Hazardous and Toxic Waste Management
INALUM prioritizes the principles of reduce, reuse, recycle, and recovery in the management of hazardous waste and ensures that all hazardous waste is managed safely, in a controlled manner, and in accordance with applicable environmental standards.
Responsible Hazardous and Toxic Waste Management for a Safer Environment
INALUM is committed to the responsible management of hazardous and toxic waste. This includes maintaining an inventory of hazardous waste and regularly reporting waste balances to the Indonesian government in accordance with applicable environmental regulations.
Ensuring Compliance in Hazardous and Toxic Waste Management
In line with its environmental policy, INALUM applies the 4R principles of waste management: reduce, reuse, recycle, and recovery. For specific waste streams, including Spent Pot Lining (SPL), INALUM collaborates with licensed third parties to utilize the material as an alternative raw material in the cement industry, reducing the need for final disposal in landfills.
Hazardous and Toxic Waste Management Hierarchy
INALUM applies a hazardous waste management hierarchy that prioritizes reduction, reuse, and recycling (3R) through internal utilization and partnerships with third parties that meet applicable regulatory requirements. Through these internal 3R initiatives and external waste utilization partnerships, INALUM has achieved a waste diversion rate of up to 99.9%.
Anode Butt 3R Initiatives
The recovery of anode butts as raw materials for anodes and reducing agents represents a significant 3R achievement for INALUM, reducing waste generation by up to 36,000 tonnes annually. The resulting anode butt material has been standardized under Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 9411:2025 for clean anode butt carbon used as a reducing agent and electrode raw material.
