Medical waste, a concept that covers a wide range of areas, is not limited to hospitals and laboratories, but is also generated from time to time in households. Especially when it comes to the disposal of needles and syringes.
Its proper disposal and management is the key to ensuring environmental safety and maintaining public health. In this area, it is definitely wise to seek the help of a professional medical waste disposal company.
LI-YING, as a leader in the industry, with its professional knowledge and advanced resources, provides you with solution suggestions for your medical waste management.
The first step in medical waste management begins with classification at the source. LI-YING understands that different categories of medical waste need to be handled independently, therefore, we recommend the use of special containers with distinctive colors for collection.
Red for sharps (e.g. needles, razor blades), biohazardous red labeled containers are used for infectious wastes, yellow corresponds to trace chemotherapeutic wastes, black is used for hazardous wastes, and blue is exclusively used for pharmaceutical wastes, while radioactive wastes are stored in containers with a red marking. Radioactive waste is stored in yellow shielded containers with radioactive symbols.
This careful categorization provides a solid foundation for subsequent treatment. In fact, many countries and regions with mature medical waste management systems use color coding for waste classification, including North America and the European Union. Common colors include red, yellow, blue, black, and orange.
Once the collection is complete, the medical waste disposal company or certain departments in the hospital are responsible for the safe storage and transportation of the medical waste. All waste is stored in dedicated facilities with strictly limited public access, away from food consumption areas to ensure environmental safety.
For transportation, we have developed special vehicles with high-tech protective equipment (MTV Series Transfer Vehicles) that ensure safety at every step.
The ultimate destination for medical waste is safe and environmentally friendly disposal, and instead of the traditional environmentally hazardous incineration method, LI-YING introduces microwave sterilization as a new option for the treatment of injurious and infectious waste.
Compared with autoclaving, microwave sterilization has become the new favorite of modern medical waste treatment with its faster and more uniform heating speed and more thorough sterilization effect. Whether it is a large hospital or a medical waste treatment company, LI-YING can provide customized microwave sterilization solutions. For example, integrated microwave sterilization and shredding equipment (MDU, MDV series) make medical waste treatment more efficient and convenient.
At LI-YING, we are committed to leading a new era of medical waste management with technology. By choosing LI-YING, you are choosing a safe, efficient and environmentally friendly future.Explore our healthcare solutions today and make medical waste management easy and hassle-free!
