The industrial inorganic chemical industry, SIC 2819, was found to be the second largest generating industry with million tons of waste. Table lists the ten industries generating the largest volumes of hazardous waste based on the HWRIC analysis. Large volumes of hazardous wastes are generated by SIC 4953, Refuse Systems, and SIC 7389, Business Services, nee, includes solvent recovery services. The wastes produced by these industry groups are likely to be secondary wastes produced as a result of a treatment or recovery process or from the cleanup of contaminated sites. For the purposes of this analysis, primary hazardous waste generation was assumed to approximate total generation less the volume produced by refuse systems and business services. The oil reHning industry dominates the industrial profile of primary wastes generated in Illinois. â Plating/Polishing DPaints/Allied Products QAII Other Industries Source: Generation and Management of Hazardous Waste in Illinois During 1986, RTI Figure contributing over 80% of the total (see Figure ). Subtracting the two largest oil refineries, for the sake of comparison, industrial inorganic chemicals, steel works and other petroleum refining are shown to be the largest contributors to Illinois hazardous waste generation (see Figure ).
