Why use Medical Waste Incinerator?
Medical waste incinerators are used to effectively manage medical waste due to their ability to eliminate
a significant portion of hazardous and potentially infectious materials. Incineration is a process that heats
the waste to very high temperatures, often exceeding 1,000°C, which effectively destroys pathogens and viruses,
including those that are highly infectious and resistant, such as COVID-19 and Ebola. This thermal oxidation process reduces the volume of waste,
making it safer for disposal and preventing the spread of diseases through the waste material.
Moreover, incineration is considered the most effective method for reducing medical
waste volume by up to 99%, which is crucial in managing waste in areas where landfill
space is limited or where the proper disposal of medical waste is a significant concern.
This process not only helps to protect the environment by reducing the amount of waste
that needs to be disposed of in landfills but also helps to prevent the contamination
of water sources and the spread of diseases through improper waste management.
In summary, medical waste incinerators are used because they provide a safe and
effective way to manage potentially infectious and hazardous medical waste,
reducing the risk of disease transmission and protecting the environment.
