Used (and Unused) Vapes = RCRA Violations
The Problem: Why Vapes Are Hazardous Waste
Under the EPA's Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), disposable vapes qualify as hazardous waste due to:
Acute toxicity from nicotine residue (classified as P075).
Leachable heavy metals from lithium-ion batteries (lead, mercury).
Even unused vapes with nicotine e-liquid fall under these rules for non-household generators like businesses. Tossing them in regular trash? That's a fast track to EPA scrutiny, especially in Arizona's strict waste management landscape.
Every second, 5.7 vapes are trashed nationwide—billions annually contributing to 9 billion tons of vape waste.
Business liability: Fines up to $70K per day per violation, plus cleanup costs and reputational damage.
Worker risks: Service teams exposed to toxins during sorting, endangering health and safety.
