Abstract: This paper analyzes the current situation collection and management situation of medical waste of COVID-19 in China, and summarized some shortcomings, including the inadequacy of environmental biological safety control standards for collection devices, the lack of a correct understanding of medical waste management, and the lack of medical waste emergency management system. In order to complement the shortcomings of the environmental biological risk control system, this study analyzes the current collection technology and management trends, recommends that: (1) Encourage research on a wide range of classification and collection facilities that can be widely used for general household waste, general medical waste and highly contagious medical waste, as well as for human and ecologically sound collection facilities, which can integrate biosafety control technologies into waste-classification facilities. (2) Reasonable and standardized management of medical waste is the focus of urban and rural environmental management, but there are still some loopholes in the collection and disposal of civilian epidemic prevention waste, and emergency standards for civilian medical waste management of major public events of infectious diseases with COVID-19 should be developed as soon as possible. (3) In order to supervise the medical waste management process in real time, we can use 'industrial internet', 'smart environmental protection' and 'Internet plus' in combination of '5G' technology to build a 'data closed loop-timely supervision' database to improve the efficiency of collection and management.
