11. Medical waste Is the classification given to dangerous residues produced in hospitals, like syringes, aprons, etc. By containing harmful agents this kind of garbage is separated from the rest of the residues produced in hospitals (leftovers, etc), and it is generally incinerated. However, certain hospital supplies, like aprons that were into contact with electromagnetic rays of high energy like X rays, are classified in a different way (the apron is considered nuclear waste) and have a different treatment.

44. Conclusion After knowing where the things we throw away go, and what processes they suffer, it is possible to affirm that the elimination and treatment of our garbage is one of the most contributing factors for the pollution of the atmosphere, and sometimes (several times),water and soil pollution, when inadequately thrown away. Also after knowing a little bit more about the garbage workers, we think we need to be more respectful to them, once that they rend a dirty function, which the only goal is to serve society, cleaning her garbage and keeping it away from our door. Daily dealing with dirtiness and bad smells.
