Abstract: | The disposal of hazardous and toxic wastes is an area where utmost care and responsibility needs to be exercised. A certain
(and mostly acceptable) level of care and responsibility has been legislated and is in place in most developed economies (UK,
USA, Canada, Europe, etc.). This is, however, generally not the case in under-developed or developing economies, South Africa
being no exception.
This paper reflects on various disposal methods and describes a potentially economic alternative to existing methods of the
disposal of toxic and hazardous wastes. These existing methods are: Disposal in Class I landfill sites and destruction via
incineration. |
