b/ Solid waste treatment technologies
- Household solid waste treatment technologies:
The following solid waste treatment technologies will be applied in conformity with local practical conditions:
+ Hygienic burial: To be applied to dispose of mixed waste with negligible hazardous compositions in large areas.
+ Composting: To be applied in areas with small landfills and a large volume of organic solid waste;
+ Recycling: To be applied to dispose of garbage which, after being technically treated, remains usable.
+ Incineration: To be applied to dispose of flammable and hazardous garbage of a low moisture.
- Industrial and hospital solid waste treatment technologies:
In order to thoroughly dispose of industrial and hospital solid waste, especially hazardous waste, several technological processes must be combined as follows:
- Supportive technologies for the disposal of hazardous industrial waste, including sorting and mechanical or chemical-physical treatment.
- Technologies for disinfecting contaminated hospital solid waste.
- Incineration: To be applied to dispose of hazardous hospital solid waste and some kinds of hazardous industrial solid waste (organic waste).
- Hygienic burial: To be applied to dispose of ordinary industrial and hospital solid waste; other hazardous industrial solid waste and hardened ashes of hazardous hospital solid waste.
c/ Planning the building of solid waste treatment facilities in the Mekong River delta key economic region's provinces
- Inter-provincial solid waste treatment facilities
Under this Plan, a 20-hectare hazardous solid waste treatment facility will be built next to the solid waste treatment facility of Ca Mau province.
- Provincial solid waste treatment facilities
