Is there a risk that countries permitting co-processing will become a playground for dumping all kind of waste?
The background of the permitting process is avoiding environmental, operational and OH&S risks from co-processing. But it requires capacity building and open communication within the involved authorities, the cement plant operators and the other involved parties. Generic permits shall only be issued for homogeneous waste including waste coming from pre-processing facilities, for example solid substitute fuels (impregnated sawdust, refuse derived fuels, fluff) or liquid substitute fuels. Other waste requires individual permits.
