Medical waste includes: household waste from medical institutions, uncontaminated infusion bottles and bags, medical waste, medical wastewater, and sludge from wastewater treatment. (1) The regulatory requirements for domestic waste in medical institutions are the same as those for urban domestic waste. (2) Uncontaminated infusion bottle bags are comprehensively utilized by recycling enterprises designated by the commerce department. (3) The **List of Hazardous Wastes (2021 Edition)** no longer simply states that \"medical waste is classified as hazardous waste\"; instead, it lists the various types of medical waste in the appendices to this list, and specifies that \"the classification of medical waste shall be carried out in accordance with the Catalogue for the Classification of Medical Waste.\" (4) Medical wastewater and sludge from wastewater treatment must be disinfected; after disinfection, they are no longer considered hazardous waste.
