A hazardous waste profile is a written description of chemical ingredients and
dangerous waste numbers. It explains how the waste was generated and the
transportation and safety guidelines of each waste stream. The profile is used by a
hazardous waste management facility to make sure the waste is properly managed. A
profile is usually accompanied by a sample of the waste so the facility can confirm the
written descriptions. Based on the profile and the sample, the facility will make sure it
has permits to accept the waste and select the right treatment processes for it. Even
recycling companies have some type of acceptance procedure to guard against
receiving non-recyclable waste.
