Physico-Chemical Analysis of Hazardous Waste

Physico-Chemical Analysis of Hazardous Waste determines the composition and properties of waste to support safe handling, treatment, and disposal. The analysis covers key parameters such as pH, moisture content, calorific value, heavy metals, toxicity characteristics, and reactivity. It follows standard methods and regulatory guidance from the Central Pollution Control Board. Results enable accurate classification of waste and identification of appropriate treatment or disposal methods. The analysis also supports compliance with hazardous waste rules and documentation requirements. It helps assess environmental risks and ensures safe storage and transportation. This provides a reliable basis for regulatory approvals and efficient waste management.

What is the service: Laboratory analysis of hazardous waste to determine its chemical and physical properties.

Who needs it: Hazardous waste generators and handlers.

Scope of service: We provide complete sampling and analysis coordination. Our certified professionals will conduct scientifically sound sampling of your hazardous waste as per protocol. We coordinate with accredited laboratories to perform a full suite of analyses (pH, flash point, reactivity, ignitability, toxicity characteristic leaching procedure - TCLP for heavy metals/organics) to classify the waste correctly and determine appropriate disposal options.

Process flow: Site visit and development of a waste sampling plan → Safe collection of representative waste samples using appropriate PPE and containers → Preservation, labeling, and chain-of-custody documentation → Dispatch to NABL-accredited laboratory for comprehensive analysis → Review and interpretation of laboratory reports → Preparation of a waste characterization summary report.
