Hazardous Waste
These are wastes that are dangerous and harmful to human health and environment.
The hazardous waste management program uses the term solid waste to denote something that is a waste.
**From industrial manufacturing process wastes to batteries. **
It may come in the forms of liquids, solids, gasses, and sludges.

WHEN YOU ARE EXPOSED OVER TIME
Hazardous Materials (Silica, Polymerics and Waste) Course - Lesson Excerpt
Crystalline Silica Exposure
**It is the basic component of soil, sand, granite, and many other minerals. **
Quartz is the most common form of crystalline silica.
Cristobalite and Tridymite are two other forms of crystalline silica.
All three forms may become respirable size particles when workers chip, cut, drill, or grind objects that contain crystalline silica.
**Select the three important words that you should remember to protect you against exposure. **
What you can do? To monitor any adverse health effects caused by exposures, ATTEND trainings, exposure monitoring, and health screening and surveillance programs. Awareness is the key. Know which job tasks in the workplace are prone to an exposure. As well as being aware about the related health hazards.
