Hospital waste sterilization: Technical-economic comparison between radiation and microwaves treatment technologies; Sterilizzazione dei rifiuti ospedalieri: Confronto tecnico-economico tra le metodologie di trattamento mediante elettroni accelerati e mediante microonde

Abstract

Recent italian regulations establish that some fractions of hospital wastes, if submitted to a suitable sterilization treatment, can be assimilated to solid municipal refuses for landfilling finale disposal. Radiation technologies utilizing accelerated electrons or microwaves can be considered as the most effective and convenient techniques among emerging existing sterilization processes for hospital wastes treatment. A functional description and a technical-economic comparison of above mentioned treatments is presented, together with an up to date scenary of production and regulations of hospital wastes in Italy.
