• SAWIS Reporting requirements

Outline

DEA Objectives –

To report on the success of national waste policy in moving waste up the hierarchy

from landfilling to reuse, recovery and recycling

To achieve this objective, DEA needs to know –

� What waste we currently have in SA?

� Identify waste streams requiring intervention

� Impact of interventions on waste management options (R, T & D)

Assessing the success towards achieving the objective, can be

determined by generating the following reports from SAWIS –

� Tonnages of waste landfilled, treated and reprocessed, per waste management

option (D, T, R)

� Tonnages of waste landfilled, treated and reprocessed per generator SIC code

(industrial sector)

Objectives

To achieve this, DEA needs to collect data in SAWIS that

is –

Useful

Complete, i.e. covers all hazardous waste streams

Code Description

RECYCLING AND RECOVERY

R1 Direct recovery of energy from waste

R2 Direct recovery of raw material from wasteR3 Regeneration or rejuvenation of waste (solvents, carbons, acids & alkalis)R4 Recycling of organic substances

R5 Recycling of metals and metal compoundsR6 Recycling of other inorganic materials

TREATMENT

T1 Biological waste treatment (e.g. biodegradation, composting, biogas generation)

T2 Physical treatmentT3 Chemical treatmentT4 Thermal treatment (incineration, pyrolysis, etc)

DISPOSAL

D1 Disposal of waste to land (e.g. specially engineered landfill)D2 Disposal of waste to landfill (e.g. non-engineered landfill)D3 Storage / disposal of waste in surface impoundments (e.g. placement of liquid or sludge discards into pits,

ponds, lagoons, etc.)D4 Release of waste into a water body (except seas / oceans)D5 Permanent storage (stabilisation, micro-encapsulation, macro-encapsulation)

SIC Code

SIC Code Quantity

1. Agric, forest 370 T

2. Mining 230 T

• Objective: SAWIS report on waste tonnages per SIC (Industrial) Code

To achieve the above objective, required SAWIS changes:

1. To a l low for Level 5 to be removed from the hazardous

waste categorisation –

a. A drop down list of SIC codes already exists for

generator registration

2. Des ign report in SAWIS to extract total waste tonnage

reported per SIC Code

3. Report will become effective, only once level of detail of

‘source’ is moved from municipality to generator ID
