Keeping Plastic Lab Waste Out of Landfills and Incinerators
Until recently, a lack of specialized services meant there was no definitive method for safely and effectively decontaminating plastic waste for reuse in new consumables. As a result, this waste was incinerated or diverted to landfill. The start-up company LabCycle has tackled this issue head-on, with its innovative approach to laboratory waste management. Technology Networks recently had the pleasure of speaking with LabCycle’s co-founder and chief technology officer Dr. Helen Liang, to learn more about its circular economy for laboratory plastic waste.
