Waste Management, Interwaste Waste Management Solutions

Integrated Waste Management

Interwaste uses the hierarchy of Integrated Waste Management as the fundamental basis to every operation. Its successful implementation results in cost savings as well as a reduction in the impact that the disposal of waste has on the environment.

The Heirarchy flows as follows:

WASTE PREVENTION
The prevention and avoidance of the production of wastes, especially hazardous wastes, through product innovation and sometimes by regulation.

WASTE MINIMISATION
The economic reduction of waste volumes by means of different processes
or innovative technology.

WASTE REUTILISATION
The recovery and reutilisation of valuable resources from various waste streams.
.

WASTE TREATMENT
The treatment of waste to reduce volumes and allow for the reclassification
of certain hazardous waste streams.

WASTE DISPOSAL
The environmentally safe, cost effective disposal of waste.
