Special waste are made of conditioned chemical waste (acid, mixed hydrocarbons, oils, light bulbs, neons, etc...).
Efficient waste management means ensuring waste flows are directed into the appropriate disposal processes.
Special wastes are subject to a disposal procedure defined by the Swiss ordinance on the movement of waste, the Ordonnance sur les mouvements de déchets (OMoD). For more information on waste movement please consult the relevant website: www.veva-online.ch.
Chemical waste must be stored in a suitable receptacle bearing an official label together with the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). To process waste in complete safety we need everyone's help.
Procedure
Special wastes must be disposed of in their original packaging or in hermetic receptacles. ALL RECEPTACLES MUST BE LABELLED to allow identification of the substance and the principal hazards.
-
A "Transport Request" must be completed.
-
The transport request must include the name of the substance and the UN number. Please also attach the MSDS.

All chemical wastes are to be delivered at building 262.

Send the transport request.
