Sterilwave - On-site treatment of Medical Waste
Sterilwave 440
Key features:
Helps prevent the spread of infections by treating bio-hazardous waste on-site
100% electric process, zero water consumption, no liquid effluent discharge
Waste volume reduction, reducing the need for transporting waste, reducing carbon emission and carbon footprint
Compliant with WHO's recommendations on treating infectious waste directly on hospital site, Sterilwave patented technology is a reliable plug & play solution designed for transforming infectious medical waste into inert waste.
All kinds of medical waste can be treated without the need of waste segregation. Medical waste with bags and containers, including sharps and related, can be loaded into the unit.
Rotative blades grind the wastes and the waste is heated and sterilized by microwave treatment up to 119 degrees Celsius. Efficiency of sterilization is up to 8log10 inactivation, compliant with all international standards.
The unit is 100% electric and does not require water. No liquid effluent discharged.
The compact, inert and dry waste makes circular economy possible.

China chooses the Sterilwave solution for on-site treatment of waste contaminated by the coronavirus
In February 2020, the Chinese Minister of Health confirmed the acquisition of 16 Sterilwave treatment stations for the main hospitals in the Wuhan region. These ultra-compact, innovative systems with proven efficiency in terms of viral inactivation make it possible to treat biomedical waste that has potentially been contaminated by the coronavirus (2019-nCoV) directly on site and consequently eliminate all risk of contamination outside the hospital. Thanks to Sterilwave solutions, the dangerous waste generated by hospitals is no longer taken by truck from the hospital to distant treatment sites, which significantly limits the risk of contagion.
