Understanding Hazardous Materials

Hazardous materials, also known as hazardous waste, pose potential risks to human health and the environment due to their toxic, flammable, corrosive, or reactive properties. Examples of hazardous materials include chemicals, batteries, pesticides, solvents, paints, and electronic waste. Proper disposal of these materials is critical to preventing contamination of soil, water bodies, and the atmosphere, as well as minimizing the risk of accidental exposure to harmful substances.
