BD Disposal Solutions offers collectors to meet
the disposal needs of the four categories of
waste generated in medical settings. There
are two main categories of waste: regulated
medical waste and hazardous waste. Regulated
medical waste includes Sharps / Infectious
Waste, Pharmaceutical (non-hazardous) and
Chemotherapy waste.
The hazardous waste category is for the
collection of RCRA (U.S. EPA Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act) waste.
This table indicates general guidelines
for proper waste stream segregation.
