Title: Hospital waste shredder test series at the DONLEE Pilot Test Facility. Final report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10124996· OSTI ID:10124996

This report describes the coal firing and coal and noninfectious hospital waste co-firing testing and emissions rates for the tests conducted at the DONLEE pilot plant facility during mid-December 1991 through early March 1992. The emissions obtained during these tests are in turn used to predict the emission rates for the proof-of-concept facility that is to be built at the Lebanon Veterans Affairs Medical Center. In addition, the reliability and performance of the waste shredding/feeding system were evaluated from this testing.
