Lamps of “Universal Waste Lamps” are defined by the EPA as the bulb or tube portion of an electric lighting device designed to produce ultra-violet, visible, or infra-red light. Fluorescent lamps generate both ultraviolet and visible light. A small amount of mercury vapor present within the sealed glass fluorescent lamp absorbs the ultra-violet light and allows visible light to be emitted.
