Popis: The chemical residues management plan at Instituto Butantan employs a combination of criteria that must be considered when working with such residues: inter and intra class incompatibility, chemical reactivity and other characteristics that may alter the risk classification of certain substances, such as hydration and concentration. The program also develops educational activities and proposes measures for minimization of residue generation. A chemist is in charge of all technical aspects regarding residues management. The Environment Management in collaboration with the Safety Engineering Department collected and sent to incineration chemical residues in accordance with the current legislation. This plan minimizes operational risks and shall be implemented not only for the final destination of chemical residues, but also for the storage of chemical products in laboratory and in the industry, contributing to operational safety in addition to social welfare.
