What is Hazardous Waste Management?

Hazardous Waste Management is ChemicalSafety's EMS software module for managing hazardous, biological, radioactive and mixed waste from the point of generation through pickup, storage, consolidation, treatment, shipment and final disposal. The solution is designed for organizations that need a structured, traceable and efficient way to manage waste containers, documentation and regulatory reporting while supporting day-to-day work in laboratories, production areas and other operating environments.

Our software provides cradle-to-grave visibility across the hazardous waste lifecycle. Waste generators can create electronic pickup requests from the web, tablets or smartphones, while waste handlers receive notifications and can coordinate pickup activities. Barcode scanning supports fast container identification and updates, helping teams keep waste and accumulation-area quantities current. Storage time tracking and automated alerts help responsible personnel identify waste that is approaching a required disposal date.

Key benefits

Hazardous Waste Management centralizes operational waste data and related documentation in one system. This reduces manual effort, improves traceability and supports consistent processes across locations and teams. The module also works together with EMS Chemical Inventory, allowing organizations to connect chemical use, storage, treatment, recycling and disposal processes. Detailed company and regulatory reports can be created from current waste data, supporting more accurate reporting and better preparation for compliance obligations.

Highlights and important features

  • Waste pickup requests: Create electronic requests and notify waste handlers about new pickups.
  • Waste profiles: Store and manage profile information and migrate existing profile data from legacy systems.
  • Accumulation area management: Manage satellite, 90-day and Part B accumulation areas.
  • Storage time tracking: Monitor when waste was generated and when it needs to be disposed of.
  • Drum and container tracking: Track waste drums, consolidation and container movements throughout the process.
  • Lab packing: Manage waste items and lab packs and consolidate compatible materials into appropriate containers.
  • Barcode labeling and mobile scanning: Print waste and drum labels and process containers using iOS and Android mobile apps.
  • Manifests and shipping documentation: Create, manage and print waste manifests, e-Manifests, bills of lading and related documentation.
  • Regulatory reporting: Produce detailed waste reports for internal use and regulatory data exchange, including biennial reporting.
  • Onsite recycling: Support waste treatment and recycling activities performed within the organization.
  • Special waste streams: Record, dispose of and report biohazardous, radioactive and mixed waste.

Support safer, more controlled waste processes

Hazardous Waste Management is suited to both small and large quantity generators as well as teams responsible for handling waste across laboratories, industrial sites, research organizations and other facilities. By combining mobile data capture, barcode tracking, notifications, documentation and reporting, the solution helps users replace fragmented manual processes with a consistent digital workflow.

If your organization wants to improve hazardous waste traceability, simplify pickup and disposal processes, strengthen documentation and support regulatory compliance, Hazardous Waste Management provides a practical platform for managing the full process.
