The
infectious material is temporarily held in a waste container(s) which in turn,
are emptied into an pre storage hopper via a charging system which is located
at the front of the MDU, The infectious waste is fed to the shredding system by
a feed arm where it is shredded. The shredded material is conveyed through a
microwave section and temperature holding section, respectively for
disinfection, with microwave of 2450MHz (±50MHz), temperature ≥95℃, with over
45minutes. The disinfected and unrecognizable (sharps) waste is then discharged
into large waste containers (or compaction units) by the discharging screw
conveyor. From there the material can be transported to a local municipal
landfill for disposal or to a refuse recycling plant.
What
did the Microwave Disinfection Unit (MDU) do to bacterias?
How is the
Microwave Disinfection Unit (MDU) disinfecting by microwave?
Microwave
disinfection is the result of microwave thermal effect and biological effect,
which can make microwave energy and bacteria directly interact, rapid
sterilization.
The
thermal effect of microwave energy: Under certain intensity microwave field,
the bacteria will be due to the absorption of polarized molecules can increase
the temperature of microwave, so that the protein deformation, loss of
biological activity. The thermal effect of microwave mainly plays the role of
rapid temperature sterilization.
Non-thermal
effects of microwave energy: High-frequency electric fields change the
polarized molecular structure, resulting in the loss of vitality or death of
proteins and physiologically active substances in the microbes, and the special
effects of conventional physical sterilization in the sterilization
/ADVANTAGES
MDU
series products are designed as an automatic operation system with minimal
operator operations, with the following characteristics:
Energy
saving: microwave
heating is uniform, no energy loss, high energy, strong penetration into the
object, instantaneous penetration into the object, good energy-saving effect,
take the model with a daily processing capacity of 5T/d as an example,
installed power Only 117 kilowatts.
Efficient
energy: The
temperature of action is low, and the heat loss is slow: If microwave and
ordinary heating produce the same amount of disinfection, the temperature of
the object will be significantly lower than that of ordinary heating. The waste
after microwave disinfection is non-toxic, without residue, and lightly
damaged.
Absolute
sterilization and disinfection:
Microwave can effectively sterilize all materials on all organisms with no
select. It has a broad spectrum of disinfection bacteria and can kill various
microorganisms and pathogens.
Spatial
convenience: Microwave
disinfection requires a small working environment and small area, does not
cause high temperature to the surrounding environment, and is clean and
hygienic.
Environmental
friendly: no
acid gas and dioxins and other pollutants are produced.
ü Integrated equipment
design, small footprint and low noise.
ü The equipment has a high
degree of automation, and only one person is required to operate a complete set
of equipment, saving labor costs.
ü Low energy consumption,
the whole set of equipment only needs electric drive, taking 5t per day as an
example, the total installed power is only 117 kilowatts.
ü The medical waste
treatment method is flexible. When there is medical waste to be processed at
any time, the equipment can be turned off after the treatment is completed,
which minimizes energy loss and personnel wages and saves treatment costs.
ü There are two types of
microwave disinfection equipment: fixed and mobile.
