14.2 Experimental handling of waste containing heavy metals and PCB
In accordance with paragraph 3 of the third phase of the project within the framework of
experimental works on the treatment of PCB wastes, the following activities:
- Rapid analysis of the contents of the drums on the presence of significant quantities of PCB in
the progress of compaction drum, and as part of work on the treatment of PCB wastes;
- Labeling and sorting of drums of PCB waste was identified by the technical condition of the
drums and the level of risk of inadvertent elimination:
with good body condition - moving on a platform that provides secure storage;
the poor condition of the body - left in place to avoid possible leaks.
Conduct a rapid analysis was carried out well-known simple method used to determine the
organochlorine compounds. To this end, the drum of the surveyed were selected by means of a
siphon 30 - 50 ml of fluid and she was transferred to the process module for analysis.
In the analysis of used copper wire and an alcohol burner. Before beginning the analysis of
copper wire burned in the fire of the stove up to as long as the color of the flame disappears
green. Then the wire was immersed in the liquid under study and entered into the flames. The
presence of green color in the flame indicates the presence of organochlorine compounds in
waste.
To confirm the results of a qualitative color reaction in addition to 2 ml of liquid was added
dropwise 2-3 drops of 1% aqueous solution of silver nitrate. In the event that a white precipitate,
which indicates the presence of organochlorine compounds, this sample was identified as "PCB
waste", and the drum itself is labeled with white paint and, depending on the technical state or
moved to a new site or left in place.
As part of the treatment of PCB wastes Severnaya Bay was mapped 12 sites (accumulations of
drums and some drums), where the results of express-analysis there is a suspicion of the
presence of PCB. These drums were marked with white paint. In the case of finding the drums of
PCB among empty drums and their relatively large clusters, there was a common border of the
cluster. Results of sampling are shown in Table 14.2
