it depends on the different types of waste
a mixture would probably be close to the flash point of the lowest "ingredient"

What is the flashpoint of ignitable wastes?
Depends on what exactly is in the waste.
What are flammable materials.?
what is a flashpoint <><><> The temperature at which a substance gives off an ignitable vapor is the flash point. If the flash point is under 100 degrees F, it is a flammable (gasoline). If it is over 100, it is a combustible (diesel fuel). Flash point is NOT the ignition temperature.
The minimum temperature at which a material gives off enough vapor to form an ignitable mixture with air is called the materials?
Flash Point
Why is flash point less in cold countries?
I'm not sure how you arrived at this conclusion, but it's incorrect. The flash point is defined as " the lowest temperature at which it can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air" - this temperature remains the same regardless of location.
Poisonous ignitable or cancer causing waste is called?
Poisonous, ignitable, or cancer causing waste is called hazardous waste. Other properties of hazardous wastes are that they may be corrosive or reactive.
What is the ignition point of petrol?
It has a flash point of about -50° F (-65° C)(lowest temp ignitable). The ignition temperature is about 495° or autoignition which it can go off without external spark source.
What does the flash point of gas mean?
When gas flashes it should be arrested for indecent exposure. This happened to me once. It was a nasty point of my life. The above answer is silly! The flash point of a volatile liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air. Measuring a liquid's flash point requires an ignition source. At the flash point, the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed. The flash point is not to be confused with the autoignition temperature, which does not require an ignition source.
Flash point for acetylene?
At room temperature carbon monoxide is a gas. It boils at around minus 191 deg C. By definition flash point is the lowest temperature a liquid material can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air. So probably the answer is the boiling point.
What does it mean if the flash point of a liquid is more?
Flash Point is a carefully defined feature. It is the temperature at which the vapour of a volatile liquid will ignite to form an ignitable mixture in the presence of an ignition source. When the ignition source is removed, the combustion may well cease. And of course, when the word MORE is used, there must be a second material/property with which it is to be compared.
Will peanut oil burn?
The flash point is the temperature at which a liquid gives off an ignitable vapor. It is NOT the smoke point, nor the ignition point. Unrefined peanut oil has a smoke point (temperature at which it begins to break down, give off smoke) of 320 degrees Fahrenheit, while refined peanut oil has a smoke point of 448 degrees Fahrenheit. The ignition point of both oils is 700 degrees Fahrenheit, and the flash point 600 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is significance of flash point?
The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air. At this temperature the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed. A slightly higher temperature, the fire point, is defined as the temperature at which the vapor continues to burn after being ignited. Neither of these parameters is related to the temperatures of the ignition source or of the burning liquid, which are much higher. The flash point is often used as one descriptive characteristic of liquid fuel, but it is also used to describe liquids that are not used intentionally as fuels
