Hygienic assessment of pyrolytic incineration technologies for medical waste of the Russian Federation
The volume of the human accumulated wastes assumes their decontamination only by combustion at specialized plants. Federal Service for Consumer Protection and Human Welfare and environmental institutions should monitor the hygienic assessment to select and evaluate the technology options and laboratory control system organization in the construction of the centralized regional enterprises for thermal decontamination of medical waste.Aim of the study was to provide the hygienic assessments of the combustion technologies used in Saint - Petersburg for the decontamination medical waste and to propose a laboratory control program when using these technologies.Materials and methods. Pollutant emissions from plant combusting medical wastes, their inventories by instrumental, calculation methods and modeling results.Results. Based on the laboratory control data of emissions from waste incinerators and the emission of core components according to a feasibility of priority chemicals for inclusion in the program laboratory control and wildlife management system of regular monitoring in the Russian Federation.
