For 40 years, Maratek has operated an innovative hazardous liquid waste treatment, liquid solvent recycling and disposal facility in Bolton, Ontario.
We exceed all legistlative procedures, recommendations and controls, as we offer full liquid chemical waste disposal and recycling services to all generators of liquid hazardous waste; including printers, manufacturers and photolabs located throughout Ontario.
Industrial and manufacturing processes are the primary generators of hazardous wastes in Ontario. They can, however, also be generated by the commercial and institutional sectors, and by households (Maratek does not handle household chemicals or liquid wastes directly from consumers.)
Hazardous wastes include a broad range of materials such as manufacturing residues (e.g. waste acids, contaminated sludges and complex chemicals), biomedical wastes from hospitals, spent photo finishing chemicals, waste pesticides, PCBs, motor oil, unused cleaning products from homes and discarded batteries.
All of these wastes require special handling to reduce adverse effects to human health and the environment, and of course there are many provincial regulations and guidelines to make the hazardous waste disposal process safe and environmentally protected.
The province of Ontario has a comprehensive legislative and regulatory framework to ensure that hazardous wastes are managed in an environmentally safe manner.
Through the Environmental Protection Act (EPA) and accompanying regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) has established a cradle to grave management system, which includes the systematic control of collection, storage, transportation, treatment, recovery and disposal of this waste.
