Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to an infectious waste treatment apparatus and an infectious waste treatment method capable of safely treating an infectious waste disposed of in a hospital or the like.
In general, wastes generated by medical institutions including hospitals include biological wastes for clinical experiments in hospitals, as well as wastes such as extracts, blood collection ampoules, urine ampoules, injection bottles, syringes, bandages, gauzes, and the like. Special care and treatment should be taken, including infectious bacteria that can infect the human body.
The treatment method of infectious waste generated in such a medical institution usually uses an incineration treatment method in an incinerator like general waste, or a treatment method using steam sterilization grinding.
However, the incineration method consumes a large amount of fuel for incineration, generates harmful compounds containing chlorine and carbon mixtures, and incineration releases environmental pollutants such as chemicals and dust including dioxins and carbon dioxide. Of course, there was a problem that the residual amount of waste generated after incineration had to be treated separately.
In addition, in the case of the treatment method using steam sterilization crushing, not only a large amount of wastewater and chemicals are generated, but also a residual waste is generated, there is a problem that must be treated separately such residual waste.
In order to solve the conventional problems as described above of the present invention, an object of the present invention is an infectious waste treatment apparatus and infectious to enable efficient and safe treatment of infectious waste using microwave (microwave) It is to provide a waste disposal method.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an infectious waste treatment apparatus and an infectious waste treatment method for separating solid wastes and liquid wastes from infectious wastes so that they can be efficiently and safely treated using microwaves, respectively.
An object of the present invention is a crusher is injected into the infectious waste, the crushing the injected infectious waste;
A steam injector for injecting steam into the infectious waste comminuted in the mill;
A conveyor for transporting infectious waste through the steam injector;
A microwave generator for generating microwaves to sterilize infectious wastes transferred to the conveyor by oilfield heating;
It is solved by providing an infectious waste treatment apparatus including a waste storage member for storing infectious waste transferred from the conveyor.
In addition, the object of the present invention is a crushing step of crushing the infectious waste with a crusher;
A steam injection step of injecting steam to the infectious waste which has been subjected to the grinding step;
Removing infectious germs that are sterilized by microwave heating while infecting the infectious wastes passed through the steam injection step to a conveyor;
It is solved by providing an infectious waste treatment method including a general waste treatment step of collecting and transporting infectious waste that has undergone the infectious pathogen removal step as a general waste.
The present invention has the effect of minimizing environmental pollution caused by waste treatment as well as waste treatment by enabling the treatment of infectious waste into general waste using microwave (Microwave). .
In addition, the present invention is to effect the sterilization of germs contained in the infectious waste completely to safely treat the infectious waste.
When described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
1 is a schematic view showing the structure of the present invention, which schematically shows a process in which infectious waste passing through a crusher, a dehydrator and a steam injector is sterilized by microwaves while being transported through a screw conveyor and then loaded onto a truck by a bucket conveyor. .
Figure 2 is a schematic diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention, the liquid infectious waste separated by the dehydrator is a pre-heated by a heater and sterilized while passing through a sterilizer equipped with a microwave generator after sterilization treatment process.
Figure 3 is a block diagram showing the infectious waste treatment method of the present invention, showing a process of separating and treating the solid infectious waste and liquid infectious waste after the dehydration process.
As shown in FIG. 1, infectious waste generated in a hospital and stored in a waste bin is introduced into the

Infectious wastes generated in hospitals are classified into solid wastes and liquid wastes. In many cases, liquid wastes remain inside solid wastes, and the liquid wastes remaining in solid wastes have the effect of sterilizing solid infectious wastes by microwaves. Degradation and disposal along with the solid infectious waste had been a problem that is not sterilized by the microwave.
Therefore, the infectious waste crushed by the
