The purpose of this study is to understand the current situation for waste generation from domestic industries and to calculate the designated waste generation containing heavy metals using Korean waste statistics. Analytical data regarding heavy metals for hazardous waste in a previous study was reviewed. In addition, the designated waste generation for each heavy metal was estimated by comparing the data of the Allbaro system (2014). The designated waste generations were, in order, Pb > CN−> Cd > Cu > Hg > Cr6+ > As, and the sludge, ash, slag, dust, etc. generated from the process of wastewater treatment, plating and anodizing of metals, waste treatment, and the manufacture of basic iron and steel, considered as designated waste containing heavy metals, were investigated. The waste generation with heavy metals was 1.812 % of the total waste generation, which is higher than the 1.317 % collected from the Allbaro system (2014). These results will be used as a baseline in establishing waste management policy. Further analytical data about heavy metals in the designated wastes that are mentioned in this study are required for a more accurate picture of waste generation containing heavy metals.
