Proper Disposal Process for Used IBC Tanks

Hello!

This is Cheoldang Co., Ltd.

Today, we’d like to introduce you to the process of disposing of used IBC tanks.

With the increased use of IBC tanks over recent years, their disposal has become a significant issue. Cheoldang is here to help you understand why proper disposal is essential in various industries and what the correct disposal methods are.

Importance of Proper IBC Tank Disposal

IBC tanks are commonly used by petrochemical companies to store flammable and toxic substances that may harm both human health and the environment. For this reason, these tanks must be disposed of through designated procedures after use.

In particular, all contents except those for food or cosmetics must be classified either as designated waste or general waste according to the Presidential Decree. Remember, failing to comply with these requirements can result in legal penalties.

Residue left in IBC tanks can be a significant source of environmental pollution, so professional cleaning and handling are essential.

Proper Disposal Procedures

To dispose of IBC tanks correctly, it’s important to report the substances used to the Ministry of Environment and local authorities and dispose of the tanks through an approved waste disposal company.

Large and medium-sized companies, in particular, obtain designated waste permits through local environmental agencies and the Allbaro system to ensure compliance. Unauthorized cleaning and sale of IBC tanks or selling them without proper waste disposal are strictly prohibited.

Following the correct procedures for designated waste disposal helps ensure environmental protection and legal compliance.

Consequences of Unauthorized Disposal

Improper disposal of IBC tanks can lead to administrative sanctions and legal actions by environmental authorities. Handling or selling designated waste through unapproved companies is a violation of waste management laws and collection regulations.

Therefore, always ensure that IBC tank disposal is conducted through companies with designated waste permits. Illegal disposal can result in fines and lead to serious issues like environmental pollution.

Cheoldang’s Disposal Process

At Cheoldang, we meticulously clean and separate the liners and steel frames of unusable IBC tanks according to designated waste disposal procedures. Residual materials are first suctioned and cleaned from the liners, then the liners and frames are separated.

• Steel Frames: Recycled as scrap metal.
• Liners: Processed through shredding.

All these steps are strictly managed to ensure environmental and safety standards are met. Each stage undergoes expert inspection, with various measures implemented to minimize environmental impact.
