摘要：The disposal of biomedical wastes have been studied at various hospitals like, Krishnarajendra Hospital, Mission Hospital, J.S.S. Hospital, Basappa Memorial Hospital, Apollo Hospital and Vikram Hospital for the period of six months by analyzing the procurement lists. Various issues like quantities and proportions of different categories of wastes handling, treatment and disposal methods have been examined. The process of segregation, collection, transport, storage and final disposal methods of infectious and non-infectious wastes have also been observed. One way analysis of variance test has been carried out to determine the possible interrelationship between the wastes originating from different departments of different hospitals. The proper disposal methods have not been employed in K.R. Hospital followed by J.S.S. Hospital and Mission Hospitals when compared to other hospitals. In addition, the differences in the infrastructure were examined and the consequences for waste segregation and disposal methods were also discussed under economic and ecological aspects. For this existing problem, proposed systems of bio-medical waste management are described to improve the disposal practices. A waste management strategy has also been proposed.
