Unusable liquid CPs - Incineration . Water Based Liquids Emulsions and mixtures should first be split into oil and water phases. The oil phase should then be disposed of by incineration. Three techniques can be utilised in the splitting process producing split waste of differing quality. This gives split water with high salt contents and imperfect oil separation so that further treatment is required.
Mineral oils can also be carcinogenic.
Alternatively a combination of the above separation processes may be employed by large companies with their own facilities. PCBs and other undesirable products are not present in or formed from chlorinated paraffins either in metal working operations or recovery. It is expected that the other EEC member states and federal USA will continue to encourage the full and proper re-use of waste oils which include the highly cost effective CPs. Euro Chlor supports this. Incineration Studies of combustion of chlorinated paraffins mixed with either waste solids or as liquids have shown that in full-scale industrial installations it is entirely possible to operate without forming or emitting any dioxins.
