Noxious Waste

Noxious waste refers to hazardous materials that are harmful to people, animals, or the environment. These wastes can be poisonous, corrosive, flammable, or reactive, and often come from industrial processes, laboratories, or medical facilities. Proper handling, treatment, and disposal are essential to prevent contamination, health risks, and environmental damage. Examples include chemicals, pesticides, medical waste, and heavy metals. Regulations ensure that noxious waste is managed responsibly to protect public health and preserve natural resources.
