ANNEX V U.K. WASTE MANAGEMENT

Part 1 U.K. Disposal and recovery under Article 7(2)

The following disposal and recovery operations, as provided for in Annexes I and II of Directive 2008/98/EC, are permitted for the purposes of Article 7(2), when applied in such a way as to ensure that the persistent organic pollutant content is destroyed or irreversibly transformed

F1 . . .
D9	Physico-chemical treatment.
D10	Incineration on land.
R1	Use principally as a fuel or other means to generate energy, excluding waste containing PCBs.
R4	Recycling/reclamation of metals and metal compounds, under the following conditions: The operations are restricted to residues from iron- and steel-making processes such as dusts or sludges from gas treatment or mill scale or zinc-containing filter dusts from steelworks, dusts from gas cleaning systems of copper smelters and similar wastes and lead-containing leaching residues of the non-ferrous metal production. Waste containing PCBs is excluded. The operations are restricted to processes for the recovery of iron and iron alloys (blast furnace, shaft furnace and hearth furnace) and non-ferrous metals (Waelz rotary kiln process, bath melting processes using vertical or horizontal furnaces), provided the facilities meet [F2 , as a minimum, the emission limit value for PCDDs and PCDFs set out immediately below this Table].

[F3 The emission limit value for PCDDs and PCDFs is the average emission limit value of 0.1ng/Nm³ over a sampling period of a minimum of 6 hours and a maximum of 8 hours. The emission limit value refers to the total concentration of PCDDs and PCDFs.

To determine the total concentration of PCDDs and PCDFs, the mass concentration of a dibenzo-p-dioxin or dibenzofuran in the first column of the following Table is to be multiplied by the corresponding toxic equivalence factor in the second column before summing:

Pre-treatment operation prior to destruction or irreversible transformation pursuant to this Part of this Annex may be performed, provided that a substance listed in Annex IV that is isolated from the waste during the pre-treatment is subsequently disposed of in accordance with this Part of this Annex. Where only part of a product or waste, such as waste equipment, contains or is contaminated with persistent organic pollutants, it shall be separated and then disposed of in accordance with the requirements of this Regulation. In addition, repackaging and temporary storage operations may be performed prior to such pre-treatment or prior to destruction or irreversible transformation pursuant to this part of this Annex.

Part 2 U.K. Wastes and operations to which Article 7(4)(b) applies

The following operations are permitted for the purposes of Article 7(4)(b) in respect of the wastes specified, defined by the six-digit code as classified in Commission Decision 2000/532/EC(1).

Pre-treatment operations prior to permanent storage pursuant to this part of this Annex may be performed, provided that a substance listed in Annex IV that is isolated from the waste during the pre-treatment is subsequently disposed of in accordance with Part 1 of this Annex. In addition, repackaging and temporary storage operations may be performed prior to such pre-treatment or prior to permanent storage pursuant to this part of this Annex.

a These limits apply exclusively to a landfill site for hazardous waste and do not apply to permanent underground storage facilities for hazardous waste, including salt mines.
