Process of Managing the Medical Waste
Medical waste needs to be treated with care and caution, not like standard trash tossed into garbage containers. It is a step-by-step process.
Segregation: This process reduces the volume of waste and toxicity, making it easier for waste transportation. The segregation process has three important parameters, composition, quantity and the disposal.
Separating: The medical waste collected from different medical centers, infectious, pathological sharps and waste needs to be deposited in allocated and labeled containers for different type of wastes. Size of containers is proportional to the volume of waste generated at a center.
Packaging and labeling: The next step involves packaging this medical waste in uniform color code and then label the waste.
Common storage: Collect the medical waste from the common storage point and segregate it.
Transportation: Transport the medical waste collected from common storage point to the common Bio-Medical waste treatment facility storage point.

Treatment: Process of incineration is implemented, includes destruction of waste by burning it as high temperature. First the removal of toxicity is achieved, value of waste decreases and converts to ash. Incineration process gives best results for destruction of pathological and sharp wastes. Another important step is autoclaving process, facilitating in killing infectious material and bacteria in the biomedical waste, it is noninfectious and go for landfill. To destroy waste such as vials, glass, plastics, syringes, blades, scalpels etc., shredding machine is used as it cuts waste into small pieces. This results in unrecognizable waste which is safe for disposal recycling and landfill.
