


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


4. Waste portraits

Solution:

a waste portrait usually comprises a sub-chapter of EWLwith 4 digits, e.g. 1701

fixed uniform structure for all waste portraits

access via Internet

links to other information and regulations


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


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 ABANDAi.e. link between separate databases via web service


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


Thank you very much for your attention!
