This research aims to assess environment, health and safety condition in Integrated Solid Waste Treatment Zone in North-west of Ho Chi Minh City, assess its current management system, establish an Environment-health-safety management system, develop a strategic management program and supporting programs for EHSMS implementation. This research found that environmental problems in STZ are leachate, gas from landfill without a treatment system, environmental accidents and harmful insects. Most popular diseases types in STZ staffs are ear-nose-throat disease (43% in 2005 and 58% in 2000), and eye disease (28% in 2005 and 26% in 2006). Research proposes environment-health-safety management programs available for STZ including supply of personal protective equipments, development of guidelines, capacity building, and health care.

Solid Waste Treatment

Survey results in 72 mechanical manufactures in Ho Chi Minh City, in conjunction with related studies show that the charge of industrial solid waste – hazardous waste treatment is operated in two forms: fixed or progressive based on the generated volume. Price of collection - transportation - storage - treatment - landfill for each waste composition is widely varying (5-20 times), depending on the agreement between production facilities and service units. Price is not yet able to handle the relationship with the treatment technology, treatment level to be achieved as well as the correlation to the transported distance and the extent of hazardous waste. Methodology for calculating the costs of industrial solid waste treatment by burning method is initially set. Treatment costs per ton of industrial solid waste of the mechanical industry are determined. The formulas are specifically built for each case of emissions, corresponding to different levels of load transportation.
