Waste Creation

Cradle to grave hazardous waste management. Hazardous waste tracking software to track waste from creation to disposal. Use the Mobile App or Web Portal to create waste within a satellite accumulation area. Reporting is streamlined as the default waste codes for a zone is prioritized. Users record the waste profile, the storage type and quantity of waste. Tracking labels are printed with barcode or QR Code information. Tracking of waste by Sample/Order/Batch Number and Project Reference is also provided.

Waste Inventory

The HazMat T&T can manage waste at multiple sites within an organization. A site can be a disposal facility, transfer station or a waste generation facility. Within each site there can be departments and zones. Zones are a physical areas where waste can be located. Zones can be satellite accumulation areas or a central accumulation area. A waste zone can be a space for a single storage unit or multiple storage units or a large space such as a yard or loading dock. Low level waste tracking is provided to manage many waste items within each Storage unit. Management of hazardous waste storage units allows for many units to be combined together. The contents of a storage unit is known and tracked also.

Tracking Items

Tracked Items are waste created within a department and stored in an satellite accumulation area. Each item is given a tracking number and is stored within a storage unit. Examples of Tracked Items include, a waste chemical inventory item or mixture, a bag of oily rags.

Waste Containers

Waste Containers are stored within Zones. Storage units can be sent for disposal with the Hazardous Waste to a disposal facility. Storage Units can also be reusable. Reusable hazardous waste storage units should have a permanent number assigned. Typically these would be a metal tag / metal label with a QR code or barcode.

Waste Movements

Waste movements can be recorded on the Web and Mobile App. Using the Mobile App the user scans the QR Code on the Container and specifies the Zone. Zones can be satellite accumulation areas, generation or central accumulation areas. Multiple Containers can be moved at once. A batch of Waste Containers can be moved in a single transaction. As can all waste in a zone. All Waste Movements are recorded within the audit trail.

Weighing Waste

The waste container is placed on a scales and the Mobile App will retrieve the weight. The Mobile App updates the waste inventory with the container weight. Tare weights are managed to ensure the accuracy of the weights.

Waste Profiles

The Waste Master holds the definition of each Waste Profile to be managed within the system. Waste Profiles describe the waste stream and its properties. This information is used to manage compatibility, disposal recovery methods and more. Waste Profiles for a waste stream include Waste Description, Proper Shipping Name, DOT Transport information, UN Number(s), Hazard Classes, EWC Codes. The hazardous waste stream type can be specified, for example, Flammable liquids, Oils, Solvents, Acids, etc.

Waste Tracking Labels

Hazardous Waste Container labels can also include information such as Waste Stream Description, Hazard Class, Compliance Date, Weight etc.

Waste Compliance Dates

A waste compliance zone has a number of days associated with the zone. Compliance dates are used to ensure regulatory compliance. Email alerts send users a list of containers that are stored in a compliance zones more than a specified number of days. For example, if the waste compliance zone is set for 90 days, alerts could be sent for any containers that have been there for 80 or more days. Once a container is moved into a compliance zone a timer starts that tracks how long the container remains in the compliance zone. Any zone can be designated as a compliance zone.

Waste Treatment Routes

Treatment Routes are used to determine the Zones where waste can be stored, and what Treatment Zone can be used when treating waste at a disposal facility. Treatment Routes are generally used as a method of segregating waste, ensuring incompatible waste is not stored together.

Waste can be associated with a treatment route prior to arrival on-site. This can be done using Work Orders, or can be set when receiving waste. Alternatively a treatment route can be set using Work with Waste Inventory.

Combining Waste

Combining Hazardous Waste Streams is not allowed by default. To combine hazardous waste streams these wastes must be defined as compatible. After combination. each hazardous waste container combined is known and tracked. There is no limit to the number of combinations that can be performed and tracked. This low level hazardous waste tracking provides the controls needed for compliance. This management and tracking is required when dealing with large volumes of hazardous waste.

Central Accumulation Areas

Know when waste enters a central accumulation area and when it must leave. Move Waste into a Central Accumulation Area using the Mobile App. Define Alerts based on time that waste is within a specified area. 90 day alerts are emailed to managers. Any number of alerts can be created.

Hazardous Waste Stock Check

A hazardous waste stock check is performed via the Stock Check function on the Mobile App. Stock checks are performed at the Hazardous Waste Zone level. The purpose of a stock check is to reconcile the location of waste containers. Waste Containers that are missing are marked as found during the stock check. The hazardous waste stock check results are applied to the waste inventory via the Web Portal..

Specify the desired Batch or Zone, containers are retrieved and displayed. Waste Containers are grouped by their Waste Profile for disposal.

Waste Delivery and Collection

Hazardous waste can be moved between facilities in two methods: Shipments or Deliveries and Collections. The waste Shipment function is used for point to point waste loads. That is sending a full load to a 3rd party for disposal. Point to Point waste loads can also be sent to another site within your business unit. The Deliveries and Collections function is used when doing Milk Runs. Milk Runs involve the dropping of waste containers and the picking up of waste containers at various stops along a route.

Work Orders

Work Orders are used within HazMat T&T to specify what waste streams are expected to be received at a disposal facility or transfer station. The Work Orders specify the waste streams, the container types and the quantities of waste to be received. The Work Orders are normally the link between HazMat and the ERP or operations system.

Audit Logging

On each transaction or activity there are a number of audits created. Transactions include waste movements, creation, combining, splitting and shipping. For all transactions the user, time and date, and zone are recorded. All waste handler activities are recorded in the waste transaction audit log.
