Incineration

At our facility Biomedical waste destructed by the combustion of organic substances contained in biomedical waste materials. Solid biomedical waste (category1) is treated by thermal treatment through incinerator. Incineration of category 1 waste converts the biomedical waste into ash, flue gas, and heat. The ash is mostly formed by the inorganic constituents of the waste, and may take the form of solid lumps or particulates carried by the flue gas. The flue gases are cleaned and gaseous and particulate pollutants before they are dispersed into the atmosphere.

Facility has 12 TPD Incinerator with Primary and secondary chambers. In primary chamber we are maintaining 800⁰C temperatures and in secondary chamber 1050⁰C temperature is maintained. Auxiliary burners are provided which automatically switch on and off and maintain temperature at primary and secondary chambers for complete destruction of hazardous waste as per BMW rules 2016.

Alkaline Scrubbing mechanism is provided to achieve prescribed flue gas parameters as per biomedical waste rules 2016. Residence time in secondary chamber for flue gases is 2 sec. We are monitoring Dioxin and Furan once in a year.
