What is hazardous waste?
Hazardous waste refers to any waste products that could pose a threat to both the environment and human life, exhibiting at least one of these characteristics: Ignitability, Corrosivity, Reactivity and/or Toxicity.
It is a criminal offense to mix hazardous waste with ordinary waste. If hazardous waste is not managed correctly, it can be extremely harmful to both the environment and to human health.
Government guidance stipulates there are four key types of the hazardous waste which must be stored, collected and disposed of suitably and safely:
- Universal wastes including WEEE products, pesticides, aerosol cans, acid batteries and mercury-containing equipment
- Mixed wastes including plastic, paper, scrap metal, and waste that contains radioactive and hazardous components including sludge, resins and some claddings
- Chemical waste include corrosive, toxic or reactive waste, waste oils, asbestos, chemical waste containers, lithium-sulphur batteries
- Listed wastes are determined and divided by the EPA into the F-list which includes common manufacturing waste, solvents, pesticides and pharmaceutical waste, and K-list which refers to specific industry waste from the production of metals such as iron, steel and aluminium, and waste produced in the production of petroleum and similar liquid waste products
