The classification and disposal of medical waste is:
Medical waste is complex, according to the Classification Catalog of Medical Waste, medical waste is classified as infectious waste, injurious waste, pathologic waste, chemical waste, and pharmaceutical waste, etc.
Infectious waste: medical waste that can carry pathogenic microorganisms with the risk of spreading infectious diseases, such as patients' blood, body fluids, and excreta.
Infectious waste: medical waste that can carry pathogenic microorganisms with the risk of spreading infectious diseases, such as patients' blood, body fluids, excreta, and so on.
Pathological waste: human waste and medical laboratory animal carcasses generated during the diagnosis and treatment process.
Injurious waste: can stab or cut the human body discarded medical sharps, such as needles, scalpels and so on.
Pharmaceutical waste: expired, obsolete or contaminated waste medicines.
Chemical waste: toxic and corrosive waste chemicals.
Medical waste treatment methods:
One, high-temperature incineration method
Medical waste at a certain temperature and sufficient oxygen conditions, can be completely burned into ashes. Under the action of high-temperature flame, incineration equipment within the medical waste through the drying, ignition, incineration of three stages will be converted into residue and gas, pathogenic microorganisms and harmful substances in the incineration process is also due to the high temperature and the effective destruction.
Two, pyrolysis treatment method
The pyrolysis method is the use of waste in the thermal instability of organic matter, the organic components of medical waste in the anaerobic or oxygen-poor conditions of high-temperature heating, heat energy to make compounds of the chemical bond breaking, so that large molecular weight of the organic matter into a combustible gas, liquid fuels, and the process of coke.
This treatment technology and incineration method compared with the lower temperature, no open flame combustion process, heavy metals and so on most of the residue to remain in the residue, can recover a large amount of thermal energy, a better solution to the biggest problem of medical waste incineration treatment technology.
Three, sterilization and disinfection method
Sterilization and disinfection treatment methods are more, can take high temperature and high pressure steam sterilization, chemical disinfection, microwave disinfection method. Mainly through high temperature, high pressure, chemical reagents, a certain frequency or wavelength of microwave technology, destroying microorganisms and viruses to destroy the living environment, reduce the degree of medical waste on human health and environmental hazards.
