Abstract
In Taiwan, typhoons usually result in a large amount of waste that needs to be removed in a short time from July to October. This study reviewed the relevant regulations on the clean-up of typhoon waste, including emergency response regulations, organizations and information systems; and we also discuss different typhoon waste clean-up and disposal methods. The results indicate that the parameters other than the maximum wind speed, such as the maximum accumulated rainfall, flooded area, waste output, sludge output, disinfected area and government dispatched attendance reached statistical significance (p < 0.05). Waste, tree branches and bird carcasses were primarily incinerated, while silt and building materials were buried, and pig and cattle carcasses were placed in a landfill with the tertiary treatment of wastewater. This study also reports on the relevant regulations for prevention of epidemics among personnel working in disaster areas. The results can provide important references for the disposal of typhoon waste in developing countries. As Asian countries have similar life styles and are often attacked by typhoons, the results of this study provide Asian countries with the operating experience of Taiwan in emergency treatment of solid waste resulting from typhoons as a reference for them to plan response systems and operation. © 2013 Springer Japan.
