| Abstract: | A set of surveys was carried out aimed at obtaining precise but general information about Pharmaceutical waste production in Malta. It is evident, from the attempt of defining hazardous waste that this is not an easy task (Croner 1988) and therefore, Pharmaceutical waste was divided into two, for simplicity. The first group characterized by waste presented as expired, unused and/or substandard Pharmaceutical preparations, while the second group comprising chemicals of no further economic value, which are used in anyone or more of the processes involved in the production of Pharmaceutical products. |
