sch.2-sec.61Thermal waste reprocessing and treatment

### sch.2-sec.61 Thermal waste reprocessing and treatment Thermal waste reprocessing and treatment (the relevant activity ) consists of operating a facility for thermally reprocessing or treating waste. The relevant activity does not include burning waste under the Fire Services Act 1990 . In the following table, the aggregate environmental score for the relevant activity is the score stated opposite the threshold within which the relevant activity is carried out. Threshold Aggregate environmental score 3 thermally reprocessing or treating, in a year, the following quantity of general waste— 5,000t or less 33 C more than 5,000t but not more than 10,000t 39 C more than 10,000t 45 C thermally reprocessing or treating, in a year, the following quantity of category 2 regulated waste— 5,000t or less 43 C more than 5,000t but not more than 10,000t 57 C more than 10,000t 70 C thermally reprocessing or treating, in a year, the following quantity of category 1 regulated waste— 5,000t or less 51 C more than 5,000t but not more than 10,000t 69 C more than 10,000t 87 C thermally reprocessing or treating clinical waste or biosecurity waste 51 C In this section— thermally reprocessing or treating , in relation to waste, means reprocessing or treating the waste by applying heat to the waste to change its chemical composition. gasification, incineration, pyrolysis, use of a plasma arc reprocessing includes recycling. sch 2 s 61 amd 2024 Act No. 22 s 92 sch 1 (sch.2-sec.61-ssec.1) Thermal waste reprocessing and treatment (the relevant activity ) consists of operating a facility for thermally reprocessing or treating waste.
