Potentially eligible
Suitable infectious fraction
Waste within the validated acceptance matrix and operating conditions.
Waste management for laboratories
Laboratory waste requires its own acceptance and control route
Microbiological cultures, culture media, blood tubes, samples, needles and other sharps, and contaminated consumables arise from specific processes. SimpleComply assesses the actual waste, classification, local procedures and applicable conditions before recommending Sterilwave.
Different source, different controls
The difference is in both waste profile and operating method
AspectHospitalLaboratory
OriginOperating theatres, emergency departments, wards and other patient-care areasDiagnostics, microbiology, biotechnology and research
Typical fractionNeedles and other sharps, blood-containing waste and other infectious materialMicrobiological cultures, culture media, blood tubes, samples and contaminated laboratory materials
OrganisationMany collection points and internal routesProcess-linked points and controlled work zones
Additional focusAnatomical, pharmaceutical and cytotoxic wasteBiological agents, GMO, chemicals and special biological streams
Acceptance before treatment
Suitability is determined per waste stream
SimpleComply assesses for each site which waste streams are suitable and which validation and regulatory requirements apply.
Separate route
Not the same process route
Anatomical, cytotoxic, chemical and radioactive waste require other treatment routes.
Specific assessment
Special biological streams
GMO-related, Category A and other exceptional biological waste require separate assessment.
Toepassingsvoorbehoud: Final acceptance always depends on the waste stream, location and country.
