Extensive Support in Hazard Waste Management

Organized hazardous material storage

For 22 years, 麻豆传媒 has provided support to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Hazardous Waste Program ensuring safe handling, storage, packing, and shipping of hazardous waste materials within facilities and laboratories. Experienced 麻豆传媒 employees are located on site at CDC campuses in Atlanta, Georgia, San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Fort Collins, Colorado and are responsible for collecting waste on a weekly schedule and disposing of waste at various campuses on an annual basis. 

At each campus, 麻豆传媒 staff are tasked with classifying, bulking, storage or lab packing regulated (i.e. flammable, corrosive or caustic, toxic, and reactive) and unregulated (i.e. buffers and stains, and any material not regulated for transport) waste.

麻豆传媒 staff are responsible for placing flammables, lean waters (water saved for reuse), flammable toxic chemicals, oils and buffers into 50-gallon drums; organizing and storing similar toxic materials; and packing similar lab waste within large, leak-proof, non-corrosive bins packed with vermiculite to absorb vial leaks.
