Industrial waste management generated by different petrochemical complexes at Pars Special Economic Energy Zone, located in the south of Iran, was investigated. All 10 active petrochemical complexes were visited and generated wastes were identified by a checklist. Petrochemical plants were classified regarding feeds, process, and products and nine representative wastes were sampled. Physicochemical characteristics were analyzed and appropriate management approaches were proposed according to the literature review and the results of waste characterization. The generated wastes were classified as hazardous and non-hazardous according to the Basel Convention and Environmental Protection Agency lists of waste classification. Also, the concentrations of organic compounds and heavy metals were measured to classify wastes characteristically. Comparing concentrations of the most important heavy metals in sampled wastes illustrated that sandblast with Cu concentration of 4295 mg kg-1, spent activated carbon with Hg concentration of 127 mg kg-1, and spent catalyst with 25% Ni content can be categorized as hazardous wastes, due to the exceeding Total Threshold Limit Concentration levels. Based on laboratory results, all industrial waste generated in the petrochemical complexes were categorized into three groups, namely Organic Waste with High Calorific Value, Non-organic Recyclable Waste, and Non-organic Non-recyclable Waste. Finally, management approaches, including material recycling, energy recovery (through incineration), and landfilling, were proposed and a conceptual model was suggested in order to show different routes and final destination for each kind of waste generated in all similar petrochemical complexes.

伊朗南部帕尔斯经济特区的石化废物表征和管理

对位于伊朗南部帕尔斯经济特区的不同石化综合体产生的工业废物管理进行了调查。访问了所有 10 个活跃的石化联合体，并通过清单确定了产生的废物。石化厂根据进料、工艺和产品进行分类，并对九种代表性废物进行了抽样。根据文献综述和废物表征结果，分析了理化特性并提出了适当的管理方法。根据巴塞尔公约和环境保护署的废物分类清单，产生的废物被分类为危险和非危险。此外，还测量了有机化合物和重金属的浓度，以对废物进行特征分类。比较采样废物中最重要的重金属浓度表明，Cu 浓度为 4295 mg kg-1 的喷砂、Hg 浓度为 127 mg kg-1 的废活性炭和 Ni 含量为 25% 的废催化剂可归类为有害废物，由于超过总阈值限制浓度水平。根据化验结果，石化综合体产生的所有工业废物分为三类，即高热值有机废物、非有机可回收废物和非有机不可回收废物。最后，管理方法，包括材料回收、能源回收（通过焚烧）和填埋，
