Only a Hazardous Landfill can accept [[Hazardous Waste]] for [[Landfill]] [[Disposal]] but only then if it meets the relevant standards for engineering and management controls and [[Waste Acceptance Criteria]] set out in the Annex to the Decision, but it may also be able to accept small quantities of [[ Inert Waste]]. Hazardous landfill sites cannot accept [[Non-Hazardous Waste]]. There are some restricted circumstances in which [[Non-hazardous Landfill]] can accept [[Hazardous Waste]], these are described further below. | Only a '''Hazardous Landfill''' can accept [[Hazardous Waste]] for [[Landfill]] [[Disposal]] but only then if it meets the relevant standards for engineering and management controls and [[Waste Acceptance Criteria]] set out in the Annex to the Decision, but it may also be able to accept small quantities of [[ Inert Waste]].

There are numerical limit values for leachable inorganic substances, organic content along with standards for physical stability. These exist for both granular and monolithic hazardous waste. | There are numerical limit values for leachable inorganic substances, organic content along with standards for physical stability.

Standards require [[Hazardous Waste]] that is disposed of with other [[Non-Hazardous Waste]] to be in separate engineered cells within the Landfill where stable non-reactive [[Hazardous Waste]] or [[Gypsum Waste]] (normally plasterboard) is to be disposed of<ref>Defra, 2010.
