COVID-19 Medical Waste Management Expert
COVID-19 is treated or decontaminated to reduce the viral load in the waste and to render the by-products safe for further handling and disposal. Treatment processes are permitted under each state’s medical waste statutes and regulations and treatment methods may include autoclaving, incineration, chemical disinfection, grinding/ shredding/disinfection methods, and energy-based technologies (e.g., microwave or radiowave treatments).
