The first sterilization center for hospital waste at infectious risk (RPBI) has started up at the Centro Medico Nacional “La Raza” in Mexico.
This is the largest On Site installation at IMSS (Instituto Mexicano de Seguro Social) which has adopted the Newster System manufacturing Frictional Heat Treatment (FHT) technology after the excellent experience made in Mexico in the field of hazardous waste sterilization.
The sterilization plant was built by Lodeit de Mexico, a distributor of Newster System products for the Mexican United States and has a current treatment capacity for approximately 1,500 kg of infectious waste per day, with prospects for implementation.
The CEO of Lodeit de Mexico, Lic. José Manuel Lozano Woolrich, visited the Newster System company in Italy on the occasion of the Ecomondo fair to define the development lines of the plant based on the expected technological expansion and evolution to the latest generation: Industrial 4.0. so that the IMSS will obtains implementation towards the most modern plants in the world in this specific sector.
It is currently the largest “inSight” treatment plant built to date in the American continent and constitutes the ideal starting point for the development of hospital risk management according to the most advanced lines of best practice.
Our health-care waste (HCW) sterilizer processes potentially infectious medical solid waste in a blade-equipped vessel, under at slightly negative pressure. Special sensors detect real-time temperature inside the vessel. When the temperature reaches 150°C, the mass is automatically sprinkled with tap water. The shredded waste is cooled down to 95°C. The cycle is over and the dehydrated product is unloaded automatically. Each cycle lasts approximately 30-40 minutes depending on the quantity of liquids inside the waste.
Our sterilization efficacy: Frictional Heat treatment reaches a peak temperature of 150°C during the cycle guaranteeing STAATT level IV with a 6 Log10 reduction.
The waste after treatment is a residue with the following characteristics:
• Dry
• Un-recognizable
• Reduced in volume / weight
• Sterilized
• Odorless
