Optimal Cleanup of Hazardous Wastes
International Economic Review, 1995Summary: Over the past decade, the world community has focused on the deleterious effects of hazardous waste on humans, wildlife, and the environment. The United States Congress established a ``Superfund'' aimed at cleaning up these wastes. This legislation and the impending regulations have given little explicit recognition to either the opportunity ...

Publisher Summary The hazardous attributes of the waste are usually based on its inherent physicochemical properties, including its likelihood to ignite, explode, and react with water. The hazardous inherent properties of a waste can also be biological, such as the infectious nature of medical wastes, or a chemical compound that has been shown to ...

The Toxicologic Hazard of Superfund Hazardous-Waste Sites
Reviews on Environmental Health, 1997Uncontrolled hazardous-waste sites are a major environmental and public health concern in the United States and elsewhere. The remediation of and public health responses to these sites is mandated by the federal Superfund statute. Approximately 40,000 uncontrolled waste sites have been reported to U.S. federal agencies.

Hazardous waste has the potential to cause irreparable damage to human health and environment. These wastes are corrosive, toxic, flammable, and reactive substances and need proper handling and disposal. This chapter covers management of hazardous waste, its characterization (ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, toxicity) and its analysis.
