Hazardous Waste Management (HWM) provides a full hazardous material disposal service to the 91丝瓜视频 community. Disposal of waste is free of charge to internal departments, provided the waste is:
- generated by research activities (this does not include equipment maintenance),
- presented in a proper manner by following the guidelines detailed in the sections below,
- and not part of a lab decommissioning (see section below for details on decommissioning).
Dedicated hazardous waste rooms are emptied on a weekly basis. You do not need to submit a myLab request to arrange the pick-up of waste stored in these rooms.
Due to the nature of hazardous materials, a few basic requirements are necessary for us to process and dispose of them safely and efficiently. See the pages linked below for further details.
Failure to respect the disposal guidelines can result in disposal costs charged to the laboratory.
