DESCPRIPTION OF PROJECT
Starting from an already existing proposal of a central treatment plant receiving the hazardous wastes from the entire country, a nation-wide survey (both qualitative and quantitative) and forecast of Tunisia's generation and regional distribution of hazardous wastes was carried out. Based on the results of that survey, different variants of a national hazardous waste management scheme were defined with regard to technical, logistical and institutional aspects and then compared to each other especially with regard to the possibility of transport cost savings. The chosen variant was for 3 sites provided with reception, storage and transfer facilities for industrial wastes along with a landfill connected to it in the south, centre and north of the country, respectively.
