Highly toxic or pose a real danger to human and animal life forms . There is radioactive waste/ chemical /acid and biological hazards such as an autopsy table where contaminated blood or other bodily fluids can enter a drainage system
there is hazardous wastes and toxic chemicals in the ocean
Bacteria.

Chemically sludge is obtained when precipitating soluble or insoluble chemicals present in the water or any kind of effluent coming out of chemical industries. Generally iron was used as an precipitate pollutants present in waste water. the final product after precipitation is called chemical sludge which is filled in a land into heap or used in road construction. Biological sludge is formed when microorganisms are used to degrade toxic chemicals present in waste water. The excess biomass formed is termed as biological sludge which contains adsorbed toxic chemicals in their cells, toxic metabolites formed during degradation of wastes, dead biomass etc.
Two chemical wastes produced by burning fossil fuels are carbon dioxide (CO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). These pollutants can contribute to global warming and acid rain, respectively, when released into the atmosphere.
The Chemical substance which is found in circuits of electronic, which is very harmfull and toxic is Non-Biodegradable E-Wastes.

1.)Human wastes such as feces and urine 2.)Industrial wastes such as oil. 3.)Chemical runoff such as fertilizer. 4.)Detergents
Biological treatment plants make hazardous wastes safe by utilizing microorganisms to break down harmful substances into less toxic or non-toxic forms. This process, known as bioremediation, harnesses natural biological processes to degrade pollutants in soil and water. By optimizing conditions for microbial activity, these treatment plants can effectively reduce the environmental impact of hazardous wastes, making them safer for disposal or reuse. Ultimately, this approach contributes to environmental sustainability and public health protection.
