What is Waste
Minimization?
+ Waste minimization includes: source
reductionpractices that reduce oreliminate waste generation at the source;
and environmentally sound recycling
practices, where source reduction is not
economically practical.
-
7/18/2019 Chemical Waste Management Refresher Training
17/42
Source Reduction
+ includes any practice that reduces the
'uantity and/or toxicity of pollutantsentering a waste stream prior to recycling,
treatment, or disposal.
-
7/18/2019 Chemical Waste Management Refresher Training
18/42
E'amples of Source
Reduction equipment or technology modifications,
reformulation or redesign of products,
substitution of less toxic raw materials,
improvements in work practices,
maintenance,
better inventory control.
-
7/18/2019 Chemical Waste Management Refresher Training

Recycling
+ includes the use, reuse and/or reclamation
of waste residuals =that may be designated
as a hazardous waste> or materials in a
hazardous waste.
-

( material is
used or reused0
+ if it is used as an ingredient in a process tomake a product or, or if it is used as an
effective substitute for a commercial
product.
