Reviews

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a starting point in waste minimization in laboratories. --Chemical Health & Safety Pollution Prevention and Waste Minimization in Laboratories is the only book devoted to this subject...it is the current bible. --Laboratory Safety & Environmental Management A thorough guide for laboratory directors interested in incorporating pollution prevention practices in laboratory waste management procedures. --Profile and Management Options for EPA Laboratory Generated Mixed Waste, USEPA 1996 I found this book to be one of the most informative and practical that I have read on the subject of waste minimization... This book will make an excellent resource for those practicing in the area of laboratory waste management or general laboratory safety and health. -AIHA Journal
