This document describes good practices for the incineration and other organic matter treatment by thermal processes of sludges. Thermal conditioning is excluded. This document applies to sludges specifically derived from: - storm water handling; - night soil; - urban wastewater collecting systems; - urban wastewater treatment plants; - treating industrial wastewater similar to urban wastewater. It includes all sludge that may have similar environmental and/or health impacts but excludes hazardous sludge from industry and dredged sludge.
