Medical waste is also known as biomedical waste. Medical waste includes waste associated with the medical origin that visually appears to be of medical or laboratory origin (e.g., packaging, unused bandages, infusion kits, etc.), as well research laboratory waste containing biomolecules or organisms that are restricted from environmental release. Segregation is an ideal technique used in medical waste management. Segregation prevents the contamination of non-hazardous waste by the hazardous waste. Thus, this method will reduce the toxicity and the volume of the waste stream. Moreover, segregation makes it easier to transport the waste. Waste is segregated depending on the quantity, composition, and the disposal method of the waste stream. These segregated medical waste further treated with chemicals, autoclave, incineration or others method depend on upon the type of waste. Examples of medical waste include discarded blood, sharps, unwanted microbiological cultures and stocks, identifiable body parts (including those as a result of amputation), other human or animal tissue, used bandages and dressings, discarded gloves, other medical supplies that may have been in contact with blood and body fluids.

Medical waste management is driven mainly by the rapidly increasing number of the aging population across the globe. Moreover, increasing initiatives by government authorities is the key factor for fueling the growth of medical waste management market. In addition, advance research and technology are among the various factors which are directly responsible for increasing the growth of medical waste management market. However, the requirement of high capital investment is a key limitation which directly affects the growth of medical waste management market.
