BMW Rules 2016 on Waste Segregation: Color-Coding and Specific Treatment
- The BMW Rules 2016 provide guidelines on how to segregate different types of waste according to a new color-coding structure.
- The new structure uses four colors: Yellow, Red, Blue, and White.
- Yellow-coded waste includes human or animal tissues, organs, body parts, fetuses, and waste from experiments or testing.
- Yellow-coded waste also includes materials soaked with blood or body fluid, such as cotton and swabs.
- Pharmaceutical waste, such as antibiotics, drugs, capsules, and syrup contents without plastic or glass bottles, is also considered yellow-coded waste.
- Discarded bedding and linen contaminated with blood or body fluid are categorized as yellow-coded waste.
- Voluminous materials should be cut to fit the size of the packaging material for yellow-coded waste.
- Yellow-coded waste also includes discarded blood bags or blood bags with residual blood.
- Blood sample tubes containing blood are considered yellow-coded waste.
- Yellow-coded waste also includes pharmaceuticals and materials contaminated with cytotoxic drugs, such as glass or plastic containers, ampoules, and vials.
- Chemical liquid waste, such as discarded formalin, is categorized as yellow-coded waste.
- The new color-coding structure simplifies waste segregation and provides specific guidelines for the treatment of different waste categories.
