STORAGE/DISPOSAL > Details

Waste coming out of the Laboratory can vary both in quantity and type, including filter papers, paper towels, pipettes, lab bottles with chemicals etc. Given the varying waste, a number of different regulations will apply. Your EHS department should be able to advise you.

One such University that has an excellent website detailing waste streams and best practice on how they should be stored and disposed of is the University of Bath.
