The paper presents an analysis of the management of hazardous chemical waste from medicolegal. activities. The analysis is based on eight years survey of the hazardous chemical waste management, ponting out the current procedures. The time series analysis is used to predict the evolution of such medical waste, and according to the forecast some strategic objective for reducing the amount of chemical waste are proposed.

Objetivo: avaliar as especificações da planta física dos abrigos de resíduos químicos perigosos gerados em hospital. Metodologia: pesquisa descritiva, realizada no Hospital Universitário da Universidade de São Paulo. Os dados foram coletados por meio da Ficha de Informação de Gerenciamento de Resíduo Químico Perigoso. Resultados: os dados evidenciaram 11 especificações, sendo sete (63,63%) não conformidades no armazenamento interno e seis (54,54%) conformidades no armazenamento externo. Os resultados apontaram os aspectos a serem revistos pelo hospital quanto à adequação da planta física dos abrigos de resíduos químicos perigosos no aguardo da coleta externa. Indicaram, ainda, diretrizes quanto às normas para construção dos abrigos, subsidiando o Plano de Gerenciamento de Resíduos Químicos Perigosos. Conclusão: o Plano tornou possível a prevenção de acidentes e doenças relacionados ao trabalho e a promoção da saúde humana e ambiental, como fatores de sustentabilidade no setor saúde hospitalar.Descritores: Hospitais de Ensino, Resíduos Químicos, Saúde Ocupacional, Saúde Pública, Saúde Ambiental.PHYSICAL PLANT OF HAZARDOUS SHELTERS WITH CHEMICAL WASTE FROM HOSPITAL CAREObjective: to evaluate the specifications of the physical plant for residues of dangerous hazardous chemical waste shelters generated at a hospital. Methodology: This is a descriptive research that takes place at University Hospital of the University of Sao Paulo. Data collection was carried out through the Chemical Waste Management Data Sheet Dangerous. Results: The data showed 11 specifications, 7 (63.63%) non-conformities in the internal storage and 6 (54.54%) conformities in external storage. The results pointed out the aspects to be reviewed by the Hospital, with respect to the adequacy of the physical plant of hazardous chemical waste shelters, awaiting external collection. They also offered guidelines for the standards of construction of shelters, supporting the Waste Management Plan of hazardous chemicals. Conclusion: With this Plan it was possible to prevent accidents and diseases related to work and the promotion of human and environmental health and sustainability factors within the hospital sector.Descriptors: Teaching Hospitals, Chemical Waste, Occupational Health, Public Health, Environmental Health.PLANTA FÍSICA DE LOS CENTROS DE ACOGIDA DE RESIDUOS QUÍMICOS PELIGROSOS DE LA ATENCIÓN HOSPITALARIAObjetivo: evaluar las especificaciones de la planta física de los lugares de almacenamiento de residuos químicos peligrosos generados en hospital. Metodología: Investigación descriptiva realizada en el Hospital Universitario de la Universidad de São Paulo. La recolección de datos se realizó mediante Hoja de Información de Gestión de Residuos Químicos Peligrosos. Resultados: Los datos mostraron que 11 especificaciones, 7 (63.63%) del almacenamiento interno no estaba en conformidad y 6 (54,54%) cumplian los requisitos de almacenamiento externo. Los resultados también mostraron los aspectos que deben ser revisados por el Hospital, como la adecuación de la planta física, los lugares de almacenamiento de residuos químicos peligrosos, en espera del transporte externo. También fueron ofrecidas directrices como normas para la construcción de depósitos, apoyo al Plan de Gestión de Residuos Químicos Peligrosos. Conclusión: Con el Plan se hizo posible la prevención de accidentes y enfermedades relacionadas al trabajo y a la promoción de la salud humana y ambiental, como factores de sostenibilidad en el sector salud hospitalario.Descriptores: Hospitales Docentes, Residuos Químicos, Salud Ocupacional, Salud Pública, Salud Ambiental.

The University

The prudent management of hazardous materials, from their procurement to their proper disposal, is a critical element of a departmental laboratory safety program. However, it is known that the management of chemical residues involves a high cost and few studies are carried out aiming at assisting in the implementation of this system of management mainly about educational and research institutions. This work therefore presents the economic feasibility analysis in the implementation of the chemical waste management system in laboratories of a Brazilian University. The data were obtained through a questionnaire applied to the technicians of the laboratories generating chemical residues, these being, teaching, research and clinics of the university. The economic-financial analysis has shown that the internal treatment of waste with the construction of a laboratory in the university is an unfeasible project. However, the project is feasible using the already existing structure, such as the chemistry laboratory in the idle periods. In this way, waste treatment on the university campus is feasible, in relation to the costs involved with outsourcing. However, it is necessary to ensure that the chemical standards for sewage disposal, as stipulated by the responsible bodies, are achieved.
