Assessment of Hazardous and Non-Hazardous Status of Solid Waste Generated at ETP of Bromine Plant for Its Potential Use
Journal Title: Universal Journal of Environmental Research and Technology - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Recently, environmental problems related to brominated flame retardants have become a matter of great concern. Bromine has been extracted from sea brine. The main problem related to bromine production was disposal of the sludge. The sludge generated in the process was analyzed for its constituents and it was found to contain Calcium sulfate which was nothing but crude gypsum. Gypsum is one of the non-hazardous compounds which can be used as a source of sulfate and as a source of silica. It can easily be use for construction and increasing height of bunds of evaporation of ponds. Because of easy availability of gypsum i.e. sludge which was generated from bromine plant, can be use as amendments for reclamation.
