Hazardous and Non-Hazardous Waste Management You Can Rely On

Minimizing Waste With Simple, Safe, Reliable Service

It matters how waste is handled, and Crystal Clean has the expertise to identify ways you can improve your operations through waste minimization. Whenever possible, we look through for opportunities to manage the waste in an environmentally sustainable way.

Waste doesn’t need to end up in a landfill. The methods utilized in the disposal of waste can create an impactful change on the environment. One of Crystal Clean core values is in reusing, recycling, and re-refining materials which are put back into the supply chain. Our commitment to sustainability begins with the waste materials we collect. Whenever possible, the waste will be recycled, reused, or implemented in a waste-to-energy process. By providing premier, sustainable, and cost-effective services, we continue to protect the earth’s resources and help the business world run cleaner. 

Waste Disposal Methods Include:

Waste-To-Energy Recovery

Crystal Clean’s waste-to-energy recovery process takes non-hazardous waste and safely converts it into energy by using it as fuel to generate electricity, reducing the environmental impact of waste. Crystal Clean will collect and transport your non-hazardous waste to an audited and approved waste-to-energy facility to be be burned in an industrial furnace to generate steam, which spins large turbines and generates electricity.

Solidification

Solidification takes liquid and semi-solid non-hazardous waste and stabilizes them into a solid, lowering the environmental concerns of landfill disposal and providing the possibility for use in a waste-to-energy program. Crystal Clean will collect and transport your non-hazardous waste to approved wastewater treatment facilities to undergo the solidification process before final disposal.

Supplemental Fuel

Hazardous and Non-hazardous wastes can be blended together at fuel blending facilities to transform liquid, sludge, and solid wastes into supplemental fuels used in manufacturing processes. Much of the hazardous waste Crystal Clean collects from its generators is approved into fuel blending and processed in kiln operations to manufacture cement.

Thermal Destruction and Incineration

Thermal destruction and incineration uses high temperatures to destroy hazardous and non-hazardous wastes and its constituents, reducing the amount of waste to goes to landfills. This disposal method can be used to incinerate liquid, sludge, and solid wastes. Crystal Clean will collect and transport your non-hazardous waste to an audited and approved facility for thermal destruction or incineration.

Landfill Neutralization

Hazardous wastes that only exhibit corrosive characteristics are eligible for neutralization treatment. Crystal Clean will collect and transport hazardous wastes to an audited and approved facility to neutralize the corrosive characteristics of the hazardous wastes. After undergoing neutralization, the waste is transported to an audited RCRA Hazardous Landfill (Subtitle C) for final disposal.

Landfill Stabilization

Crystal Clean offers cost-effective and safe landfill disposal of hazardous wastes through a stabilization process. Crystal Clean collects and transports hazardous waste to an audited and approved facility to undergo a stabilization process to prepare it for landfill disposal. Once stabilized, the waste is transported to an audited RCRA Hazardous Landfill (Subtitle C) for final disposal.
