Abstract:
The following review focuses on defining Household Hazardous Waste (HHW), current collection programs established in the Perth Metropolitan Region and around the country. The studies main focus, however, is on HHW disposal options. The methods used to obtain this information involved an extensive literature search on the available published information. From the information obtained it could be concluded that firstly quantities of HHW collected in Perth are considerably lower than figures from other states and, especially in comparison to the U.S.A. It was concluded that for the Perth Metro

Abstract:
Solidification technology can be an effective process for treating a variety of difficult to manage waste materials containing heavy metals prior to reuse or disposal. There are numerous commercial solidification techniques spanning a spectrum of technical complexity and cost. The most common methods include those based on cement or cement/pozzolanic materials. These materials, which are used in many solidification processes, make the technology appear simple and inexpensive. However, there are significant challenges to the successful application of this technique. The morphology and chemistry

Abstract:
Many civic groups and local governments are involved in campaigns to safely collect and dispose of "household hazardous waste." Although it is difficult to define, household hazardous waste is generally considered to be any chemical waste generated in a family dwelling which, if disposed of improperly, may be harmful to human health or the environment. Growing concerns are centered around the disposal of these potentially toxic wastes by burying them in landfills or pouring them down drains or storm sewers. The most popular method of addressing the problem of household hazardous waste is that

Results from the studies of the untreated electric arc furnace dust showed that the solubility of cadmium is controlled by the hydroxide species.
