inertjäätmed former
  • tavajäätmed, milles ei toimu olulisi füüsikalisi, keemilisi ega bioloogilisi muutusi
  • waste that does not undergo any significant physical, chemical or biological transformations. Inert waste will not dissolve, burn or otherwise physically or chemically react, biodegrade or adversely affect other matter with which it comes into contact in a way likely to give rise to environmental pollution or harm human health
Good to know
  • The total leachability and pollutant content of the waste and the ecotoxicity of the leachate must be insignificant, and in particular not endanger the quality of surface water and/or groundwater.
  • Püsijäätmed ei lahustu, põle ega reageeri muul viisil füüsikaliselt või keemiliselt, nad ei ole biolagundatavad ega mõjuta ebasoodsalt muid nendega kokkupuutesse sattuvaid aineid viisil, mis põhjustaks keskkonna saastumist või kahju inimese tervisele.
  • Püsijäätmete leostuvus veekeskkonnas, ohtlike ainete sisaldus ning nõrgvee ökotoksilisus ei põhjusta täiendavat keskkonnakoormust, seda eriti põhja- ja pinnavee kvaliteedinõudeid silmas pidades.
püsijäätmed preferred
Usage examples
  • Püsijäätmeprügilasse ladestatakse üksnes püsijäätmeid jäätmeseaduse § 4 mõistes.
  • Püsijäätmed on näiteks mineraalne materjal (pinnas, kivid, kruus jne), mis ei sisalda saasteaineid.

inert waste
Usage examples
  • The purpose of complementing the definition of inert waste is to establish clear criteria and conditions under which waste from extractive industries can be considered as inert waste.
  • Waste shall be considered as being inert waste, within the meaning of Article 3(3) of Directive 2006/21/EC, where all of the following criteria, are fulfilled in both the short and the long term: (a) the waste will not undergo any significant disintegration or dissolution or other significant change likely to cause any adverse environmental effect or harm human health; (b) the waste has a maximum content of sulphide sulphur of 0,1 %, or the waste has a maximum content of sulphide sulphur of 1 % and the neutralising potential ratio, defined as the ratio between the neutralising potential and the acid potential, and determined on the basis of a static test prEN 15875 is greater than 3; (c) the waste presents no risk of self-combustion and will not burn; (d) the content of substances potentially harmful to the environment or human health in the waste, and in particular As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mo, Ni, Pb, V and Zn, including in any fine particles alone of the waste, is sufficiently low to be of insignificant human and ecological risk, in both the short and the long term. In order to be considered as sufficiently low to be of insignificant human and ecological risk, the content of these substances shall not exceed national threshold values for sites identified as not contaminated or relevant national natural background levels; (e) the waste is substantially free of products used in extraction or processing that could harm the environment or human health.
  • Each landfill shall be classified in one of the following classes: - landfill for hazardous waste, - landfill for non-hazardous waste, - landfill for inert waste.

  • defineeritakse kõikide Eesti õigusaktide ulatuses
  • § 4. Inert waste Inert waste means non-hazardous waste that does not undergo any significant physical, chemical or biological transformations. Inert waste does not dissolve, burn or otherwise physically or chemically react, biodegrade or adversely affect other matter with which it comes into contact in a way likely to give rise to environmental pollution or harm human health. The leachability of inert waste in aquatic environment, its content of hazardous substances and the ecotoxicity of the leachate does not cause additional environmental pressure, in particular as regards requirements for the quality of groundwater or surface water.
