The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) would like to inform the shipping community that exhaust gas cleaning residues generated by ships are classified as Toxic Industrial Waste (TIW) under Singapore’s Environmental Public Health (Toxic Industrial Waste) Regulations.
Under the Environmental Public Health (Toxic Industrial Waste) Regulations, TIW must be collected and managed by licensed Toxic Industrial Waste Collectors (TIWCs). Ships that wish to dispose of exhaust gas cleaning residues in Singapore are required to engage a licensed TIWC for the collection and disposal of such residues.
A list of the licensed TIWCs can be found on the NEA website [https://www.nea.gov.sg/docs/default-source/our-services/list-of-tiw-collectors.pdf].
TIWCs can arrange for the residues to be offloaded in packaged form or in intermediate bulk container tanks directly to trucks and MPA licensed harbour craft for ships at berth and at anchorages, respectively.
For clarifications, please contact MPA’s Port Chemists at +65 6325 2428 or [email protected]
(For information about operations in Singapore contact GAC Singapore at [email protected])
