OnSite Waste Technologies is a firm located in
Newport Beach, California. We are committed to
lowering the risk, cost, and effects that medical
waste treatment and disposal leave on the
environment. Our current technology TE-5000 is a
processing unit of the size of a desktop but
transforms the waste, including syringes into
disinfected garbage. It lessens the CO2 influence
by lessening waste. Our mission is to reduce the
transportation of waste to any common location.
We are dedicated to presenting greener and
cleaner options for processing the disposal of
medical wastes. We also look forward to assisting
NGOs, first responders, and government agencies
to dispose of large quantities of sharps waste to
minimize the risk for community members, workers,
and others.

5 Cautious Ways to Dispose of Medical Waste
  Medical waste in simple terms is any item that
comes into contact with body fluids. Potentially
these items can be sharps, needles, wipes, paper
towels, gloves, syringes without needles,
bandages, and catheters with small amounts of dry
blood or fluid. According to a recent study in
the United States, every person produces 13 lbs.
of medical waste per year. The major sources of
this medical waste are hospitals, veterinary
clinics, and tattoo body piercing
parlors. Previously, this medical waste was
disposed of like normal trash in bags and plastic
boxes. However, this process steered the spread
of various diseases and viruses. Today, medical
waste disposal companies have evolved various
processes to properly dispose of such hazardous
material. These processes are substantially
efficient and ensure public safety.

Incineration Incineration is the process of
burning specific pathological and pharmaceutical
wastes. High thermal temperature transforms
medical wastes into the inorganic and
incombustible matter. This method is considered
the safest and most effective method for treating
medical waste as it significantly reduces the
volume and weight of the waste by simultaneously
preventing harm to public health. Autoclaving Au
toclaves are used to dispose of waste medical
equipment such as surgical knives, sharps, and
clamps. The closed chamber of an autoclave
applies heat and pressure on the equipment to
destroy harmful microorganisms. The operating
temperature of an autoclave is usually 250 to 280
degrees F. The whole process of autoclaving is
chemical-free, which is appealing to many
stakeholders in the waste management
business. Irradiation The process of
irradiation involves exposing waste medical
equipment to gamma rays to kill fatal bacteria.
The radiation source used is the radioactive
isotope of cobalt. This method is used only to
dispose of and sterilize medical equipment and is
not recommended for pathological wastes. Gamma
radiations not only kill harmful microbes but
also break down various chemicals.

On-Site Destruction On-site treatment of medical
waste is usually done by using disposal
equipment, which offers efficient and independent
treatment of biohazardous waste. It helps in
saving the cost of transportation, which is
higher in off-site treatment. Both solid and
liquid wastes, including sharp objects, are
converted in just a single cycle. With zero
dangerous emissions, these machines are simple
and safe to use.   Conclusion No matter what
type of medical waste you are producing, it is
especially important to dispose of and eliminate
it. Taking hazardous waste lightly will
potentially harm workers health and jeopardize
public safety. Several medical waste disposal
companies can help you with managing and
disposing of dangerous waste in compliance with
government and industry standards. Take your time
to sort, contain, and dispose of your medical
waste with the help of a reputed medical waste
disposal company safely and legally.
