Sustainable hazardous waste management focuses on minimizing waste generation, reusing and recycling materials, and treating and disposing of waste safely. Generating revenue from waste is not a key principle of sustainable waste management.

The primary goal of hazardous waste minimization is to reduce the amount of hazardous waste generated at the source. This can be achieved through process modifications, material substitution, and improved waste management practices.

Landfilling is a method of disposing of hazardous waste, not treating it. Incineration, biological treatment, and vitrification are all methods for treating hazardous waste.

Incineration offers several advantages as a method for treating hazardous waste. It reduces the volume of waste, destroys organic contaminants, and recovers energy from waste.

Recovery of valuable materials is not a challenge associated with the disposal of hazardous waste in landfills. Leaching of contaminants into groundwater, generation of methane gas, and attraction of pests and vectors are all challenges associated with landfill disposal.

The primary goal of hazardous waste recycling is to recover valuable materials from hazardous waste, such as metals, solvents, and plastics. This can be done through a variety of processes, including physical separation, chemical treatment, and biological treatment.

Incineration is a method for treating hazardous waste, not recycling it. Metal recovery, solvent recovery, and plastic recovery are all common methods for recycling hazardous waste.

Recycling hazardous waste offers several advantages, including reducing the amount of hazardous waste generated, reducing the toxicity of hazardous waste, and recovering valuable materials from hazardous waste.

Generation of new hazardous waste during recycling is not a challenge associated with the recycling of hazardous waste. High cost of recycling, lack of markets for recycled materials, and technical difficulties in recycling some hazardous wastes are all challenges associated with hazardous waste recycling.

Extended producer responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach that shifts the responsibility for hazardous waste management from consumers to producers. It encourages producers to design products that are easier to recycle, provides financial incentives for producers to take back their products at the end of their useful life, and promotes the development of recycling infrastructure.

EPR does not increase the cost of hazardous waste management. In fact, it can lead to cost savings by reducing the amount of hazardous waste generated and improving the efficiency of hazardous waste recycling.
