The ultimate concern with wastes has to do with their toxic effects on animals,
plants, and microbes. Virtually all hazardous waste substances are poisonous to a
degree, some extremely so. The toxicity of a waste is a function of many factors,
including the chemical nature of the waste, the matrix in which it is contained,
circumstances of exposure, the species exposed, manner of exposure, degree of
exposure, and time of exposure. The toxicities of hazardous wastes are discussed in
more detail in Chapters 22 and 23.
