The government needs to ban CCA treated wood, as is the case in other countries 2. CCA wood currently in use/ coming out of use needs to be diverted from land fills (that may have long term leaching problems etc), mixed with untreated wood waste and burnt in approved power generating furnaces with appropriate particulate filtration systems(few exist today in NZ - more are needed). This will release embodied energy from the wood and complete the life cycle of the product in a clean and controlled manner. 3. There needs to be a change in acceptance process in NZ for alternative preservative systems. At the moment we are boxed into a very small number of relatively bad (environmentally/ health) options under NZS3640. Other new generation wood preservatives available globally today have much simpler disposal profiles eg: can be burnt in regular furnaces or biodegrade in land fill safely There is limited opportunity to recycle CCA treated wood due to toxicity issues- this is primarily an end of product life issue (not in service)

We have had some success in trials using such techniques. I'm happy to provide more information to whoever requires it.
