What Is the Function of a Medical Waste Bin?

The function of the medical waste bin is to collect and store medical waste. Medical waste includes various infectious wastes, medical devices, medicine bottles, syringes and other discarded items related to the medical process.

Prevent cross infection

Medical waste is highly infectious and contains various pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses. Placing medical waste garbage correctly into the medical waste bin can effectively isolate and control the spread of pathogens and reduce the risk of infectious diseases.

Protect the environment

Medical waste may contain harmful substances, such as toxic drug residues, radiation sources, etc. Dedicated medical waste bins can effectively collect these harmful wastes and ensure that they will not pollute the environment.

Easy to classify and treat

Medical waste needs to be specially treated to reduce harm to the environment and human body. Using a dedicated waste bin can easily separate and collect different types of medical waste for subsequent treatment and disposal.
