Laboratories tend to use a wide variety of chemical reagents, but use each in relatively small quantities. This usage can be quite different from industry, where fewer chemicals are used but in larger quantities. Therefore, laboratories need pollution prevention and waste minimization advice and support that is tailored to their unique environment.

Pollution prevention efforts can provide substantial benefits to laboratories:

• Financial savings related to waste disposal costs
• Improved health and safety conditions in the workplace
• Reduced regulatory requirements and liability

This program prevents practical and realistic advice for reducing the volume and toxicity of hazardous waste generated by laboratories based on EPA guidelines. With a focus on easily-implemented, low-cost pollution prevention techniques, your pollution prevention efforts will be efficient and fruitful. You will find many beneficial ideas from sections such as:

• "Top Ten" Pollution Prevention Techniques
• Step-by-Step Process to Prevent Pollution
• Brainstorming: Which of the following could be implemented in your laboratory?

From product substitutions to procedural changes and improvements in inventory and purchasing, you will find numerous opportunities to minimize waste and prevent pollution in your laboratory.
