Lobanov, E. | Speranskaya, O. | Tsygulyova, O.
Database of alternative non-incineration waste management technologies in the Russian language is developed. It incorporates technologies for neutralisation and utilisation of production and consumption waste, including obsolete pesticides, technologies for elimination of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), as well as methods of disinfection, elimination and treatment of medical waste. The database allows interested producers and consumers to get information on tested industrial-scale technologies; technologies approaching the stage of industrial application; promising laboratory-scale tested technologies with good chances of further development, as well as on underdeveloped technologies with unclear capacity, that are likely to reach an industrial application scale in the case of further research. In addition to brief description of technological processes, the database contains information on relevant economic considerations, waste treatment costs, health and environmental safety data, contact information of developers and equipment suppliers. Importance of the database is associated with the fact that it contains information about the most appropriate waste treatment and elimination technologies for East Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia (EECCA) region from the whole array of available technologies (the technologies were selected at the base of their economic and environmental efficiency). The database is a unique collection of information materials on experiences of different countries and organisation in the sphere of safe waste management. For the first time, the database allowed a broad range of readers to get access to information on some technologies that were developed in the EECCA countries.
