| The MD-1000 is a three-stage, three chamber, medical waste reduction unit that produces a sterilized carbon residue.
It processes all types of medical and infectious wastes including packaging, plastics, anatomical waste, glass, and metal sharpes.
- Weighing and purging.
- Microwave reduction (Reverse Polymerization).
- Cooling and grinding.
Other commercially available ancillary equipment is used for process control, nitrogen production, environmental control and material handling.
The first chamber is sealed, weighs the waste load and sends the data to computer program controlling the process. Nitrogen is then used to purge the oxygen from all three chambers. The waste is moved by a conveyor into the heart of the system, the second chamber, where high energy microwaves are generated and directly transmitted to the waste load. In this chamber the waste is reduced by Reverse Polymerization to a sterilized carbon residue. The final stage is the cooling and grinding. The grinding further reduces the volume and processes the sterilized sharps present in the waste load. The sterilized carbon residue is then removed from the third chamber by air conveyance to commercially available containers, such as garbage bags, for safe disposal with other domestic or municipal waste.
