Waste Characterization

Waste Characterization

Waste characterization is performed for industrial wastes to determine if the waste is classified as hazardous for disposal purposes.   Generators can use the following to characterize waste:
  • Generator Knowledge
  • Analytical Testing
Analysis should be conducted using USEPA SW-846 methods which are specific for characterization. Individual waste disposal firms have also developed company specific criteria for compounds and compound groups for waste characterization which may also be determined using SW-846 methods
