Study Notes
- Disposal process includes returning environment to acceptable condition, handling waste products in an environmentally sound manner, and documenting disposal activities
- Inputs and outputs for Disposal process listed in Figure 2.56, descriptions provided in Appendix E
- Disposal process activities: prepare for disposal, perform disposal, finalize disposal
- Prepare for disposal: review retirement concept, plan for disposal, identify reusable elements, specify containment facilities
- Perform disposal: decommission system, disassemble elements, extract waste materials, ensure adherence to regulations
- Finalize disposal: confirm no adverse effects, maintain documentation, consider donating obsolete systems
- Common approaches and tips: consider zero footprint and circular economy, design for reuse and recycling, address changing laws and regulations throughout system life cycle
- Disposal analyses consider costs, disposal sites, environmental impacts, health and safety issues, regulations, and support items
- ISO 14000 series includes standards for environmental management systems and life cycle assessment
