Although its waste proportion and waste cost were relatively high, topotecan was excluded from further analysis since its occasional use made it a poor candidate for waste recovery.
Waste proportion for all 29 drugs equaled 9.6% of the total amount of reconstituted drugs, with a net loss of 180,000 €, corresponding to 6.4percentnt of the Department's annual drug expenditures (Table 1).
a2006 official hospital drug prices in Italy are available at [21] Corrective measures were successful in reducing the waste proportion of all "hot" drugs, with the only exception of docetaxel, whose leftovers did not show any substantial variation.
Following the application of waste containment measures, waste proportion for all drugs decreased from 9.6 to 6.5%, meaning a 41percentnt reduction of the overall waste cost as compared to the previous year and a decrease from 6.4 to 3.1% with respect to the estimated pharmaceutical expenditure (Table 2).
a2006 official hospital drug prices in Italy are available at [21] Fluctuations in waste proportion appeared to be of different magnitude for different drugs, and median wastage rate showed marked variability as well, ranging from 1.1% for bleomycin to more than 50% for topotecan.
Sand was replaced by these waste in different proportions (25%, 50 %, 75, and 100%) by weight of sand.
Each of the 2050 scenarios are modelled via adjustments to five key drivers: economic growth linked to material consumption; proportion of materials imported; decarbonisation of grid and transport; waste management; and proportion of recyclate exported.
A great gushing waterfall would release it into sealable caverns previously reserved for nuclear waste, with a proportion kept back to be used for steam-cleaning heavy machinery.
The amount of waste, and the proportion of hazardous waste, was found to vary significantly with the size and type of HCE.
It could be concluded that addition of fly ash to green waste at a proportion higher than 25% did not improve the quality parameters of manufactured soil.
