Waste Gas Storage Requirement Although the retention of liquid and solid waste streams until they are certified for disposal should not generally be a technical problem, the retention of large-volume gas waste streams is common practice. However, the extreme toxicity of the chemical agents and the proximity of some stockpile sites to highly populated areas prompts consideration of storing waste gas until analyses establish that agent and other toxic materials in air are suitable for discharge.
