Abstract

Medical waste is a kind of special waste with great harm. Since the 1950s, the treatment of medical waste has attracted widespread attention from all over the world. At present, scholars at home and abroad are increasingly rich in research on medical waste treatment technology and have achieved certain research results. This article comprehensively compares and analyzes the technical influencing parameters, advantages and disadvantages of incineration treatment, pressure steam sterilization treatment, chemical treatment, microwave treatment, plasma treatment and other medical waste treatment methods, and emphasizes that high-temperature pyrolysis incineration treatment technology has reduced weight and is harmless. This is the current direction of domestic medical waste treatment research and development.
