It is reported that, each year, approximately 0.8 billions of industrial waste are generated and disposed of at a broad spectrum of China industrial facilities. Of those, hazardous waste accounts for 8 millions tons. Without proper treatment of it, it could simply cause a huge "penalty" to the environment.

Singapore (January 21, 2008) /China Newswire/ — marcus evans Strategic Industrial Waste Management conference is happening on the 17th and 18th April, at Four Points By Sheraton Hotel in Shanghai. It is a great opportunity for businesses to benchmark themselves against the environmental safe best practices and strategic applications to achieve zero waste.

With the increasing awareness from the government, a series of regulations & rules have been put into effect to restrict companies with the total volume of waste produced. It contributed to the rapid emerging of the application of integrated environmental management system with the process of clean and efficient manufacturing, which focus is now increasingly shifting from combating the damage caused by pollution to preventing pollution before or during the production process.

The promotion of the waste hierarchy and the implementation of waste minimisation initiatives have urged the EHS Managers & engineers reduce its focus on removing or minimising the harmful and adverse effects of solid waste by designing safer and improved sanitary collection and disposal practices and increase its focus on designing cyclic collection, recycling and reuse. At the same time, other engineers involved in product design and materials processing will take on greater roles to improve the design of goods and products that have complete life cycles and use materials more efficiently.

This 2-day conference is meant to convey the best practices on the integrated waste management system with the focus on waste prevention, waste reuse & recycle, energy-to-use, advanced technology and corporate economic value. It would practically benefit the attendees with the best practices on total solution of environmental protection system, aligning with the strategies of cost efficiency to maximise corporate economic value.

Important features highlighting this event are being the cases on how waste prevention strategies are put into practice, how Clean Production is combined into Environmental Protection System, and how waste minimisation program will reduce lost raw material and maximise energy & resource efficiency. At the same time, the two-day program will also address the topics on advanced hazardous treatment tools & technologies and integrated waste supplier management, which is to discuss the issues on supplier sourcing strategies.

It is featuring authoritative speaker, Xia Guang, Director- Department of Policies, Law & Regulations of the State Environment Protection Administration (SEPA). It also presents an intensive workshop by Professor Jinhui Li, executive secretary of Basel Convention Coordinating Center for Asia and the Pacific and Lillias Bovell, president of Australia Waste Management Association.
