Hazardous waste incinerator must have the capacity of not less than 100 kg/hour, except the cases in which reports on environmental impact assessment are approved or licenses are issued before June 1, 2011. b) Gas emissions from co-processing of hazardous wastes in cement kilns must conform to provisions laid down in the National environmental regulations concerning co-processing of hazardous wastes in cement kilns. c) Products collected from hazardous waste solidification or stabilization processes must comply with provisions laid down in the National environmental regulations regarding hazardous waste thresholds. d) Encapsulating hazardous wastes in concrete tanks or containers (also called encapsulation tank) must meet the following requirements: - Encapsulation tanks shall take the three forms such as underground, semi-buried and surface tanks. - The bottom size of each tank shall not exceed 100 m2 and the height of each tank shall not exceed 05 m. Where there is more than one tank, these tanks must be constructed without a shared wall, except when total size of tanks is less than 100 m2. - The wall and bottom of an encapsulation tank must be made of rigid and impermeable steel- reinforced concrete (beam girders should be used as necessary to increase load bearing capacity) and should be constructed on reinforced soil (piles should be used in case of weak soil) in order to prevent any depression resulting in cracks or collapses, leaks and permeation in accordance with technical construction regulations and standards. A lining layer should be constructed around walls (the sub-surface part of a tank) and underneath the tank bottom, at least including the following materials: clay with permeability coefficient K ≤ 10-7 cm/s tightly compressed to have a thickness of ≥ 60 cm; membrane made of HDPE, PVC, butyl rubber, neoprene synthetic rubber or equivalent material with ≥ 02 mm thickness. - The encapsulation tank must be roofed to prevent sunlight or rain for the entire tank surface, and solutions to preventing wind from directly getting inside each tank must be available from the stage of operation to that of closing of each tank. - After being filled, each tank must be closed by a rigid and impermeable reinforced concrete cover under the provisions of technical regulations or standards concerning construction; such cover must be spread over the entire surface of this tank to completely prevent any leakage or permeation; the cover of each tank must have an additional lining layer as referred to in subparagraph 4 paragraph d clause 2 section V of this Appendix. - If the tank surface, after being tightly closed, is used for other purposes (except roads for transport vehicles), the weight of objects laying above the tank surface shall not exceed 25% of its bearing capacity as calculated in advance. 3. During the period when the Technical environmental regulations on hazardous waste landfills are not available, design and construction of a hazardous waste landfill must comply with contents of reports on environmental impact assessment, decisions on approval of such reports on the basis of the construction standards TCXDVN 320:2004 regarding hazardous waste landfills – Design standards. Operation of hazardous waste landfills must conform to contents of licenses for hazardous waste treatment on the basis of the Decision No. 60/2002/QD-BKHCNMT dated August 7, 2002 of the Minister of Natural Resources and Environment providing the technical guidance on disposal and burial of hazardous wastes. 4. The area for installation of hazardous waste treatment systems or equipment must be equipped with the followings: a) Fire safety equipment (at least including foam fire extinguishers and fire extinguishing and sand) under the instructions of competent regulatory authorities regarding fire safety and protection as referred to in legislative regulations on fire safety. b) Absorbent materials (such as dry sand or sawdust) and shovels used in case of spillages, leakages or overflows of liquid hazardous wastes. c) First aid kit. First aid boxes, and emergency baking soda containers used for neutralizing acid burns in case of treatment of wastes having acid properties, must be kept in place. d) Communications devices (fixed telephones). dd) Alarming systems (such as sirens, horns, bells, alarms and loudspeakers). e) Fire escape maps and instructions (fire exit or escape signs) must be installed at all visible points of corridors, passageways or aisles. g) Simplified instruction boards regarding safe operation procedures for these systems or equipment, and emergency response processes (including the list of telephone numbers of environmental regulators, police, emergency and fire fighting authorities within local jurisdictions), internal rules of labor safety and health protection (including orders for use of personal protective equipment). They must have proper measurement and must be visible to operators, and must be clear, easy to read and unblurred. 5. With respect to hazardous waste systems or equipment items used for high-temperature treatment of ignitable or explosive hazardous wastes, an alarming and automatic shutdown system used in case of unsafe operations must be operated in parallel with the manual one. VI. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION WORKS AND MEASURES 1. Have environmental protection works to treat exhaust gases emitted from all operations taking place at hazardous waste treatment and transit premises (where appropriate) to ensure conformity with the prevailing Technical environmental regulations before discharge of these gases out into the surrounding environment, or adopt other exhaust gas control measures. 2. Have environmental protection works to treat sewage emitted from all operations taking place at hazardous waste treatment and transit premises (where appropriate) to ensure conformity with the prevailing Technical environmental regulations before discharge of these sewage out into the surrounding environment, or adopt other sewage control measures. 3. Areas where environmental protection works are constructed for treatment of exhaust gases or sewage must have notice boards of simplified instructions on safe operation processes which have proper size and position to be visible to operators, are printed in a clear, readable and unblurred manner. 4. Provide either forced or natural ventilation, or air conditioning measures, inside warehouses, factories to reduce harmful dusts, odor or gases, and maintain the temperature of less than 35°C (except when the outdoor temperature is higher than 35°C.) 5. Have noise and vibration control measures in case of such noise or vibration produced in excess of statutory limits referred to in applicable regulatory standards or technical environmental regulations. 6. The system or equipment for treatment of hazardous wastes containing an amount of organic halogen ingredient which exceeds stipulated hazardous waste threshold referred to in the Technical environmental regulations on hazardous waste thresholds must be supported by automatic and continuous environmental monitoring devices, except for treatment of hazardous wastes by using solidification or burying methods. In other circumstances, automatic and continuous environmental monitoring devices shall be required upon the request of the authority having competence in approving reports on environmental impact assessment, or of licensing authorities. Monitoring parameters shall be set out by these authorities by taking into consideration practical situations with reference to the applicable technical environmental regulations. VII. OTHER PROVISIONS 1. Notwithstanding technical requirements referred to in this Appendix, equipment or facilities used for collection, carriage, storage and treatment of hazardous wastes in the healthcare sector must comply with prevailing regulations on healthcare waste management. 2. Where there are technical environmental regulations with respect to each equipment or facility used for collection, movement, storage and treatment of hazardous wastes, these regulations shall prevail.
