We offer medical waste incineration as part of the waste disposal process.
Medical waste incineration is a method used for properly disposing of medical waste, particularly biohazardous waste. This process uses high temperature burning and subjects the material to intense heat within a controlled incinerator. Typically, medical waste undergoing the incineration process is exposed to temperatures ranging anywhere from 1,472 degrees Fahrenheit to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
When the medical waste is put into the incinerator, the high heat effectively sterilizes the waste, destroying the pathogens, toxins, and other potentially infectious materials present in the medical waste. The medical waste incineration process also reduces the volume of the waste significantly, as all the organic materials are converted into either ash or gases.
Medical waste incineration is a highly regulated process, and it requires adherence to strict environmental standards to ensure the wase is exposed of safely and that air pollution is minimized. While there are many alternatives to medical waste incineration, in many cases, it is the best option for eliminating biohazardous waste and preventing the spread of infection and illness.
