The types of healthcare waste
10、 dealt with in this standard are those that are similar to household and non-residential waste. Due to statutory targets for recycling and legislation covering provision within buildings for disabled persons, reference to these important issues have been incorporated into the appropriate clauses.The
11、 material with which the standard is concerned is now designated “waste” rather than “refuse”. This terminology has been adopted so as to agree with that of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 1.As a result of experience gained, the requirements of convenience, hygiene, amenity, sound insulation a
12、nd safety from fire risk, which are accepted as common practice, are incorporated in the methods described in this code.As a code of practice, this British Standard takes the form of guidance and recommendations. It should not be quoted as if it were a specification and particular care should be tak
13、en to ensure that claims of compliance are not misleading.It is assumed that in the drafting of this British Standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and competent people.This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contr
14、act. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.Attention is drawn to the following statutory regulations: Controlled Waste Regulations 1992 2; Packaging (Essential Requirements) Regulations 2003 3; M
15、anual Handling Regulations 1992 4; Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (England and Wales) Regulations 2000 5; Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 6; Environmental Protection Act 1990 1; Control of Pollution (Amendment) Act 1989 7; Disability Discrimination Act 1995 8.Summa

17、 B/508 and supersedes BSI 30 December 2005BS 5906:20051 ScopeThis British Standard is a code of practice for methods of storage, collection, segregation for recycling and recovery, and on-site treatment of waste from residential and non-residential buildings and healthcare establishments. This Briti
18、sh Standard is applicable to new buildings, refurbishments and conversions of residential and non-residential buildings, including but not limited to retail and offices. It should not be used as the only source of information.The management of healthcare waste from hospitals and waste oil from any e
