Chaithra K. M., Dr. Sadashivamurthy B. M.


Abstract: Bio medical waste management (BMW) has become an important issue as it poses potential health risks and damage to the environment. Bio medical waste (BMW) if not handled in a proper way, is a potent source of diseases like HIV, Hepatitis B & C and other bacterial diseases causing serious threat to human health so prime attention needed for its safe and proper disposal.
