What is Hazardous Waste Characterization?
Proper management of hazardous waste is essential to protecting the environment. Wastes may be classified as hazardous wastes if they exhibit the following characteristics: Ignitability, Corrosivity, Reactivity, and Toxicity. A&B Labs offers Hazardous Waste characterization to help clients determine if waste is classified as hazardous for disposal purposes. Our analysts use USEPA SW-846 methods which are specific for waste characterization. The Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) is a method commonly performed by A&B Labs that identifies hazardous wastes they may leach into the environment.
