What is Open Pit Burning: Health and Safety Risks about?

Burning waste in open pits can release harmful pollutants like dioxins, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide if not done properly. A Bioenvironmental Engineer can monitor for these pollutants and potential health impacts. Control methods include siting burn pits away from people, separating wastes, and using high-temperature incinerators. Recycling programs are encouraged as an alternative to burning whenever possible due to health and environmental risks.
