The Subtleties of Managing Laboratory Waste in 2024
Chemical waste is generated by nearly every academic and industrial research laboratory. The regulations provide specific requirements for how waste should be handled. This presents challenges to laboratory facilities because of the wide range of small waste streams generated when working with laboratory quantities of chemicals. This paper will describe the requirements and suggest how to provide environmentally sound and economically sensible disposal practices.
