| * no gaseous or liquid emissions other than
oxygen * no start up time-simply press a button * instant deodorisation * short residence time-about 4 minutes * no chlorine or other environmentally harmful chemicals * no heating required * small footprint but can be sized up or down * moveable to other locations if necessary * quiet in operation-can be sited in immediate proximity to wards * can be operated by one person * no contact with the waste using wheelie bins or other containers * deals with sharps and trace cytotoxics-possibly bulk cytotoxics * automated from start to finish requiring little skill |
* failsafe computer activated shutdown
procedures * complete computer recording of operation,loads,inputs with display * can be sited outdoors or undercover * low energy demands compared to incineration and other technologies * lowest greenhouse gas impact-process recovers CO2 from atmosphere * extremely low operating costs * treated waste can be stored onsite without risk * treated waste will not recontaminate * approximately 80% volume reduction * highly compatible for disposal with other treated solid wastes * very compatible with waste minimisation steps taken by waste generators * treated waste is pre-conditioned for landfill disposal * final product is stable, inert, reduced and unrecogniseable |
