A waste management drive was performed from 2nd June to 6th June, 2022 by the Department of Chemistry in collaboration with IQAC, Suren Das College, Hajo. The handling and disposing of liquid/solid/glassware waste falls under the waste management. Direct disposing of chemical waste such a solid, liquid or solvent waste can have a huge impact on environment and can also cause serious problems which in turn requires for proper waste management. Looking at the importance of waste management, a group of 20 students from the 2nd and 4th semester (chemistry major) participated in this waste management drive and the results for the analysis has been presented as a report by the individual students. Different categorization for the common laboratory waste management have been practiced by introducing small containers/reagent bottles and drums of solid waste, glassware’s waste, chlorinated and non-chlorinated solvent waste, acidic waste, basic and neutral waste, etc. After the completion of drive, the students have learnt to handle the chemical waste in a scientific and systematic manner.
