ACHMM
ACHMMAcademy of Certified Hazardous Materials Managers, Inc. is a US organization,
formed by experts in environmental and health management.
The members organise seminars, workshops and meetings, to discuss
procedures for better environmental and hazardous material management.
They have set up many chapters all over the world, in various countries.
Hazardous materials are generated at different stages of day-to-day life.
Most of these materials are released from industries all over the world.
Wastes released, without proper treatment pose great threats to the environment.
An efficient waste management process includes proper storing, disposing and
treatment of wastes. Wastes generated in offices, houses, laboratories,
industries, factories, etc have different methods of storage, disposal and treatment.
This organisation tries to bring awareness among people and make them practice
better and safe methods of waste management.
Improper treatment/disposal of wastes can cause severe health problems.
The India Chapter of ACHMM, located in Bangalore has organised
a 3-day workshop and a 2-day seminar recently in Bangalore. Delegates from US,
UK and India have taken part in the 5-day program and presented their views.
This organisation is for professionals and experts in health,environment and waste
management. It is also decided, to start a National Institute of Environmental and
Hazardous Materials Management by 2009.
