Laboratory Consumables Contaminated with Residual Chemicals

  • Laboratory consumable waste (e.g. plastic pipette tips / pipettes / tubes), contaminated with residual chemicals only, can be disposed of via the ‘tiger' bag disposal route as ‘non-hazardous identifiable laboratory waste’
  • Laboratory materials (e.g. sample collection tubes) contaminated with hazardous concentrations of chemicals should be disposed of in yellow incineration bins
