Despite some progress, the EPA has warned that hazardous waste is still a serious concern in Ireland.
New findings from the Irish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have revealed the amount of hazardous waste produced in Ireland, including ash produced by waste to energy facilities, contaminated soils and chemicals.
The agency said the amount of this waste type continues to increase, with Ireland producing 581,000 tonnes in 2019, up 55,000 tonnes (10pc) on the previous year. Hazardous waste generation in Ireland has been increasing since 2015, driven mainly by increases in incinerator ash and contaminated soils.
