In the context of healthcare waste, which includes pharmaceutical and chemical byproducts, a vast array of hazardous and non-hazardous materials are continuously generated. The World Health Organization describes healthcare waste as a “potential reservoir of harmful organisms” capable of triggering global public health crises.

Each year, around 16 billion injections are administered worldwide, but not all needles and syringes are disposed of correctly. Hazardous waste, which includes toxic, flammable, corrosive, or reactive materials, poses significant risks to human health and the environment. Effective disposal and management are crucial to prevent contamination and minimize risks. Notably, one third of waste management applications in the production industry are produced in chemical and pharmaceutical fields alone.
