Hazardous waste can have adverse environmental repercussions if not correctly managed through proper treatment, storage, stabilisation and disposal. Preventive measures are required for handling hazardous wastes generated within the country from different sources and through imports from other countries to recover valuable materials. For post-compliance with the waste handling procedures, proper knowledge of handling and management of hazardous wastes is required, and therefore aList of Hazardous Characteristicsbecomes essential in this regard. The importance of restricting the transboundary movement of hazardous wastes is also reflected in the HWM Rules, inspired by the Basel Convention of 1989.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parameters for identification of Hazardous Waste<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Until 2016, importing hazardous waste from other countries was allowed in the country. However, this practice was discontinued after the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules 2016 was enacted, which banned the import of specific waste that was deemed hazardous. The 2016 rules laid down a detailed list of characteristics to identify hazardous waste and the standard operating procedure for managing or transboundary movement of such waste. In the following article, we will discuss the List of Hazardous characteristics. By understanding the broad categorisation in the form of a List of Hazardous Characteristics that has been formulated for efficient hazardous waste management as has been based on various hazardous parameters into three classes- Class A, Class B and Class C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Class A<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This categorisation is based on the concentration limit of leachable substances, i.e. Soluble Threshold Limit Concentration (STLC) or <strong>Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP<sub><a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/hw-sw846\/sw-846-test-method-1311-toxicity-characteristic-leaching-procedure\"><strong>[1]<\/strong><\/a><\/sub>)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Class B: <\/strong>This List of Hazardous Characteristics is based on Total Threshold Limit Concentration (TTLC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Class C: <\/strong>This list of Hazardous Characteristics is based on characteristics like<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TCLP, STLC and TTLC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the sake of this article, we will be discussing Class C in particular. This list will help The occupier or generator of hazardous waste and the operator of a treatment, storage and disposal facility (TSDF) identify the waste as hazardous or non-hazardous. Let&#8217;s understand Category C (C1 to C13), that lists the physical and chemical characteristics for identifying <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/enterclimate.com\/hazardous-waste-management-authorization\">hazardous waste<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Class C1: Flammable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Waste exhibiting flammability or ignitability is categorised as C1.

waste, e-waste etc.)annually, the list of Hazardous Characteristics becomes particularly difficult to keep track of. Industrial hubs in many states are the leading contributor to such waste. However, many such industrial hubs do not have an adequate capacity to treat, store and dispose off this waste. There for specialised facilities (TSDFs) that can undertake the storage, stabilisation and disposal work on their behalf are the need of the hour. Apart from laying down hazardous waste characteristics, the Hazardous Waste (Management) Rules, 2016 also encourage the reduction of hazardous waste generation by these industries and promote the recycling and reusing of waste products by the industry or through TSDFs.The Rules also specify import and export guidelines to ensure legal waste transport, storage and disposal. This is why it becomes essential to set a defined list of hazardous characteristics for the generators and the occupiers of TSDFs and adequately manage the industry at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read our Article<\/strong>: <mark><a href=\"https:\/\/enterclimate.com\/blog\/rules-governing-the-transboundary-movement-of-hazardous-waste\/\">Rules Governing The Transboundary Movement of Hazardous Waste<\/a><\/mark><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hazardous wastes belong to a category of wastes containing specific chemicals, metals and pathogenic micro-organisms, which have the potential to damage the environment.
