Summary of Hazardous Waste in Bangladesh 2008
Policy:
Draft National Urban Policy, 2008CDM and Recycling has been emphasized in this policy.
National Renewable Energy Policy, 2008This policy is promoting production of biogas and other greenenergy from waste and also providing incentives for CDM topromote green energy projects.
National Agriculture Policy, 1999According to this policy the government will promote use ofcompost/organic fertilizer amongst the farmers to improve the soilproductivity and food security.

Strategy:
National CDM Strategy, 2010This strategy is promoting pro-poor CDM projects on waste sector by harnessingcarbon financing.
Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP), 2005Here EMS has been promoted. To improve the solid waste management situation,special focus is given to segregation of waste at source along with the promotion ofrecycle, reduce and reuse of industrial and other solid waste etc.
National Sanitation Strategy, 2005Its goal is to achieve 100% sanitation coverage by 2010. Here emphasis on resourcerecovery and recycling has been given as top priority to improve urban sanitationsituation instead of disposal.

• A zero waste economy, recognizing waste as a resource andwaste prevention and minimization should be considered asvaluable concepts to guide action on waste
• Waste management needs to be addressed through integratedapproaches

National 3R Goal
The national 3R goal for waste management isachieve complete elimination of wastedisposal on open dumps, flood plains by 2012and promote recycling of waste throughmandatory segregation of waste at source aswell as create a market for recycled productsand provide incentives for recycling waste.

Waste Separation
In general waste can be separated at threelevels:
a) Household and community levelb) In the process of collection and
transportation by municipal workersc) At the waste disposal site by workers and
waste pickers from informal sector.

Waste Separation Absence of recycling industries or buyers for the segregated wastes, the
sorted wastes end up discarded and mixed with unsorted wastes in openspaces or at disposal sites.
At least 80-90% of the total waste can be recycled, whichnow goes to dump sites or landfills in the absence of thepractice of segregation of waste at source.
The quality and efficiency of the recycling plants highly depend on thequality of the segregated wastes. Especially the composting of organicwastes purely depends on quality of waste separation.

Hazardous Waste from Manufacturing Industry:Inventory of hazardous waste generation
Report changes/additions in hazardous waste generation Steps taken to reduce generation of waste per unit of
production. Store hazardous waste for a period not exceeding 90 days
and shall maintain a record including recycling andreprocessing of such wastes.
Waste could either be recycled /reused or disposed of incaptive or common Treatment, Storage and DisposedFacilities (TSDF) available in the country, or be incinerated.Inventories of ‘end of life’ consumer products such as e-waste are also required to be made.

Hazardous Waste from Manufacturing Industry:Reuse, recovery and recycling of hazardous waste
•Industrial associations/industries should explore options/opportunities of reusing, recovery and recycling of hazardouswaste in an environmentally sound manner.• Establishment of ‘Waste Exchange Banks/ Centers’ shouldbe encouraged to provide information on wastes andpromote reuse, recovery and recycling technologies whichupscale the quality of resource recovery.•Introduce payback scheme as part of extended corporateresponsibility in case of lead-acid batteries.•Develop a system for channeling of wastes containing toxicmetals for recovery, such as mercury from thermometers andfluorescent tube lights, cadmium from batteries etc.

Hazardous Waste from Manufacturing Industry:Transportation of hazardous waste
• DoE will develop on-line tracking system formovement of hazardous waste fromgeneration to the disposal/ recovery/ recyclestage.
• Industries have to pay for collection andtransportation of waste for treatment anddisposal out side the industries own premises.

1980s: Industrial Structure Council made the first Guideline forWaste Treatment and Recycling.2006: 9th Guideline published.
The nine guideline targets 35 items and 18 industries,which covers 70% of municipal solid waste and 40% ofindustrial waste.
Although the punishment for non-compliance companies is notstrong, the law defines responsibilities of implementing 3Rson manufacturers.

• Encouraging the setting up of recycling schemes for domesticand trade waste, and conduct extensive public educationprogrammes to promote recycling.
• Promoting the re-use and recycling of particular categories ofwaste (e.g. scrap tyres, wood waste) where economicallyfeasible.
• Encouraging the setting up of recycling plants for wood wasteand plastic waste. Considering tax incentives and financialassistance schemes for the setting up of plants.
• Encouraging industries to adopt waste minimisation audit aspart of good operating practice.
• Promoting waste minimisation in office buildings andindustries.
