Hazardous Waste
Hazardous waste requires controlled handling, transport and processing, but many hazardous material streams still contain recoverable resources. APT connects authorised companies, recyclers and processors to support safe treatment, recovery and compliant circular use of hazardous waste streams.

Manage and recover hazardous waste streams
Hazardous waste can arise from manufacturing, chemical processing, maintenance, construction and many other industrial activities. Because these materials may pose risks to people or the environment, they require appropriate identification, storage, transport and treatment.
APT helps connect companies generating hazardous waste streams with authorised processors, recyclers and recovery specialists that can evaluate suitable treatment or recovery routes.
Find suitable processing and recovery options
Hazardous waste covers a wide variety of materials, each with different properties and handling requirements.
Relevant streams may include:
- Contaminated solids
- Hazardous sludges
- Oil-containing waste
- Chemical residues
- Solvent-containing streams
- Paint and coating residues
- Contaminated packaging
- Filter materials
- Process residues
- Metal-containing hazardous fractions
- Other classified industrial waste streams
Accurate information about composition, concentration, physical form and classification is essential when evaluating a hazardous material stream.
Offer hazardous waste streams
Industrial companies can use APT to connect with specialised parties capable of handling, treating or recovering hazardous materials.
Useful information for a listing can include:
- Material composition
- Hazardous properties
- Waste classification or waste code
- Physical state
- Contamination
- Concentration
- Available quantity
- Packaging and storage method
- Safety documentation
- Collection requirements
Providing complete documentation helps qualified processors determine whether they can legally and technically accept the material.
Recovery from hazardous materials
Not every hazardous stream must automatically be treated solely as waste. Depending on its composition and applicable regulations, valuable resources may sometimes be recovered through specialised treatment.
Possible recovery routes can include:
- Solvent recovery
- Oil recovery
- Metal recovery
- Regeneration of chemical products
- Separation and purification
- Recycling of contaminated materials
- Energy recovery
- Specialised industrial treatment
The appropriate route depends on the material’s hazardous properties, technical quality and regulatory requirements.
Safe and compliant material management
Hazardous materials require stricter controls than conventional secondary raw materials. Storage, transport, processing and transfer should therefore only be carried out by appropriately authorised organisations and in accordance with applicable regulations.
APT supports connections between material owners and specialised industry partners, helping companies identify responsible routes for treatment, recovery and circular use while maintaining the necessary safety and compliance requirements.
