What do you need to know about laboratory waste?
Laboratory waste is any chemical or hazardous waste generated in laboratories. It may be generated by medical or research professionals including research and pathology facilities, schools and universities.
Materials include chemicals such as acids, alkalis, pharmaceuticals, poisons and toxins, but also includes bio-waste samples including human or animal tissues, body fluids, bloods and samples.
All these are materials that pose significant health, safety or environmental risks when disposed of improperly and so require specific reporting and transport requirements for compliant disposal.
Laboratory waste streams typically can’t be sent straight to conventional landfill; these include substances defined under the Australian Code for the Transport of Dangerous Goods. These waste streams must be pre-treated to a level that satisfies the Waste Classification Guidelines.
Each material must be assessed in order to be collected, processed and disposed of properly, in accordance with relevant regulations.

What happens to your waste?
Most laboratory waste cannot be easily recycled.
Laboratory wastes are taken to a state-of-the-art waste treatment facility where they are securely incinerated at high temperatures to remove any toxins or contaminants and then safely disposed of at a suitably licensed landfill.
