Technological Hospital Waste Management: Ecobraz at the Forefront

Introduction to the Management of Technological Hospital Waste

The proper management of technological hospital waste is essential for the protection of public health and the environment, as stipulated in CONAMA Environmental Chamber Resolution 358/2005, which regulates the management of health service waste (HSW). This waste, due to its composition and risks, requires specific technical solutions to ensure safe and responsible disposal.

Legal and Regulatory Compliance

According to the National Solid Waste Management Information System (SINIR), established by Law No. 12.305/2010, the management of hospital technological waste must comply with the national solid waste policy, ensuring minimal environmental impact and safety in the handling of materials that may contain biological, chemical and electronic contaminants.

Characteristics of Hospital Technological Waste

Hospital technological waste includes electronic components from medical and administrative equipment which, when disposed of, can pose risks to health and the environment due to the presence of toxic substances and potentially contaminated materials. Correct segregation and storage according to CETESB guidelines are essential to avoid accidents and contamination.

Safe Collection and Disposal Practices

The collection and disposal of this waste must follow strict protocols, using specific techniques to ensure safety and efficiency. Ecobraz stands out in this area, offering specialized solutions for hospital e-waste collection, minimizing environmental risks and complying with current regulations.
