Isopropanol Waste Disposal Case Study
Lab Chemical Waste Collection Case Study
We recently had an inquiry from a business looking to dispose of 5lt containers containing isopropanol. The lab uses 3D printers and isopropanol 99.9% to wash and clean their models, meaning they generate waste isopropanol which requires disposing of professionally. Due to the hazardous nature of chemical waste, the drums must be collected and removed safely.
How We Helped
Our team provided a collection from their site to remove 10 5ltr containers of isopropanol waste. We ensured the materials were transported to licensed treatment facilities where they are disposed of securely.
Through our professional services, the business had peace of mind that they were following the UK’s guidelines and requirements relating to hazardous waste. These are strict requirements laid out due to hazardous waste posing a threat to human health and the environment.
The Environmental and Compliance Benefits
Proper disposal of hazardous chemicals like isopropanol brings significant environmental and compliance benefits. By partnering with us, the business not only met legal obligations under UK hazardous waste regulations but also actively contributed to reducing environmental harm.
Isopropanol, when improperly disposed of, can pose severe risks to ecosystems and water sources due to its high volatility and flammability. Our disposal process ensures that all isopropanol waste is handled with care, transported securely, and treated at licensed facilities, reducing potential environmental impact.
In addition, the customer received full documentation, including a hazardous waste consignment note. This document served as a transparent record of the waste’s journey from collection to disposal, providing a reliable audit trail that not only meets regulatory requirements but also enhances the business’s commitment to environmental stewardship.
