How It Works?
You can examine the working stages of the sterilization device below.
1-LOADING
- At the beginning of the cycle, once the upper lid opens, the operator loads the waste into the loading chamber.
2- SHREDDING / MICROWAVE
The shredder, controlled by the PLC, changes rotation direction due to its “anti-blocking” capability, which prevents the blades from jamming. During the shredding process, the waste can be treated with microwaves generated by 6 integrated magnetron units (optional).
Our specially designed shredder is capable of grinding very hard materials such as surgical stainless steel instruments and hard ceramics.
3- HEATING / STERILIZATION
Heating is achieved by injecting saturated steam until the uniform temperature in both the upper and lower chambers reaches 134°C (274°F). Sterilization is then completed by maintaining a temperature of 134°C (274°F) to 138°C (280°F) and equivalent pressure for a period of 10 to 15 minutes. These conditions enable a reduction in the pathogenic contamination level in medical waste by 8 Log 10 units.
4- COOLING AND DRAINING
Excess steam in the chamber is removed during the cooling phase, and the temperature of the ground sterilized waste is lowered by injecting cold air into the autoclave chamber.
The condensed water, which is sterile and can be safely discharged into the sewage system, is drained using positive pressure or vacuum assistance.
5- UNLOADING
Once the unloading lid opens and a container is positioned beneath the waste drawer, the operator pulls out the drawer and empties the sterile waste into the container.
As the container is removed, the lower lid closes, and the sterilizer automatically initiates the next cycle.
According to the COMMUNIQUE FOR WASTE TRANSPORTATION IN ROADS Except for the medical waste transport vehicle, there is a “Waste Transport Vehicle” with a vertical height of at least 20 cm on the sides and back of the transport vehicle chassis or tanker.
The outer surfaces of the medical waste transport vehicles are orange color, with the appropriate size to be seen on the right, left and rear surfaces and in black colored “International Biohazard” emblem and in black letters “ATTENTION! MEDICAL WASTE” must be found.
Our medical waste transportation vehicles are manufactured in accordance with the Communiqué on the Transport of Waste on the Highways.
Features of our Medical Waste Transport Vehicles
- The waste bin of medical waste trucks is designed to be robust, durable and leakproof.
- There is a lock on the covers of medical waste casings.
- The rear and side shields of the medical waste truck are available.
- The transport part is made of stainless steel material with smooth surface which can be easily cleaned and disinfected.
- In the design, which prevents the accumulation of fluid in the conveying section, the intersecting surfaces are joined together with soft turns so that they do not have vertical corners.
- In accordance with the regulation, there is absolutely no compression mechanism in the transport section of medical waste trucks.
There is a safe distance between the waste transport section (medical waste container) and the driver’s site.(It is available in the manufacture of vehicles to prevent possible collision at the time of accident.)
There is an appropriate size and black color “International Biohazard” emblem visible on the right, left and back surfaces and “CAUTION MEDICAL WASTE” written in black letters.
The whole vehicle (including the case and cup) is “ORANGE” color.
Medical waste transport vans used by hospitals and health centers have specially produced cranes and hydraulic systems.
