1. Pre-treatment: When medical waste enters a waste incinerator, it usually requires initial pre-treatment. This includes steps such as sorting, cutting and crushing to ensure that the waste can be burned away more smoothly. At the same time, the pre-treatment process needs to be arranged for the classification of hazardous waste to avoid secondary pollution.
2. Design of medical waste incinerator: the design of medical waste incinerator needs to consider its capacity, heating method, control equipment, gas treatment and other factors. The design should ensure that the medical waste can be completely incinerated, while controlling the concentration and amount of exhaust gas emissions inside and outside the furnace.
3. Curing: Some chemically stable but potentially highly toxic medical wastes should be treated with curing technologies. For example, these wastes are cured and other stabilizing materials are added so that they can be collected and disposed of more safely.
4. In-oven treatment: The temperature inside the incinerator usually reaches over 1000°C, which can effectively sterilize and decompose the waste. Of course, the in-oven treatment also ensures that heavy metals, organics and other hazardous substances emitted with the flue gas are completely burned or decomposed.
5. Gas treatment: medical waste incineration will produce a large amount of gaseous waste, so it needs to be equipped with gas treatment equipment, such as flue gas treatment system, denitrification system, dust removal system. Waste and gas emissions also need to be monitored and recorded to ensure safety and compliance.
In summary, medical waste incinerators need to be considered and handled in a number of ways for safe waste treatment methods. At the same time, the government should also take appropriate regulatory measures to ensure that medical waste incinerators are able to comply with environmental regulations and standards during the treatment process.
