Answers
Answer:
SOLID: Place in a properly labeled, leak proof container; disinfect by thermal or chemical treatment; place in a TAMIU dumpster for disposal in the Landfill. 2. LIQUID waste should be disinfected by thermal or chemical treatment then discharged into the Sewer System.
Answer:
The treated waste - if sufficiently sterile - can generally be disposed with waste in a sanitary landfill, or in some cases discharged into the sewer system. In the past, treatment of medical waste was primarily performed on-site at hospitals in dedicated medical waste facilities. Over time, the expense and regulation of these facilities have prompted organizations to hire contractors to collect, treat, and dispose of medical waste, and the percentage of medical organizations that perform their own treatment and disposal has dropped.
