‘Unique’ clinical waste destruction

A patented British technology that combines destruction of organic, solid wastes at source, with clean generation of hot water, will be launched by QCR.

The EA-approved PyroPure ‘smallscale process’ for destroying clinical waste is reportedly ‘unique’, and should ‘reduce, or even eliminate’ the need for clinical grade bins and the ‘cost and carbon impact’ of their collection. The residue is treated as grey water, leaving only ‘easily recyclable’ glass and metal. PyroPure’s key benefits are:

•  Waste is destroyed safely and cleanly on site as soon as it is generated.
•  The costs and environmental impact of collection, incineration, and landfill, are removed.
•  All organic waste types are destroyed.
•  No need to empty waste bags, or remove wrappings.
•  Plastic and organic waste can be combined and processed simultaneously.
•  Waste storage in bins is eliminated.
•  The ‘system by-product’ is a free source of hot water.
