• W195223740 abstract "This study attempts to evaluate the existing industrial toxic and hazardous wastesmanagement systems in Malaysia and subsequently proposed a new model for enhancingthe efficiency and sustainability of the system. This includes analyzing the trends inwaste generation, industrial development, industrial production and waste recovery.Evaluation and analysis of policy and management were focused on four main sectors,namely, legislation, institutional, financial and technology (LIFT). Findings of evaluationand analysis as well as other information gathered were used to determine issues andgaps in managing wastes. Subsequently the study developed a model for a bettermanagement system based on ex-ante Industrial Ecology model for industrial toxic andhazardous waste management in Malaysia using ecosystem concept and approach withinthe sustainable industrial development perspective.Trend analysis has been conducted which includes the analysis of waste generation,waste recovery, industrial development and industrial output. Malaysian industry generated 4.1 million metric tons of toxic and hazardous wastes from 1994 to 2003, withan average of 418,230 metric tons per year. It appeared that the growth trend ofmanufacturing in terms of production index and GDP contribution had a positivecorrelation with waste generation prior to 1996 and after 1997. The management ofwastes in Malaysia could be categorized into three activities namely, treatment anddisposal, export to foreign countries, and waste recovery. The analysis of wastedistribution supported the suggestion for the ecosystem approach management. This isdue to the fact that increasing amounts of toxic and hazardous waste has been recoveredfollowing the adoption of waste recycling and resource efficiency initiatives. The amountof waste being recovered has doubled from 120,570 metric tons in 2000 to 250,260metric tons in year 2003. In terms of percentage of waste recovery represented 34.99%for 2000 and 54.30% for 2003, respectively of total wastes generated with estimatedvalue of RM 2.83 billion.Further investigation and analysis has been performed to determine the applicability ofecosystem approach for toxic and hazardous management in Malaysia. Policy andmanagement analyses were conducted to examine the importance of the factors based onLIFT sectors. These identified factors were adopted as the main components towards thedevelopment of an ex-ante Industrial Ecology model for a better toxic and hazardouswaste management in Malaysia. The model was created as an ecosystem encompassingfour habitats. Each of these habitats has its own role, function and service as well as thenetworks between the habitats improves the ecosystem efficiency. Essentially the ex-antemodel ecosystem focused on managing the flow of waste as a resource with the maintarget being to increase the cycle of waste to resources and to reduce the flow ofresources to waste. In essence it promotes more pro-active roles by industry and business and helps to enhance their environmental image thus increasing consumer confidence intheir products and therefore sales. The overall finding of the present study clearlyindicates that ecosystem approach proved to be useful. The benefits includeminimization of waste disposals to the environment, reduction of dependency on naturalresources such as land use for disposal sites and enhancement of efficient monitoring andenforcement activity. Finally all these benefits would lead to increased benefits togovernment and the society in terms of achieving sustainable industrial development inMalaysia." @default.
