Waste producers have a duty of care responsibility to ensure their wastes are treated in an appropriate manner, reducing potential risk to public and/or any other persons potentially encountering it through its lifecycle.Cliniwaste are planning the development and implementation of a unique sophisticated tracking solution, based on asset tracking software, to provide a cradle to grave solution for the tracking of clinical waste from the point of initial production within the NHS or alternative healthcare waste producer to its final disposal within a permitted treatment facility.This tracking will allow full traceability without direct inspection as an alternative to waste auditing involving the manual sorting of bags and sharps, removing hazards associated with the handling and management of potentially infectious wastes along with providing detailed data for future analysis.Data obtained will be used to strategically map the wastes lifecycle and establish where improvements can be made in their management including segregation and disposal relevant to the European Waste Hierarchy.

废物生产者有责任确保其废物以适当的方式处理，减少公众和/或任何其他人在其生命周期中可能遇到的潜在风险。Cliniwaste正在计划开发和实施一个独特的复杂的跟踪解决方案，基于资产跟踪软件，提供一个从摇篮到坟墓的解决方案，以追踪医疗废物，从最初在NHS或其他医疗废物产生者内产生，到最终在许可的处理设施内处置。这种追踪将允许全面无需直接检查的可追溯性，作为涉及手工分拣袋子和利器的废物审计的替代方案，消除与潜在传染性废物的处理和管理相关的危害，沿着提供详细数据供未来分析。所获得的数据将用于战略性地绘制废物生命周期图，并确定在管理方面可以改进的地方，包括与欧洲废物相关的隔离和处置等级制度。
