Chemicals <br />are purchased in small amounts and stored in the individual laboratories. Waste stream <br />quantities fluctuate with the volume of research activities in progress. Recent laboratory <br />shutdowns, remodels and moves have resulted in numerous laboratory clean -outs generating <br />an increase in this waste stream. A focus on discarding expired chemicals and unnecessary <br />chemical inventory ha 's also lent to an increase.
