Regenerative Energie
The new "Hazardous Waste Management Regulation" was published in the Official Newspaper of the Chilean Republic on June 12th, 2003, being in force 365 days after its publication (i.e. June 12th, 2004).
During the next 180 days after its publication (i.e. until December 12th, 2004), each industrial facility was obligated to present a "Hazardous Waste Management Plan" if the facility generates more than 12 ton/year hazardous wastes or more than 12 kg/year acute toxic wastes. Based on this new regulation, hazardous waste management plans were carried out in two facilities of the most important sectors of Chilean industrial activity: A paper production plant and a Zn and Pb mine. Hazardous wastes were identified, classified and quantified in both facilities. Used oil and oil-contaminated materials were determined to be the most important hazardous wastes generated. Minimization measures were implemented and reuse and recycling options were analyzed. The use of used oil as alternative fuel in high energy demanding facilities (i.e. cement facilities) and the re-refining of the used oil were found to be the most suitable options. In Chile, there are three facilities producing alternative fuels from used oil, while two plants are nowadays re-refining oil to recycle it as hydraulic fluid in industry. In this sense, a proper and sustainable management of the used oil appears to be promissory.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens
- ein Rechtsvergleich

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
