The toxic waste treatment is an essential component of environmental management in universities, particularly in institutions that conduct laboratory, research, and healthcare activities. Therefore, effective toxic waste management practices, including proper segregation, storage, collection, and disposal, are necessary to minimize risks to human health and the environment. By implementing appropriate treatment and disposal procedures, universities can ensure regulatory compliance, prevent environmental contamination, and support sustainable campus development.
Toxic waste and hazardous materials storage room at Faculty of Science and Technology (SNRU, Thailand)
In our university at faculty of science and technology has toxic waste and hazardous materials storage room. Obviously, the university has established a dedicated hazardous waste and toxic materials storage room to ensure the safe management of chemical waste generated from laboratory teaching, research, and scientific activities. The storage facility is designed as a secure and controlled area for the temporary collection and segregation of hazardous substances prior to treatment or disposal by authorized waste management agencies. Additionally, a proper storage practices, including waste segregation, labeling, containment, and restricted access, are implemented to minimize the risks of chemical spills, environmental contamination, and human exposure.

Picture 1. The university’s wastewater treatment facilities employ three types of aeration equipment, namely, roots blowers, diaphragm air pumps, and submersible aerator pumps. A total of 62 units are currently in operation, consisting of both single-phase and three-phase electrical systems. These aeration units play a vital role in supplying oxygen to wastewater treatment processes and […]
Inorganic waste treatment is an important aspect of sustainable campus management under the UI GreenMetric framework. Then, universities are encouraged to implement effective inorganic waste management practices, including waste segregation, recycling, and reuse, to minimize environmental impacts, reduce landfill disposal, and promote resource efficiency and circular economy principles within the campus community. The university implements […]
