Hazardous wastes are becoming potential threats for environment. In the other hand, construction is an industry that develops along with time. Therefore, suitable alternative mechanisms to use hazardous wastes in construction industry would extensively mitigate the environmental pollution through globe. I have referred the paper Article Wastes from the petroleum industries as sustainable resource...
and got some ideas on using petroleum wastes as sustainable construction resources. However I have observed that the research study of (Asim et al, 2021) constraints under limited scope. I would like to know how the following hazardous materials could be effectively used as construction resource materials:1. Pesticides
2. Batteries
3. Electronic wastes
4. Florescent tubes
5. Thermometers
6. Plastic shopping bags
I would like to get informed regarding my question mentioned above.

Energy from waste is a suitable option for the valorization of many kinds of waste like agro-residue, biomass, plastic waste. Various valuable chemicals can be extracted from biomass, rice husk, tires, and plastic waste. construction of roads and bricks is also a suitable option for this kind of waste. However, for pesticides, not much work is available in the literature. This article can be useful in this regards

These kind of hazardous wastes can be used in the preparation of following components used in Civil Engineering constructions:
1. Fire sealants (organic hazardous wastes) - Used during finishing phase of building construction
2. Tack coat CRS-1 preparation (petrol) - Intermediate protective membrane between prime coat and asphalt
3. Asphalt (petrol waste) - Wearing course of pavements
