This Chapter
This chapter includes regulatory information about recycling that needs to be followed.
Basis
With the information given in this chapter, the situation in the European Union and the
EC-Directives pertaining to waste disposal are taken into consideration. Outside the Euro-
pean Union, comparable statutory regulations are binding.
12.1 Disposal of Packing Material
According to Direction 94/62/EC on packaging and packaging waste, the manufacturer is
responsible for the disposal of packing material. However, since the unit packaging for
PyroTec™ PRO is specially designed, replacement is costly. It is recommended that the
packaging is kept on site for easy retrieval should it be needed.

Since the material processed by the PyroTec™ PRO is unknown to Lonza detailed infor-
mation on how to dispose of it cannot be given here.
Chemical, biological, and radioactive hazards can be associated with the waste material
from the process run on the PyroTec™ PRO.
Treat these substances and disposables, such as microplates, system liquid, etc. in accord-
ance with good laboratory practice guidelines.

country, state, or region.
When disposing of operating material of the PyroTec™ PRO the relevant national and re-
gional laws, directives and recommendations must be followed.
