This chapter explores hazardous wastes with a particular focus on characterizing the hazard as well as ways to reduce the potential for exposure and risk. Hazardous waste engineering must be systematic and adaptive. Thus, engineering solutions must reduce and manage risks, must be reliable, and must be resilient under a wide range of conditions. In most countries, a waste is classified as hazardous if it consists of sufficient quantities of inherently harmful substances. Treatment technologies and handling procedures are matched to the type a hazardous waste to be handled.
