Hydrofluoric acid (HF), a typical inorganic acid, has been used in the industry for its various usageand classified as the toxic compound, because it can cause the pneumonia and pulmonary edema when it wasexposed to respiratory organs. The official environmental analytical method for fluorine and its compound inwaste has not been developed. For this reason, we have faced some problem to treat the contaminated wastesby the HF leakage from industrial process. In this study, prepared for analytical method for combustible waste(crop, trees, etc.) generated from HF leaking accident and to be applied as the official analytical method forfluorine contaminated waste when the fluorine and its compound will be regulated as a hazardous materialby the waste management law later.
