Is dental amalgam hazardous waste?

Yes. Amalgam waste from dental care is classed as hazardous waste under the List of Wastes code 18 01 10* because of its mercury content.

It must be kept in a dedicated sealed container, usually white, and collected by a carrier registered to handle hazardous waste, with a consignment note for every collection.
