520 _aExamines the impact of the integrated pollution prevention and control (IPPC) regime on the operation of hazardous waste treatment facilities and how it will bring major changes to the waste treatment market. IPPC builds on the requirements of the landfill directive (Directive 99/31/EC) and the Hazardous Waste Regulations (England and Wales) 2005 to improve environmental performance. The main changes it brings involve controlling emissions to air, sewer and groundwater using best available techniques. Summarises the range of hazardous waste treatment techniques. Looks at the IPPC preparedness of key players in the sector and the cost implications to smaller companies seeking compliance. Concludes that IPPC will reduce the number of treatment sites and operators and raise costs for waste producers but will make the disposal process safer and more environmentally responsible. Tables cover outstanding permit applications for hazardous waste treatment plants and pollution prevention and control permits issued for hazardous waste treatment sites.
