What are the Key Functions of Hazardous Waste Facilities?
These facilities perform several essential functions:
Collection: Gathering hazardous waste from various sources, including industrial, medical, and household origins. Storage: Safely storing waste until it can be treated or disposed of, often in specially designed containers to prevent leaks. Treatment: Using physical, chemical, or biological processes to neutralize or reduce the toxicity of the waste. Disposal: Permanently isolating waste from the environment, typically through landfills or incineration.
