A Powerful Technology for Managing Infectious Health Care Waste
Enhance your facility's compliance with government regulations on health care waste
Powered by the Tesalys STERIPLUS™ System
The Tesalys medical waste autoclaves feature a disinfection pre-treatment solution for biohazardous waste, according to the French standard NF X30-503-1.
It is a sterilizer (autoclave) with an integrated shredder, which first shreds the waste before performing an autoclave cycle with steam at 135 °C/275 °F.
Once treated with STERIPLUS™, biohazardous waste is transformed into waste similar to municipal solid waste that can be destroyed like any other inert industrial waste or household waste.
Particular thought was given to green design concepts: apart from treating the air and effluents produced by the equipment, the system consumes very little electricity and water, thanks to heat-recovery mechanisms.
