Conscious Hospital Recycling: Partnership with Ecobraz

Contextualization of Hospital Recycling

The proper management of waste generated in hospital units is fundamental to minimizing environmental impacts and ensuring the safety of the professionals involved and the community. Anvisa Resolution RDC No. 222/2018 regulates the management of healthcare waste, requiring strict practices for collection, segregation and final disposal.

Challenges and Applicable Regulations

Hospital waste includes potentially biological, chemical and recyclable materials, and it is essential to segregate them in accordance with the provisions of the National Solid Waste Policy (Law No. 12.305/2010). Non-compliance can result in occupational risks and environmental contamination.
