Managing hospital waste is a major challenge due to its dangerous nature and the threats it poses to public health and the environment.Traditional disposal methods often prove insufficient in terms efficiency and regulatory compliance, which highlights the need for technological innovation. Artificial Intelligence has become a transformational tool in optimising waste classification, predictive modelling and logistics planning. This review examines the use of artificial intelligence in hospital waste management, evaluating its advantages, challenges and potential developments.By integrating AI-based automation, hospitals can increase efficiency, improve regulatory compliance and reduce environmental risks.
Key words: Hospital Waste Management / Artificial Intelligence / Healthcare / Solid waste management
