Abstract

- India is one among the many countries, has a serious concern on biomedical waste disposal. Now-a-days
hospital waste can be used in production of concrete. Many hospitals in India are directly disposing their waste by
burning used needle, syringe etc. According to Biomedical Waste Rule (2000), hospitals are collecting dead human
bodies and other waste from laboratories in yellow plastic bags and waste like needle and syringes in red bags. For
reducing massive volume of medical waste generated in country, incineration is the only process from which fly ash can
be produced. Partial replacement can be done by Biomedical Waste Ash (BWA) in concrete to prevent hazardous effect
into the environment. The permeability and compaction characteristics of soil fly ash mixture made with different
percentage of medical fly ash are compared to evaluate the effectiveness of recycled medical waste ash.
