Description

<p>Proper waste treatment of polychlorinated biphenyls （PCBs） has been led by the government since 2001. It is mandated for those store PCB-contained products to process them on their own or subcontract their process by 2027. Prefectural/municipal governments are carrying out an investigation targeting the companies who store PCB wastes in order to find further potential wastes that are not notified yet and to promote the completion of their process by 2027. 3. 31.</p><p>Based on our experience of processing over 40,000 low concentration PCB wastes since accreditation. During their process we found some cases where transformers contains capacitors, since both of them have different levels of PCB concentration, they cannot be processed until analysis of the levels for each component is complete. Each enterprise shall play an important role to identify the amount of such wastes and promote the process within a limited timeframe.</p>
