COURSE FOR CERTIFICATE ENVIRONMENTAL PROFESSIONAL IN SCHEDULE WASTES MANAGEMENT (CePSWaM) Practical Exercise Dale Time Name THE SCENARIO Alarge Malaysian conglomerate has formed a joint-venture company with 2 multinational company and they were just recently set-up its offices and plants in Malaysia. The joint-venture company, Malaysian Multinational Sdn Bhd has formed three separate divisions with individual operating companies dealing in three industrial sectors that are in the petroleum refining, steel fabrication and PCB assembly industries. Each operation company has its own separate manufacturing plant and each of these plants is located separately. The petroleum refining plant is located in Terengganu, the iron and steel fabrication plant is located in Kedah whilst PCB assembly facility is located in Selangor. All of these plants just started their operations on ‘st June 2011 and all the wastes were generated immediately after five days of operations The detail of the operating companies are as follows : Malaysian Multinational Petroleum Sdn Bhd Malaysian Multinational Iron and Steel Sdn Bhd No, 19, Kawasan Perindustrian Kerteh, Lot 641, Jalan Bunga Raya, 24300 Kerteh, Terengganu 08300 Gurun, Kedah Tel : 609-6011000 Tel : 604-3501000 Malaysian Multinational PCB Assembly Sdn Bhd No. 349, Jalan Damai 13/21, Seksyen 13, 40100 Shah Alam,Selangor Tel : 603-64210000 In producing their respective products, these operating companies are involved in the various types of industrial processes and plant activities of the companies are described behindSeonario 4 Peiroieum refining processes and activities can grouped into the following steps Crude Oil Desalting [emulsifier chemicals Distillation and |Atmospheric Distillation Desaiting |Vacuum Distillation 2 | Downstream [Thermal Cracking!
