Some 6,100 tonnes of Australian toxic waste will soon be making its way to Denmark to be destroyed at the Kommunekemi facility in Nyborg, following an export licence granted by the Australian Environment Protection Minister Peter Garrett yesterday, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.
Denmark has already approved the transaction, which will safely destroy thousands of tonnes of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) created during the production of plastics and solvents between 1964 and 1991.
