Contaminated waste (recyclable) is to be stored in which colour coded container as per the Biomedical Waste (Management and Handling) Rules, 2016 :

  • A.Yellow
  • B.Red
  • C.White
  • D.Blue

Answer: B

Contaminated recyclable waste goes in the red container.

The Bio-Medical Waste Management Rules, 2016 use four colour categories. Red bags or containers are for contaminated recyclable waste such as tubing, bottles, intravenous sets, catheters, syringes without needles and gloves, which is autoclaved or treated and then recycled.

Yellow is for anatomical, soiled and chemical waste that is incinerated; white (translucent, puncture-proof) containers are for sharps such as needles; and blue is for glassware and metallic implants.
