Setting new standards in medical waste processing

Using state-of-the-art autoclaving processes, heavily contaminated medical waste is shredded, sterilised and converted into harmless residual waste.

Decentralised

With the compact series, waste is treated directly at the point of origin, saving space and significantly reducing storage costs.

Certified

The RKI-certified process significantly exceeds WHO standards and achieves sterilisation reliability of SAL = 10-24 in just 10 minutes.

Safe

Plug-and-play installation, intuitive control and automatic operation at the highest level of sterility – supported by continuous software updates.

750kg

MediSteam can handle up to 750 kg of infectious waste per cycle, revolutionising waste management.

How the macroeconomic cycle works

The environmentally friendly technology combines mechanical and thermal sterilisation in a pressure-regulated process – free of harmful substances and safe to use.

Loading and setup

The contaminated waste is loaded from above into the feed hopper, which is sealed pressure-tight by the automated control system. This adjusts the sterilisation cycles and optimises the entire process.

Loading

Shredding and pre-treatment

The waste materials are mechanically shredded to reduce their volume and ensure effective surface sterilisation. This ensures that hazardous components are destroyed evenly.

Shredding

Fractionation and sterilisation

The air in the container is removed by vacuum, so that the chamber is optimally prepared for steam penetration. Sterilisation takes place at a constant temperature of 134 °C to safely kill all microorganisms and pathogens.

Sterilisation

Drying and pressure equalisation

After sterilisation, a vacuum is created again to prevent residual moisture and bacterial growth. The chamber pressure is then normalised for safe unloading.

Drying

Discharge and self-test

After the process is complete, the chamber is automatically discharged safely. The sterilised waste can be disposed of as household waste. Medi Steam then performs an automatic leak test for the next cycle.
