Medical waste bins play a crucial role in the safe handling and disposal of hazardous materials generated from healthcare, medical treatment, and related activities. These specialized containers are designed to hold waste that is infectious, toxic, or otherwise harmful to human health and the environment. Proper classification and management of medical waste are essential to prevent contamination, reduce the spread of diseases, and ensure environmental protection. The Medical Waste Classification Catalog categorizes medical waste into five main types: 1. **Infectious Waste** – This includes any material that can transmit infectious agents, such as blood, body fluids, or excreta from patients, as well as waste generated by individuals with infectious diseases. Examples include used bandages, swabs, and other contaminated items. 2. **Pathological Waste** – This category consists of human tissues, organs, and animal carcasses resulting from medical procedures, surgeries, or laboratory testing. It also includes specimens removed during pathological examinations, such as tissue samples and wax blocks. 3. **Sharps Waste** – These are items that can puncture or cut the skin, such as needles, scalpels, glass slides, and test tubes. Sharps must be disposed of in specially labeled, puncture-resistant containers to prevent injuries and the spread of infection. 4. **Pharmaceutical Waste** – This refers to expired, damaged, or contaminated medications, including both non-hazardous and hazardous drugs like cytotoxic agents and genotoxic substances. Proper disposal prevents environmental contamination and misuse. 5. **Chemical Waste** – This includes hazardous chemicals such as solvents, disinfectants, mercury-containing devices (like thermometers and sphygmomanometers), and other toxic or flammable substances. These should never be poured down drains or mixed with regular trash. For safe disposal, high-risk medical waste—such as culture media, pathogens, and biological specimens—must first be sterilized using autoclaving or chemical disinfection before being compacted and transported for final disposal. Infectious waste is typically collected in red-labeled bags and treated according to strict protocols.
