Tempico Rotoclave autoclave technology for healthcare waste management disposal | GW Butler

The unit is one of the most advanced technologies in the world achieving a LOG 106 reduction in microbiological spores (STAAT level IV) one hundred times the accepted international standard.

Improving on the accepted principal of steam sterilisation the rotating treatment vessel ensures that all clinical waste achieves the same high standard of treatment; there are no cold spots within the waste. The Tempico Rotoclave operates to the same standard as autoclaves used for decontamination of surgical instruments and the manufacture of pharmaceuticals.

A further feature of the operation is that unlike other technologies the Rotoclave does not need to shred the clinical waste prior to sterilisation to achieve this high treatment standard. Shredding only takes place once the clinical waste has been sterilised making this technology one of the safest and cleanest available.
