The present disclosure relates to a kit for cleaning biological fluids from a surface. The kit comprises at least one protective article of clothing, absorbent powder, a trash bag, surface sanitizer, an absorbent towel, a scraper, a handle, and a dustpan. The dustpan is configured to be securely coupled to the handle. The dustpan has a lid and a base and can alternate between an open position and a self-sealing closed position. In the closed position the base and lid define an interior volume having a height along a y-axis, a width along an x-axis, and a depth along a z-axis. An adhesive strip is coupled to a lip of the dustpan and is configured to interact with a surface and temporarily engage the dustpan with the surface. The absorbent powder is a mixture of a super absorbent polymer and perlite.

There is provided a method and composition for sequestration of arsenic, the method comprising melting an arsenic-containing material in the presence of iron oxide and glass, and yielding a resulting glass incorporating arsenic. The resulting glass has an arsenic content comprised in a range between 1 and 25% w/w and an iron content comprised in a range between 8 and 20% w/w.

A waste receiver for receiving pharmaceutical waste material and adapted to be releasably secured to a fixed surface is disclosed. The waste receiver comprises a receiver body with a fluid absorber and a chemical composition disposed within the receiver body. The receiver body defines an opening for receiving the pharmaceutical waste material and comprises an inner surface defining a container volume in fluid communication with the opening, and an outer surface opposite the inner surface with the outer surface defining a lock passageway through the receiver body and a keyway comprising a portion of the lock passageway. The lock passageway is adapted to receive a locking assembly and the keyway is adapted to receive an engagement feature of the locking assembly to releasably secure the waste receiver to the locking assembly in a single orientation. The waste receiver also comprises a cover adapted to be coupled with the receiver body.

A waste disposal system with a waste receiver for receiving pharmaceutical waste material. A locking assembly is secured to a fixed surface and actuated from a locked configuration to an unlocked configuration. A lock cylinder of the locking assembly may extend forward of a front wall of a receiver body of the waste receiver to engage a locking feature of the cover in the locked configuration. A cover retention feature may prevent axial decoupling of the cover from the receiver body. An engagement feature is moved to be disengaged from the receiver body, and the receiver body is moved away from the fixed surface to disengage the locking assembly from the cover. The cover is decoupled from the cover retention feature, and coupled with the receiver body to seal the pharmaceutical waste material. The locking assembly may be removed from a lock passageway for disposal of the waste receiver.
