Abstract

This study elucidates the current state of hazardous waste management in industrial parks with a particular focus on Jiangsu Province. The development of the Internet of Things and big data technology has encouraged the application of intelligent technologies for hazardous waste management. However, the concept of considering each chemical park as a large enterprise have been suggested to reduce potential risks from the transportation of hazardous waste, help local environmental protection departments intuitively understand the position of park administrators, and to realize cyclic utilization of hazardous waste resources. We propose integrated management of hazardous waste at the chemical park level. In this study, principles such as integrated closed management, data unification, clustering management, and intelligent technologies were introduced for hazardous waste management in chemical parks. Additionally, potential approaches, such as a unified environmental butler service, an intelligent standard box system, and system optimization scenarios, are proposed and comprehensively explained. These approaches are likely to enable informed, structured, comprehensive, and interdisciplinary management of hazardous waste not only in chemical parks but also in industrial parks in general in the future.
