Waste Management Process
Waste Management Process

The first step for waste management consist sof a first visit from our technical commercial department where we will get to know the space available to the company that produces this waste.

There, we will collect information on the quantity generated, elements for current collection and we will qualify the type of management that should be applied. Next, and based on the information collected, we information about the management proposal that we consider to be the best.

Depending on the segregation in the waste producing center, we divide it in to:

NON-RECOVERABLE: those waste that, duet o their composition or contamination, are not suitable for reuse, recycling and recovery. In this case, the waste collected by C.T.C. Servicios Ambientales are transferred to the closest authorized disposal center to the waste producing center.

RECOVERABLE: They are those waste suitable for recovery, recycling or energy recovery, and are basically plastics, paper and cardboard, wood, scrap, WEEE (waste from electrical and electronic equipment) and waste in general with a high calorific value. In compliance with the Environmental Quality Management Law, which establishes that no waste can be directly disposedof in a land fill without any segregation, C.T.C. take sall this waste to one o four transfer centers, where it is segregated in to different recoverable types, thus complying with the current regulations

The waste recovered by C.T.C., are the following:

PLASTICS

This type of waste is delivered for recycling to the approved company for the recovery of plastic materials RECICLADOS LA RED, S.L., such as:

  • LDPE such as packaging, coils, pipes, etc.
  • HDPE such as expired containers, pipes, plastic boxes, etc.
  • PP as boxes, caps and other capsules, containers for fruit and vegetable products, etc.

      WOOD

      We high light in this category the pallets, which we repair and market again. The rest of the wood waste is classified according to type, crushed and in this way raw material is produced for consumers for the manufacture of boards, biomass or energy recovery.

      FERROUS SCRAP

      Once in our facilities, they are classified according to type, pressed and sheared according to qualities for their subsequent recycling process.

      NON FERROUS SCRAP

      Waste from urban waste is included in this category. They go entirely to our facilities, which, after a process of recovery and separation by size and type of material, is introduced into a fragmented plant for later sale.

      WASTE FROM ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT (WEEE)
