Demystifying Waste Classification Codes
To help ensure the safe destruction of the waste we generate, it must be classified. In line with the List of Waste (LoW) – a legal system used for classifying waste and identifying if it is hazardous – there are a set of assessments, procedures and codes to follow to correctly classify waste according to regulation. Three steps must be followed when considering each piece and type ...

Proposal for a “harmonized” strategy for the assessment of the HP 14 property
In Europe, the decision whether waste is hazardous or not is based on 15 properties, among them the HP 14 property (“ecotoxic”: waste which presents or may present immediate or delayed risks for one or more sectors of the environment). This document describes a strategy for assessing the HP 14 property, based on a combination of two approaches: the summation of classified compounds in ...

How Much Does Lead Paint Removal Cost?
The Blastox blend is $259 per ton. The regular abrasive is $105 per ton. So, you’ll see lead paint removal costs $154 more upfront for Blastox. But, you need to include the cost of transportation and the disposal rate to get a true comparison. There are a lot more non-hazardous landfills than hazardous waste landfills, and that’s the reason why freight is so cheap for non-haz waste; ...

Warren County Case History
A non-hazardous solid waste landfill in northwestern New Jersey successfully used construction and demolition (C&D) debris screenings as an alternative daily landfill cover for six years, until landfill gas sampling indicated excessively high H2S volumes. While the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates an average of 35.5 parts per million by volume (ppmv) of H2S in landfill gas, the ...
