The processing provider can process waste based on the environmental permit for the processing or disposal of waste.

The environmental permit for processing or disposal of waste determines:

  • procedure and method of processing waste;
  • measures for preventing and reducing harmful impacts on the environment caused by waste processing;
  • technical and other requirements for the device operations;
  • the level of energy efficiency of the device in case of incinerating or co-incinerating waste with energy processing;
  • requirements in connection with the storage of waste before processing and the management with remaining waste after processing;
  • the scope and content of operational monitoring;
  • the requirements in connection with measures to prevent harmful impacts on the environment after the termination of waste processing;
  • requirements in connection with the takeover of waste.

After the acquisition of the environmental permit, the processing provider is entered in the register of processing providers ex officio.
