Management of special waste from laboratories

Special wastes are generated in laboratories and must be disposed of in the correct way so that their dispersion does not result in harmful effects on the environment and humans. Liquid laboratory wastes can be nonhazardous-but still require special treatment methods-or they can be hazardous. Mismanagement of the latter can cause irreparable harm to humans and the environment: in fact, these are wastes with biological hazards, such as cell cultures or biological liquids, or with chemical hazards, such as acids, bases, salts, solvents, etc., the dispersion of which into the environment can cause hazards to human and environmental health.

Newster Group, a pioneer in finding sustainable and technological solutions for the management and treatment of medical waste, has designed a neutralization plant for liquid laboratory waste that can completely remove biological and chemical hazards related to liquid laboratory waste.
