Designed specifically for the treatment of medical and / or hospital waste, even infected with COVID, it has been designed to offer maximum production capacity thanks to the highest level of automation. Automation is also necessary because the sub-systems are hosted in a huge vacuum chamber with access for inspections guaranteed by a sealed chamber equipped with sterilizing showers.
The treatment of medical and / or hospital waste is regulated by extremely strict legislation. This requires that the waste at the end of processing, given its dangerous and / or potentially infectious nature, must be sterilized and disposed of.
For us this is not enough as there is no sterilization system able to compete with the inertization guaranteed thanks to the temperatures of thousands of degrees released inside the plasma chamber: only from the use of the plasma torch in line is there the mathematical certainty to eliminate any risk of spillage of pathogens and, therefore, to be able to offer total relief from responsibility for the operators involved also from COVID!
Medical and / or hospital waste must be definitively inerted and, to date, the most economically sustainable, as well as safer system, both for operators and for the environment and which, at the same time, ensures their definitive inertization and also allows recovery of parts of the elements that form them in the form of energy or chemicals is represented by high temperature treatment. Through the system developed by Chemical Empowering, the sanitary and / or hospital waste, at infectious and / or dangerous risk, even if it comes into contact with COVID, is pre-treated in a vacuum environment by shredding and, once deprived of any liquids present, moved through hermetic augers, up to the grinding and placing first in the storage container and then in the real plasma chamber.
The ambient air in depression, as well as all liquids contained in the shredded medical and / or hospital waste, are placed in the plasma torch without the possibility of leaks or spills.
From the torch, on the other hand, only lava that can be molded into objects of common use will come out, and syngas with a very high level of purity.
Our system is not cold, does not use incinerators and applies plasma technology for the definitive inertization of waste, thus also skipping the possible step of creating RDFs because they will be the syngas released by the organic component of medical waste and / or hospitals to be subsequently and possibly used in the high-performance ORC system used to produce electricity.
The syngas obtained from the treatment, even if used to produce energy, is, in its own right, to be considered a green energy as it derives from the synthesis of the syngas obtained from the treatment by gasification and plasma of mostly carbon-based waste.
