Description

This report compares the development of hazardous waste management programs in eight countries and discusses steps taken to foster proper hazardous waste management. Katherine Probst and Thomas Beierle examine two key questions: what were the major steps in the evolution of a successful hazardous waste program, and what role did the public sector play in financing modern treatment and disposal facilities?

The authors analyze country-specific profiles that detail the steps in each country's hazardous waste management program and describe the role of the public sector in facility financing. Based on interviews and secondary sources, this report provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution of hazardous waste programs worldwide.
