2. Onsite Waste Technologies OnSite Waste Technology is a firm located in Newport Beach, California. We are committed to lowering the risk, cost, and effects that medical waste treatment and disposal leave on the environment. Our current technology TE-5000 is a processing unit of the size of a desktop but transforms the waste, including syringes into disinfected garbage. It lessens the CO2 influence by lessening waste. Our mission is to reduce the transportation of waste to any common location. We are dedicated to presenting greener and cleaner options for processing the disposal of medical wastes. We also look forward to assisting NGOs, first responders, and government agencies to dispose of large quantities of sharps waste to minimize the risk for community members, workers, and others.

3. Steps to Handle Medical Waste Disposal Process As the name says, medical waste is usually every waste material that is generated at health care facilities, medical research facilities, laboratories, etc. It is also necessary to note that nowadays even households produce clinical waste as does any organization that handles or works with needles or syringes. Irrespective of the way anyone describes medical waste, the disposal, management, and medical waste treatment must not be taken lightly. The safest and the most secure way to protect the environment from getting polluted and exposed to any risk is finding the services for proper medical waste disposal and treatment. The companies providing these services have the appropriate knowledge of all the waste materials' categorization and the resources required to handle and treat the waste efficiently. To understand the process more accurately, let's read on to know more about handling the medical waste disposal process.

4. Waste Collection and Segregation This is considered with every type of waste, the best way to manage it is to start from its generation. To collect the waste appropriately, one must be familiar with what to collect and where to collect, exactly. This means collecting waste in particular and designated containers. These containers are mostly color-coded for proper biomedical waste segregation. For instance, red containers are for collecting sharps waste(e.g.: needles, blades, razors, etc.), red containers with a biohazard symbol are for collecting infectious waste collection(e.g.: blood, IV tubing, etc.), yellow containers are for collecting trace chemotherapy waste(e.g.: empty vials, gloves, etc.), black containers are for collecting hazardous waste(e.g.: P-listed drugs, bulk chemo, etc.), blue containers are for collecting pharmaceutical waste (e.g.: pills, antibiotics, etc.), and yellow shielded containers with a radioactive symbol are for collecting radioactive waste collection (i.e. anything contaminated by radiotherapy)

5. Waste Disposal and Treatment One thing to keep in mind is that the company that generated the medical waste can be held responsible for any repercussions it may cause until it is properly and safely disposed of. Hence, it is highly important to select a professional medical waste removal company. Besides the incineration method (usually used for the disposal of pathological and pharmaceutical waste), there are other medical waste disposal methods such as autoclaving or using a medical waste shredder. There are many companies that provide on-site equipment, for better hazardous medical waste treatment, which merges the benefits of steam sterilization and shredding.
