2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/ BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The concern about disposal of infectious waste generated by the hospitals is

increasing rapidly due to the fear of the spread of viruses such as Acquired
Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and Hepatitis B. These waste (bio-medical
waste generated from health care establishments) present a high risk of causing
potential damage to the human health and the environment by way of spreading.
To prevent the spread of such infectious waste that finds its genesis in bio-
medical waste (from hospitals, clinics, laboratories, dispensaries etc.) a scientific
approach is required. From the beginning it is essential that professionally
trained personnel should handle the waste.

Keeping in view the difficulties faced by private Hospitals, Nursing Homes and
Clinics that cannot make their own arrangements due to high cost involved in
Treatment facilities, there was need for centralized system for treatment. Later
on, in September 2003, the Central Pollution Control Board had made the
guidelines for “Common bio-Medical Waste Treatment Facility” in order to
discourage the individual incineration facility by health care establishments and
strengthening CBWTF system.

It is roughly estimated that about 0.75 to 1.50 kg/bed/day of solid waste are
generated from health care institutions of which 15 to 20% are infectious
biomedical waste.
The present proposal is to utilize 3058.12 Sq meter of land for setting up of
Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility at Plot No BN-102,103 &104,MG Road
Indl. Area,Phase-3,Hapur,Uttar Pradesh 201015

4. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF NATURE OF THE PROJECT

A Common Bio-medical Waste Treatment Facility (CBWTF) is a set up where

bio-medical waste, generated from a number of healthcare units, is suitably
treated to reduce adverse effects that this waste may pose. The treated waste
may finally be sent for disposal in a secured landfill or for recycling purposes.

Proposed project of setting up of the Common Bio-medical Waste Treatment

Facility includes Incinerator, Autoclave, Shredder, Storage ,Recycling Unit and
Effluent Treatment Facility.

5. NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY

AND STATE

Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change (MoEFCC), Govt. of India

has notified the Bio-Medical Waste (Management & Handling) Rules, 1998. In
accordance to the rule, every occupier of a Health Care Establishment (HCE)
shall either set up requisite bio-medical waste treatment facilities on site or
ensure requisite treatment of the bio-medical waste at an approved Common
Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility. No untreated bio-medical waste shall be
kept stored beyond a period of 48 hours.

Keeping in view the difficulties faced by private Hospitals, Nursing Homes and
Clinics that cannot make their own arrangements due to high cost involved in
Treatment facilities, there was need for centralized system for treatment. Most of
the tribal villages have very poor transportation and communication
infrastructure. Most of the hospitals do not have adequate arrangement for
disposal of the hospital waste.

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS

9.1 Components of Integrated Bio-Medical Waste Management
An integrated waste management system for bio-medical waste must look into
various stages of the process. These key components can be broadly classified
into the following:

Waste Segregation: Waste segregation will reduce the load of bio-medical waste
from about 1-2kgs/bed-day to about 0.2kgs/bed-day and this also minimize
the environmental impacts associated with further processing.
Waste will have to be segregated into domestic refuse, hazardous waste and
infectious waste separately.
Further the infectious waste will have to be segregated into plastics, metals,
and other infectious waste generated. Segregation is done effectively if
performed at source. CPCB has issued clear guidelines for colour coded
segregation.

Waste Collection and Transport: Facility / unit have to ensure that there are
no environmental or human health impacts while collecting & transporting Bio-
Medical waste.

Treatment/ Storage/ Disposal: Treatment/ Storage and disposal of the waste

have various options available.
Waste treatment can be effectively performed by two operations running parallel
to each other:
A Disinfecting Unit
A Disinfecting unit is one that will effectively kill all the microorganisms.
Autoclaving, Microwaving, Hydroclaving and Chemical disinfection processes
are the most prevalent technologies used for disinfection of pathogens from the
bio-medical waste.
Environ Waste Connections LLP
 Proposed Common Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility at
MG Road Indl. Area,Hapur, Uttar Pradesh.

Autoclave used for the purpose of bio-medical waste management is expected

to be dedicated for the purpose and is expected to operate under standards
specified by CPCB. Medical Waste shall not be considered treated unless the
time, temperature and pressure indicated in the standards are reached (for eg.
1210 C, 15 psi for 1 hour for normal autoclave).
Microwave and Hydroclave disinfection units are similar in application to that
of an autoclave. Microwave technology cannot be applied for cytotoxins,
hazardous or radioactive waste, contaminated animal carcasses, body parts
and large metal items. Microwave should completely and consistently kill the
bacteria and other microorganisms.
Chemical disinfection is a process of disinfection wherein chemical
disinfectants like chlorine and its derivatives or their disinfectants are used in
a closed process to attain complete killing of the pathogens.

A Destruction Unit
A Destruction unit is one that will completely destroy the waste into safe end
products. High temperature incinerators are used to achieve this. Incineration
is a process by which combustible materials are burnt, producing combustion
gases and non-combustible residue and ash. The combustible gases are vented
into the air after treatment through air pollution control devices. Ash and other
non-combustible residue remain after the destruction/ incineration process is
disposed off securely into a landfill site.

Waste Storage
Waste Storage is an applicable option for effective storage of certain hazardous
waste like mercury and cytotoxins that do not have a cost-effective treatment
technology as yet. Waste Disposal is primary performed by deep burial of waste
into secure landfills.

Waste disposal
Waste disposal is an option which remains to exist irrespective of the treatment
options, in case of disinfection waste material post-disinfection needs to be land
filled and in case of incineration the non-combustible residue and ash needs to
be disposed off into a landfill and thus landfill remains to be an integral part of
an integrated bio-medical waste management facility including recycalable
Plastic & Glass Waste after disinfection shall be recycled inside the premises
for final disposal such as Fuel recovery or Plastic & Glass Product for further
re-use in various Industry.

9.3 Treatment Technology

Incineration
This is a high temperature thermal process employing combustion of the waste
under controlled condition for converting it into inert material and gases.
Incinerators can be oil fired or electrically powered or a combination of both.
Broadly, three types of incinerators are used for biomedical waste: multiple
hearth type, rotary kiln and controlled air types. All the types have primary and
secondary combustion chambers to ensure optimal combustion. These are
refractory lined.
In the multiple hearth incinerators, solid phase combustion takes place in the
primary chamber whereas the secondary chamber is for gas phase combustion.
These are referred to as excess air incinerators because excess air is present in
both the chambers.
Thus the waste is incinerated in two stages i.e. the primary chamber and the
secondary combustion chamber which are positioned adjacent to each other.
The flue gases then passes through the high pressure drop Venturi Scrubber,
droplet separator and are let out to atmosphere via ID fan and chimney. The
Primary Combustion Chamber operates under near pyrolytic condition where
the wastes are decomposed & all volatiles are released. The substrate remaining
gets converted into sterile ash. The volatiles released from the Primary
Combustion Chamber are then completely burnt in the Secondary
Combustion Chamber under high temperature & excess air.

Air Pollution Control Device (APCD)

The gases after being burnt at 1050oC shall be run into a ventury scrubber
followed by a flooded scrubber with water quenching arrangement. The
scrubber shall be an alkaline scrubber to neutralise the gases and ensure
trapping of any pollutants escaping into the environment. The purpose of water
quenching is to reduce the temperature of the gases which are at high
temperature. The clean gases are let out into the environment. The scrubbed
water shall be collected into a sump, where the water is neutralised, and then
sent into a cooling tower from where the water is recirculated into the scrubber
after cleaning them of their particulates by way of pressure sand filter and
activated carbon filter. The system is thus a zero discharge system in terms of
water discharges and is pollution free.

Autoclave
An autoclave is a specialized piece of equipment designed to deliver 1210 C
temperature under 15 psi pressures to a chamber, with the goal of
decontaminating or sterilizing the contents of the chamber. Decontamination is
the reduction of contamination to a level where it is no longer a hazard to people
or the environment.
EWC intends to establish an autoclave with above principle. To ensure safety
and quality control, all bio-hazardous materials and items contaminated with
potentially infectious agents should be decontaminated

 Proposed Common Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility at
MG Road Indl. Area, Hapur , Uttar Pradesh.

before use or disposal. Such items include, but are not limited to: culture media,
surgical instruments, laboratory equipment, glassware, and biomedical waste
including sharps.

Shredder
Shredding is a process by which waste are de-shaped or cut into smaller pieces
so as to make the waste unrecognizable. Shredder has non- corrosive sharp
blades capable for shredding of plastic waste, sharps, bottles, needles, tubing’s,
and other general waste. The low speed two shaft systems is effective for
shredding hard and solid waste.
Environ intends to establish a Shredder, thus rendering the waste free from
infection. The dis-infected waste shall then be segregated into HDPE, PP,
rubber, latex, glass and metal. The segregated materials shall then be shredded
completing the process of dis-infection and ensuring non-recycling of the waste
materials for medical/ food grade purposes.
Recycling Facility

Recyling is a process by which Non-infectious Recyclable Waste such as Plastic

& Glass after disinection through autoclave & shredding or chemical
disinfection as per Bio-Medical Waste Managemnent Rules,2016 shall be
converted into Fuel or Plastic Product and Shredded Glass respectively for
Various Plastic and Glass Moulding Industries by using the Technologies such
as Pyrolysis Plastic to Fuel Conversion or Plastic Extrusion &
Shredder/Grinder/Glass Cutter into Shredded /Grindded Glass.

a minimum of three pre-vacuum pulses to purge the autoclave of all air.
The air removed during the pre-vacuum, cycle should be decontaminated
by means of HEPA and activated carbon filtration, steam treatment, or
any other method to prevent release of pathogen.
The waste shall be subjected to the following:

2. Temperature of not less than 121°C and pressure of 15 psi per an

autoclave residence time of not less than 45 minutes; or

3. Temperature of not less than 135°C and a pressure of 31 psi for an

autoclave residence time of not less than 30 minutes;

4. Medical waste shall not be considered as properly treated unless the time,
temperature and pressure indicators indicate that the required time,
temperature and pressure were reached during the autoclave process. If
for any reasons, time temperature or pressure indicator indicates that the
required temperature, pressure or residence time was not reached, the
entire load of medical waste must be autoclaved again until the proper
temperature, pressure and residence time were achieved.
5. Recording of operational parameters: Each autoclave shall have

graphic or computer recording devices which will automatically and

continuously monitor and record dates, time of day, load identification
number and operating parameters throughout the entire length of the
autoclave cycle.

6. Validation test for autoclave: The validation test shall use four
biological indicator strips, one shall be used as a control and left at room
temperature, and three shall be placed in the approximate center of three
containers with the waste. Personal protective equipment
(gloves, face mask and coveralls) shall be used when opening containers
for the purpose of placing the biological indicators. At least one of the
containers with a biological indicator should be placed in the most
difficult location for steam to penetrate, generally the bottom center of the
waste pile. The occupier or operator shall conduct this test three
consecutive times to define the minimum operating conditions. The
temperature, pressure and residence time at which all biological indicator
vials or strips for three consecutive tests show complete inactivation of
the spores shall define the minimum operating conditions for the
autoclave. After determining the minimum temperature, pressure and
residence time, the occupier or operator of a common biomedical waste
treatment facility shall conduct this test once in three months and records
in this regard shall be maintained.

7. Routine Test: A chemical indicator strip or tape that changes colour

when a certain temperature is reached can be used to verify that a specific
temperature has been achieved. It may be necessary to use more than
one strip over the waste package at different locations to ensure that the
inner content of the package has been adequately autoclaved. Common
bio medical waste treatment facility shall conduct this test during
autoclaving of each batch and records in this regard shall be maintained.

8. Spore testing: The autoclave should completely and consistently kill the
approved biological indicator at the maximum design capacity of each
autoclave unit. Biological indicator for autoclave shall be Geobacillus
stearothermophilus spores using vials or spore Strips; with at least 1X106
spores. Under no circumstances will an autoclave have minimum
operating parameters less than a residence time of 30 minutes, a
temperature less than 121o C or a pressure less than 15 psi. The occupier
or operator of a common bio medical waste treatment and disposal facility
shall conduct this test at least once in every week and records in this
regard shall be maintained.

biological indicator Geobacillus Stearothermophillus or Bacillus
Atropheausspoers using vials with at least log10 6 spores per ml. The test
shall be carried out once in three months

(ii) Routine test

A chemical indicator strip or tape that changes colour when a certain

temperature is reached can be used to verify that a specific temperature has
been achieved. It may be necessary to use more than one strip over the waste
to ensure that the inner content of the sharps has been adequately disinfected.
This test shall be performed once in week and records in this regard shall be
maintained.
