Introduction
In 2004, the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants came into force and the World Health Organization released its Policy Paper on Safe Health-Care Waste Management. Since then more than 120 countries have ratified the Stockholm Convention, which requires the continuing minimization and, where feasible, ultimate elimination of releases of persistent organic pollutants, such as dioxins and furans, which are generated by medical waste incinerators. Annex C of the Convention states that priority should be given to technologies that prevent the formation and release of dioxins and furans, among others. In keeping with the Convention, the WHO policy paper calls for the effective, scaled-up promotion of non-incineration technologies. The purpose of this inventory is to provide a global listing of alternative technologies for the treatment of infectious waste. These alternative technologies operate under conditions that avoid formation of dioxins and furans. The inventory is intended for use by health and environment ministries, international organizations, aid agencies, multilateral lending institutions, national and local planners, policymakers, health-care professionals and nongovernmental organizations involved in health-care waste management or in the development of national and local health-care waste management plans. It is important to note that alternative treatment technologies should be part of a health-care waste management system. Such a system must include: pollution prevention; waste minimization; correct classification and segregation; proper containment; color-coding; safe handling and collection of waste; labeling and signage; proper storage and transport; and safe disposal of treated waste. Pollution prevention and waste minimization entails environmentally preferable procurement practices, source reduction, material substitution, safe reuse, recycling and composting of waste where possible. Other key aspects of a good health-care waste management system include: written policies; clear delineations of roles and responsibilities; the development of effective plans with stakeholder participation; effective implementation; regular training at all levels; motivational programs to promote process change; monitoring, periodic evaluation, and continuous program improvements; and full consideration of occupational safety and personal protection. It is in this context that any medical waste treatment technology should be considered.

Basic Types of Alternative Treatment Technologies


A wide range of alternative technologies are now commercially available. Steam sterilization in autoclaves is the most common alternative treatment method. Since autoclaves have been used in the treatment of infectious waste for many decades, their operation is well established. Several types of steam sterilizers or autoclaves are available: gravity-fed, pre-vacuum and pulse or multivacuum cycle autoclaves. Unlike incinerators, autoclaves heat the waste to temperatures high enough to disinfect but not hot enough to burn and create air pollutants such as dioxins and furans. Generally, the minimum time-temperature parameters for waste treatment in autoclaves are 30 minutes at 121C (250F) to achieve Level III disinfection (see STAATT criteria below). Level III disinfection is less than what one requires for the sterilization of surgical instruments but is more than sufficient to render infectious waste much safer than domestic waste. The actual timetemperature parameters should be determined by each facility based on its typical waste composition, type of containers used and method of stacking the waste in the autoclave. Microbial inactivation efficacy testing should be performed periodically using microbiological indicators (heat-resistant bacterial spores) and color-changing indicators. Rigorous segregation is important in order to exclude hazardous chemicals that should not be treated in an autoclave. Odors can be a problem with autoclaves when they are operated in an enclosed space, but proper ventilation or use of odor removers such as enzyme-based deodorants can minimize odors. This inventory lists manufacturers that offer autoclaves specifically for waste treatment, as well as manufacturers that sell autoclaves for instrument sterilization. There seem to be no commercial autoclaves specifically designed for treatment of waste in small rural clinics or health stations (a project under GEF, the Global Environmental Facility, and involving HCWH, WHO and the United Nations Development Program is currently developing small to medium-size medical waste autoclaves in Africa). For this reason, manufacturers of small to medium-size autoclaves for instrument sterilization have been included. Health facilities should not use the same autoclave for both waste and reusable medical instruments. Autoclaves specifically designed for waste are generally much larger and have a horizontal configuration to make it easier to load and remove waste. A major difference is the container used for autoclaving. Autoclaves for medical devices often use trays or stainless steel baskets, while waste autoclave use autoclavable carts or bucket-shaped open containers into which the plastic waste bags are stacked. Depending on the type of plastic bags used, some bags may melt and stick to the surfaces of the cart or container. Use of autoclavable plastic bags or liners that prevent sticking is an option. A post-treatment shredder or grinder could be used if the waste is to be rendered unrecognizable post-treatment shredder and if reduction of waste volume is desired. Advanced single- or multiple-shaft shredders specially made for medical waste are capable of reducing waste volume by about 80%. The advanced shredders are typically low-speed, high-torque, single-pass shredders with easily replaceable cutters and with discharge screens to control the size of shredded waste. Many shredders have ram assemblies to prevent bridging in the feed hopper, auto-reverse features to handle soft waste

that tends to get stuck in the shredder, and automatic shut-off to prevent damage from large hard metals. The GEF project is developing simple shredders for sharps waste. In the last few decades, a second generation of advanced steam-based systems has been developed for the purposes of improving heat transfer, decreasing the processing time, achieving more uniform heating of the waste and eliminating cold spots, rendering the waste unrecognizable, reducing waste volume significantly, making most of the operation automatic, and/or making the treatment system a continuous process. These advanced treatment technologies combine steam treatment with vacuuming, internal mixing or fragmentation, internal shredding, post-treatment drying, and compaction. Many are designed to remove odors using activated carbon or high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters. Often, the resulting waste is dry, unrecognizable, and compact, achieving as much as about 90% volume reduction. Unlike regular autoclaves, some of these advanced steam systems have been tested successfully for use with animal waste and could be used with pathological waste including anatomical parts. These advanced steam systems have higher capital costs than standard autoclaves of the same capacity. Microwave treatment Microwave treatment is another type of alternative technology. For years, the most common microwave device has been a medium- to large-scale, semi-continuous system using an internal shredder, rotating internal screw, and industrial magnetrons to generate microwave energy. The semi-continuous microwave unit has the advantage of low operating costs and no liquid effluent but the treated and shredded waste comes out moist. The semi-continuous system has its own steel enclosure and can be installed outside a building. Small batch microwave units are now also available and can be used in small hospitals, clinics or in departments of a large hospital. Microwave units generally have higher capital costs than standard autoclaves. Pathological and chemotherapeutic wastes can be treated using alkaline hydrolysis technology hydrolysis which combines steam sterilization with tissue digestion using sodium or potassium hydroxide. These technologies are designed to destroy anatomical parts, organs, tissues and animal carcasses, breaking down organic material into basic amino acids, sugars, soaps, salts, etc. and leaving behind a bone shadow of calcium. In principle, alkaline hydrolysis can also destroy many chemotherapeutic or cytotoxic agents, and aldehydes (such as formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde) commonly used in hospitals. There are also commercial dry heat treatment technologies Moist heat has been shown to be treatment technologies. more effective than dry heat in achieving disinfection, so dry heat systems generally require longer exposure times and higher temperatures to meet minimum disinfection levels. Other types of alternative technologies include biological and chemical systems but they are not included in this inventory except for alkaline hydrolysis. This inventory includes a few alternative technologies for sharps waste, such as needle cutters and needle melters which are also commercially available.

Treatment Approaches
There are four basic treatment approaches to consider: a centralized treatment system, decentralized (on-site) treatment, mobile treatment system, and treatment within clusters. The centralized treatment approach entails the use of one or more large-scale treatment units centralized treatment approach located at a central treatment plant. A centralized approach requires a good infrastructure of collection and transportation of untreated waste using specialized vehicles. If the central facility is not located adjacent to a landfill or dumpsite, regular waste transport vehicles will be needed to bring the treated waste to the landfill or dumpsite for final disposal as domestic waste. The centralized approach has the disadvantages of having to transport infectious waste through public roads and the added cost of transport, such as fuel costs. However, it has the advantage of the economy of scale and is the preferred approach in many industrialized countries. The opposite approach is a decentralized treatment system wherein all health facilities operate decentralized treatment their own on-site treatment unit. This approach would require that each facility prepare an adequate space for a treatment system including utilities, ventilation, and sewer drains. The location of the treatment area should be away from public areas but easily accessible to the health workers responsible for collecting infectious waste. Each facility would be required to maintain their equipment, document the treatment process, train workers on the proper operation and safety procedures, and provide workers with personal protection equipment. After the waste is treated, it can be mixed with domestic waste for pickup and disposal. The decentralized approach has the advantage of disinfecting infectious waste close to the source of generation. By avoiding the problem of transporting infectious waste through public roads, the potential for accidental release of infectious materials is reduced. A relatively new approach is a mobile treatment system In this approach, the treatment units treatment system. are mounted on trucks and are brought to different health facilities where they treat the waste. After the waste is treated, it becomes domestic waste for regular pickup and disposal. The mobile unit is then transported to the next health facility to treat their waste. Only a few vendors offer a mobile treatment system, and the capital and operating costs of mobile systems are high. A fourth approach is a combination of the centralized and decentralized system, namely, the treatment within clusters of health facilities. In this approach, a major hospital or health facility treatment is designated as a central hub for the treatment of infectious waste within an area or district. Infectious waste from the hospital itself plus waste from nearby hospitals, clinics and health centers are treated at the central hub. The central hub has to maintain one or more transport vehicles to collect waste from all the nearby health facilities. The treated waste then becomes part of the domestic waste of the major hospital and is picked up and disposed of as domestic waste. In a cluster treatment approach, a cost sharing arrangement could be set up between the major facility (the hub) and other hospitals and health facilities within the cluster.

Criteria for Selecting Technologies


Determining the best technology or combination of technologies depends on many general and site-specific factors as listed on the next page.

FOR PROPER DISPOSAL: A Global Inventory of Alternative Medical Waste Treatment Technologies

Treatment Approaches

Regulatory acceptance Microbial inactivation efficacy Occupational safety and health Environmental emissions and waste residues Throughput capacity Types of waste treated Cost Space requirements Utility and other installation requirements Reduction of waste volume and mass Noise and odor Ease of use Operator training Reliability Level of commercialization/ability to fill orders Technology manufacturer/vendor background Community and staff acceptance.

Regulatory Acceptance
The treatment technology should be approved or meet the requirements under existing national and local regulations.

Microbial Inactivation Efficacy


The treatment technology should meet the minimum requirements for disinfection in the country. Many countries use the STAATT criteria. A consortium of regulatory agencies called the State and Territorial Association on Alternative Treatment Technologies (STAATT) met in 1994, 1998, and 2005 to develop consensus criteria for medical waste treatment efficacy. The first STAATT meeting came up with the following definitions of the levels of microbial inactivation: Level I Level II Level III Inactivation of vegetative bacteria, fungi, and lipophilic viruses at a 6 Log10 reduction or greater Inactivation of vegetative bacteria, fungi, lipophilic/ hydrophilic viruses, parasites, and mycobacteria at a 6 Log10 reduction or greater Inactivation of vegetative bacteria, fungi, lipophilic/ hydrophilic viruses, parasites, and mycobacteria at a 6 Log10 reduction or greater; and inactivation of B. stearothermophilus spores and B. subtilis spores at a 4 Log10 reduction or greater Inactivation of vegetative bacteria, fungi, lipophilic/ hydrophilic viruses, parasites, and mycobacteria, and B. stearothermophilus spores at a 6 Log10 reduction or greater

Level IV

Level III disinfection has been the recommended minimum criteria by STAATT. The second STAATT meeting recommended the following representative biological indicators:
Mycobacteria (6 Log10 reduction) using Mycobacterium phlei or Mycobacterium bovis (BCG) Bacterial Spores (4 Log10 reduction) using Geobacillus stearothermophilus (formerly B. stearothermophilus) or Bacillus atrophaeus (formerly B. subtilis) 6
Health Care Without Harm 2006

Treatment Approaches

Some countries simply use Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores as the main indicator.

Occupational Safety and Health


When selecting a treatment technology, facilities should consider potential worker exposure to hot surfaces, chemicals released in the workspace as a result of inadequate segregation, sharps that may fall out during conveying, blood splatter and aerosolized pathogens from improper containment and handling of waste bags, etc. Workers should be provided with proper personal protection equipment and hepatitis vaccination. In the event of an equipment breakdown, the technology should have safety features to allow safe access to internal parts of the equipment. Some technologies have a way of injecting chemical disinfectants or steam on untreated waste and internal surfaces in case of repairs. Some technologies have safety interlocks that prevent workers from opening doors if the chamber is still under pressure. Autoclaves should be equipped with overpressure relief valves or emergency blow-out valves. Some large centralized autoclave systems have man-inside alarms to prevent closing doors if a person is inside the chamber.

Environmental Emissions and Waste Residues


Facilities should consider discharges to all possible environmental media and select technologies with the least impact on the environment. The treated waste should be safely disposed of in a regular landfill. If volume reduction is needed to render the waste unrecognizable and lessen the impact on landfills, a post-treatment shredder should be considered.

Throughput Capacity
The capacity of the technology should match the waste generation rates of the facility. Future anticipated growth and seasonal variations in waste generation should be taken into account. The throughput rates cited by technology vendors are approximate and actual throughput rates depend on waste densities and other factors.

Types of Waste Treated


Broad categories are used to describe the types of waste that a technology can handle, generally based on manufacturers recommendations. Laboratory solvents, waste pharmaceuticals, cytotoxic agents, mercury-containing devices, cleaning solutions, and other chemicals should be treated as hazardous chemical waste and should not be treated in alternative treatment technologies (except for those designed for these types of waste).

Cost
A comparison should be made to determine the most cost-effective option. As a general rule, the capital costs of standard autoclaves are the lowest, followed by advanced steam systems and microwave technologies. Capital cost estimates especially for large systems may include shipping, import duties, site preparation, installation, commissioning, project management, and regulatory fees. Operating costs include labor, utilities, supplies, maintenance, periodic validation testing, and landfill disposal costs.

Space Requirements
The space needed to operate the technology should fit the available space in the facility. That space should include allowances needed for opening waste entry doors, access to control panels, and enough space for moving bins. A typical layout of a large treatment facility includes: space for the treatment technology and ancillary equipment such as shredders and cart dumpers, sufficient traffic areas to move waste carts around, temporary storage section for untreated waste, temporary storage section for treated waste, area for cleaning carts and bins, room to store

Treatment Approaches

personal protection equipment, place to store disinfectants and clean-up materials, wash basin and eyewash station, drains, and heating/ventilation/cooling system.

Utility and Other Installation Requirements


Some technologies only need an electrical source; others may require steam, compressed air, natural gas, drains, ventilation, etc. Concrete pads may be needed for large units. Some vendors include the cost of installation in the equipment price. Optional ancillary equipment includes waste carts, tracks, conveyors, as well as shredders and compactors to reduce waste volume.

Reduction of Waste Volume and Mass


As already mentioned, many alternative technologies require a post-treatment shredder or compactor to reduce waste volume. Some advanced systems have internal shredders and posttreatment vacuum systems to remove moisture and reduce the weight of treated waste.

Noise and Odor


Reducing noise and noxious odors are important aspects of occupational health and community relations. Noise could be a problem with hammer mills and other types of shredders and grinders. Odors could be reduced by proper ventilation, use of filters, and odor-reducing agents.

Ease of Use
Automation minimizes operator errors while allowing efficient and easy control of the process, safety interlocks, diagnostics, remote monitoring, alarms, and automatic documentation to meet record keeping requirements. Most non-incineration technologies are designed for ease of use. Usually, the most labor-intensive task is introducing waste into the equipment. It is also a source of occupational injuries (e.g., back problems, blood splash, needle-stick injuries). Many technologies now include automatic feed assemblies such as cart lifters or bin dumpers to eliminate handling of waste bags by workers.

Operator Training
When selecting a technology, the level of required skills and training of the operator should be considered. Vendors of large waste treatment systems generally offer operator training when a new system is installed. Operator training should include: a basic understanding of the system, standard operating procedures, occupational safety and personal protection equipment, record keeping, identifying waste that should not be treated in the technology, recognizing technical problems, dealing with unusual conditions, periodic maintenance schedules, emergency procedures, and contingency plans. Facilities should document operator training and qualification.

Reliability
Reliability of equipment can be determined from past repair and maintenance records of facilities that have used the equipment. Some vendors provide client lists which may allow potential users to investigate the experiences of others. Many vendors of advanced technologies offer remote monitoring and diagnostics capabilities. High maintenance items include major moving parts such as shredders, grinders and feed systems. Facilities should check to see if vendors are well stocked with spare parts and staffed with technical people who can respond quickly to queries or provide urgent repair services.

Level of Commercialization/Ability to Fill Orders


Facilities should find out how quickly a vendor is able to fill orders, and request a list of clients and contact information. Technologies that are fully commercialized may have an extensive network of distributors and technical service centers that are able to respond quickly to urgent needs. 8
Health Care Without Harm 2006

Treatment Approaches

Technology Manufacturer/Vendor Background


Facilities should find out how long a technology manufacturer and/or vendor has been in business and if they are financially stable. It may also be helpful to know the backgrounds of key officers of the company, whether or not they have been cited for environmental or other violations in the past, and any financial or legal liabilities.

Community and Staff Acceptance


Educating the staff about the pros and cons of non-incineration technologies and involving them in the selection process are helpful in order to gain support for a new technology. For a centralized treatment facility, a program to inform the community and to allow them the opportunity to participate in the decision-making process and decide if the technology and treatment facility are appropriate for their community is essential.
