[0002] Hazardous waste refers to waste generated during production, daily life, and other activities that possess hazardous characteristics such as toxicity, corrosivity, explosiveness, flammability, or infectiousness. Infectious hazardous waste, primarily originating from medical institutions, laboratories, research facilities, and veterinary clinics, contains pathogens and can transmit diseases. Therefore, the handling and management of infectious hazardous waste requires special attention and strict control to prevent harm to public health and the environment.

[0003] The sorting and classification of infectious hazardous waste is a crucial part of hazardous waste management. Accurate identification and classification of infectious waste is the foundation for ensuring the correct selection of subsequent treatment and disposal methods; it avoids confusion between infectious waste and ordinary waste, preventing unnecessary pollution and transmission risks; and proper classification helps staff identify potential hazards and take appropriate protective measures to safeguard their health and safety.
