Household waste is typically not considered hazardous waste, as it does not contain the same levels of toxic chemicals as industrial or mining waste.

The chemical industry is the largest generator of hazardous waste in the United States, accounting for over 50% of all hazardous waste produced.

Tailings are the finely ground rock and mineral particles that are left over after the valuable minerals have been extracted from ore. They often contain high levels of heavy metals and other toxic chemicals.

Pesticides can be hazardous waste if they are not properly disposed of. They can contaminate soil and water, and can pose a risk to human health.

Batteries contain heavy metals and other toxic chemicals that can be harmful to the environment if they are not properly disposed of.

Incineration is a common method for treating hazardous waste. It involves burning the waste at high temperatures to destroy the toxic chemicals.

The primary goal of hazardous waste management is to protect human health and the environment by reducing the amount of hazardous waste produced, promoting the reuse and recycling of hazardous waste, and properly disposing of hazardous waste.

Recycling hazardous waste does not typically generate revenue. In fact, it can be a costly process.

Dumping is the illegal disposal of hazardous waste. It can pose a serious risk to human health and the environment.

Secure landfills are designed to prevent the release of hazardous waste into the environment. They have a number of features that help to protect human health and the environment, such as liners, leachate collection systems, and groundwater monitoring systems.

A hazardous waste manifest is a document that tracks the movement of hazardous waste from its point of generation to its final disposal destination. It provides information about the hazardous waste, such as its type, quantity, and generator, as well as information about the transporter and the disposal facility.

Solidification/stabilization is a process that converts hazardous waste into a solid or semi-solid form, making it less mobile and less likely to leach into the environment.

Remediation, restoration, and reclamation are all terms used to describe the process of removing hazardous waste from a site and restoring it to a safe and productive condition.

Superfund sites are hazardous waste sites that have been designated for cleanup under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA).

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) is a federal law that regulates the generation, transportation, treatment, storage, and disposal of hazardous waste. Its primary goal is to protect human health and the environment from hazardous waste.
