You are absolutely correct. Unfortunately I don't work in the waste handling / processing industry so don't know what exactly is being undertaken and what technology is being developed. I do know that reducing the volume of waste that is landfilled or deep buried is one way of handling "toxic" wastes more efficiently. If you can turn 100m3 into 1m3 it obviously greatly reduces that rate at which the burial options are used up. Society in general produces an incredible amount of waste and "we" all (to some degree) expect someone else to deal with it. There will always be a need to handle "toxic" wastes and at the moment there appears to be no way of eradicting these types of practices. I hope this information is of interest.

You said that the plant matter is incinerated using sophisticated filters to capture the contaminants. But the environmental problem still persists. How to dispose off the contaminated filters and the ash. Promila Chaturvedi Membership N0. 397326 _____ From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: soil FW: Feedback - RHS Information Ref: 397326/243616 Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2013 12:31:16 +0000 Ref: 397326/243616 Dear Ms Chaturvedi, Thank you for your enquiry to the Royal Horticultural Society's Members’ Advisory Service. Hyperaccumulators (plants that take up considerable amounts of nutrients and contaminants) are commonly used to clean up contaminated land. This plant matter is often then incinerated utilising sophisticated filters to capture the contaminants. I hope this information is interesting.
