Why is it masculine?
Rifiuti is masculine because it derives from the Latin "reiectus" (past participle of "reicere," meaning "to throw back" or "to reject"). In Italian, the Latin masculine -us ending regularly became -o, and nouns with this ending are masculine. The word "rifiuto" (waste, rejection) inherited its masculine gender from this Latin masculine form.
