One question: IU did not say that this was a model company?. We see that IU wants us even more contaminated than we are. Remember that part of the incinerator and the substation, burned tires in the cement. This is going to turn into a binge cleaner and I support IU.
PRESS RELEASE Ecoloxista
The Coordinator asked the prince to revoke the authorization to burn Veguín Tudela in the cement kilns Aboño special waste. We are asking what it has done the Castilla Leon today will revoke authorization Toral had the cement in the Bierzo from 2008 to the citizen pressure impacts related to pollution in the area.
We again reiterate our opposition to the use of some wastes as fuel in cement kilns as tire case, we can not accept the pollution that is generated in that process and all of it will be in the process of clinker. Recalling that Asturias produces annually about 6,000 tons of used tires, they are authorized in the Integrated Environmental Authorization resolution 5/23/2008 burn a maximum of 1 / 3 of the tires, or 2,000 tons / year.
should be remembered that the burning of tires generated pollutants, some very harmful to human health, Xylene Soot, benzene, phenol, lead oxide, toluene. It will generate significant emissions (from the perspective of health and environmental) of PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) and benzene with proven carcinogenic effects both, and likely endocrine disruptors. Are a very volatile so easily escape the gas filtering techniques. Because they can cause loss of health even at low doses, and their ubiquitous presence in food and soil, represent a serious public health problem.
A second group of pollutants emitted focuses on the micro particles and oxides of lead and zinc. Although these metals are very volatile elements, the presence of chlorine in the furnace can produce chlorides of lead and zinc, these more volatile substances and therefore has a significant presence in emissions. In addition to the case of lead is accepted as a demonstration of their action as endocrine disruptor, so because of its extreme ubiquity in the environment, we would have assumed that there are no safe limits. Concerning zinc in addition to its effects on health, their increased risk in combustion processes in the presence of chlorine is that it acts as a catalyst in the generation of dioxins.
Of course, in combustion processes generate dioxins, this generation can be increased with the incineration of waste. The thermal destruction of waste is the worst form of waste management for its strong environmental impact associated with, and the destruction of raw materials that can not be recovered or recycled by other processes.
pressures are doing to get cement to manage waste as fuel not only pose a risk to the surrounding and the environment, but a certain loss of quality of cement manufactured. Remember that the agreement of the PSOE and the PP on the proposed incinerator Serin was reduced 25,000 tons of capacity in this project (step from 450,000 to 425,000 tons), to burn these waste tons of cement Aboño. We can not accept
a cement plant that already has serious environmental problems in the process and has doubled in size to become a plant treating industrial waste to the risks they pose to surrounding these materials and treatments, all to cut costs on account of the health of the surrounding. Asturias has to look at what has happened in the Bierzo to think that here we do not want to swallow it elsewhere. Coordinator
