Answer: B.) Find a way to incinerate waste without allowing lead to escape.

Explanation:

Incineration is a process of waste treatment. In this process the combustion of materials takes place at high temperature. This process converts the waste into ash, heat and flue ash. The ash is usually in the form of inorganic constituents. The flue gas may contain particulate pollutants. The heat produce can be use for generation of electricity.

Lead can be generated in the process of incineration as an inorganic product. The lead is a toxic pollutant which can cause deadly respiratory problems. Therefore, the escape of the lead as an incinerate waste should be prevented.
