1. Scope
This Standard specifies the site selection principle for hazardous wastes incineration facilities, basic technical specifications for incineration, the maximum allowable effluent limits for incineration exhaust pollutants, the disposal rules for incineration residues and corresponding environmental monitoring from the need of environmental pollution control during the treatment of hazardous wastes incineration.
This Standard is applicable to the design, environmental impact evaluation and acceptance of hazardous wastes incineration facilities except those for explosive and radioactive wastes, as well as the pollution control during operation.

3. Terminology
3.1 Hazardous waste
It’s referred to the hazardous waste listed in the national catalogue of hazardous wastes or determined by the determination standard and method for hazardous wastes stipulated by the State.
3.2 Incineration
It’s referred to the process during which hazardous wastes are burnt, decomposed and made harmless.
3.3 Incinerator
It’s referred to the main body device that burns hazardous wastes.
3.4 Incineration quantity
It’s referred to the weight of hazardous wastes burnt by incinerator per hour.
3.5 Incineration residues
It’s referred to the combustion slag and fly ash emitted from the incineration of hazardous wastes and the solid substances produced by the tail gas purifying devices.
3.6 Loss content on ignition
It’s referred to the percentage of mass loss on ignition of incineration slag to the original mass of incineration slag, which is calculated as follows:
