Abstract

The paper presents the experimental results on the disposal of infected medical waste using low-temperature plasma. It is shown that infected medical waste can be processed using plasma technology. During plasma destruction of these materials, their biological disinfection with production of chemically inert, safe slag is guaranteed.
