Can you filter water and remove toxic waste?

If there was actual toxic waste being dumped into the reservoir, there will be extensive cleanup that cannot be done by the untrained. My recommendation would be not to drink the water at all until the water is professionally retested and safe levels in the water are found.


How you can be exposed to toxic waste?

Many different things have been done with toxic waste of various types. Some businesses have discharged their toxic waste in rivers, which flow into the ocean, or have discharged waste into the ocean directly; mercury in particular has been a problem in this regard, and now the fish in the ocean are contaminated with mercury, and if you eat fish, you are going to eat some of this toxic waste, that was eaten (or absorbed) by the fish. Waste discharged into lakes can wind up in the fresh water fish from those lakes. If toxic waste is buried in the ground, it can seep into aquifers and poison people's wells, or wind up contaminating farm crops. If toxic waste emerges as smoke from smokestacks, it contributes to toxic smog which you may wind up breathing. The only safe thing to so with toxic waste is to chemically process it to either recycle the toxic substance (mercury is very useful and can be reused) or to destroy the toxin (some toxins can be destroyed at high temperature).

Where is lead based paint disposed?

You should get a TCLEP done to make sure your not at hazard levels. Most of the time the waste goes to a local landfill. Check your local ordinances regarding toxic waste disposal. Contractor businesses have more stringent rules to follow. Homeowners, unfortunately, can often consider toxic waste as normal household waste and dispose of it for usual garbage collection. However, conscientious people can take their tightly-sealed, heavy-duty plastic bags of lead paint chips and dust and drop cloths, etc to their local dumps for placement in the toxic waste section for special care.


Why does TOXIC Waste happen?

because it can kill us all.More accurately, toxic waste, if not disposed of properly, will get in the ground eventually. Once in the ground, it prevents plants from growing there (possibly ever again), since it's toxic. Then it will reach the groundwater, and poison the water supply.Toxic waste is often not decaying, meaning no creature wants to eat it, so it stays, and never disappears... Until it's disposed properly, like should have been done in the first place!
