autoclave residence time of not less than 30 minutes;

INDIA
(III) Medical waste shall not be considered properly treated unless the time,
temperature and pressure indicators indicate that the required time, temperature
and pressure were reached during the autoclave process. If for any reasons, time
temperature or pressure indicator indicates that the required temperature,
pressure or residence time was not reached, the entire load of medical waste
must be autoclaved again until the proper temperature, pressure and residence
time were achieved. The necessary documentary evidence shall be maintained
and submitted to regulatory authority by the operating agency of such repeated
sterilization procedure.
(IV) Recording of operational parameters
Each autoclave shall have graphic or computer recording devices, which will
automatically, and continuously monitor and record dates, time of day, load
identification number and operating parameters throughout the entire length of
the autoclave cycle. Any repeated sterilization cycles should be also
automatically reported.
(V) Validation test
Spore testing:
The autoclave should completely and consistently kill the approved biological
indicator at the maximum design capacity of each autoclave unit. Biological
indicator for autoclave shall be Bacillus stearothermophilus spores using vials or
spore Strips; with at least 1X104 spores per milliliter. Under no circumstances will
an autoclave have minimum operating parameters less than a residence time of
30 minutes, regardless of temperature and pressure, a temperature less than 121
C° or a pressure less than 15 psi.
(VI) Routine Test
Only spore testing will be acceptable. The spore vial should be placed at the
center of the bagged waste or as recommended for the entire duration of the
cycle and validated for 48 hours at the recommended CSSD department and
lorin the validation unit provided by manufacturer. Such validation reports must
necessarily be filed along with other records.
STANDARD FOR LIQUID WASTE: -
The effluent generated from the hospital should conform to the following limits

shred wet waste, especially after microwave/ autoclave/hydroclave.

INDIA
5. The shredder blade shall be of non-corrosive and hardened steel.
6. The shredder should be so designed and mounted so as not to generate high noise &
vibration.
7. If hopper lid or door of collection box is opened, the shredder should stop
automatically for safety of operator.
8. In case of shock loading (non-shredable material in the hopper), there should be a

mechanism to automatically stop the shredder to avoid any emergency/accident.
9. In case of overload or jamming, the shredder should have mechanism of reverse

motion of shaft to avoid any emergency/accident.
10.The motor shall be connected to the shredder shaft through a gear mechanism, to
ensure low rpm and safety.
11.The unit shall be suitably designed for operator safety, mechanical as well as
electrical.

washed properly and disinfected. It can be carried out in an open area but on an
impermeable surface and liquid effluent so generated shall be collected and treated in
an effluent treatment plant. The impermeable area shall be of appropriate size so as to
avoid spillage of liquid during washing.
• Effluent Treatment Plant:

INDIA
A suitable Effluent Treatment Plant shall be installed to ensure that liquid effluent
generated during the process of washing containers, vehicles, floors etc. is disposed

getting exposed
2 Due to generation of gases during composting, anaerobic digestion and undue
storage of organic waste etc.
3 Conversion of chemicals or recovery of chemicals.
B) The threshold odour values as specified under Environment (Protection) Act, 1986,
CPCB/MoEF guidelines and under the Rules framed under the Factory Act 1948
amended in 1987 will have to be complied with.
C) The BMWTSDF operator will have to make proper segregation and transportation of
such wastes. There is no easy method to eliminate the odour and hence control at
generation is essential. Oxidisation, camouflaging or dilution shall have to be
adopted. MPCB authorisation may give a number of additional conditions and the
same will have to be addressed for e.g. tree plantations of appropriate pollution
indicator & pollution tolerant species.

8.0 CRITERIA FOR SEGREGATION, COLLECTION & TRANSPORTATION

OF BIOMEDICAL WASTE
1. BACKGROUND:
Regulatory requirements for packaging, labeling, & transportation of Biomedical
wastes are given under Rule 6 of Biomedical Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules,
1998, as amended 2003, notified under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986. It is the
responsibility of the occupier or operator of a facility to ensure that Biomedical wastes
are packaged, based on the composition in a manner suitable for handling, storage &
transport. The labeling & packaging is required to be easily visible & be able to
withstand physical conditions & climatic factors.
Without prejudice to the provisions under the Rule 6 of BMW Rules, 1998, as amended
2003, & to further facilitate safe transportation of Biomedical wastes in compliance of
regulations, following guidelines are issued.
2. SEGREGATION AND COLLECTION:-

¾ The medical waste shall not be mixed with other wastes.
¾ The medical waste shall be segregated into containers/bags at the point of
generation in accordance with schedule II prior to its storage, transportation,
treatment and disposal.
¾ Respective colored bags should be kept in similar colored container (colored bags
shall no be kept directly in vehicle)
¾ Sharps shall be collected in puncture resistant containers.
¾ Temporary storage at healthcare unit shall be designated.
3. PACKAGING:
The containers when used for packaging of the Biomedical wastes should meet
the following requirements:
¾ Composition of the wastes- the container should be compatible with the
characteristics of the wastes e.g. acid-proof, leak proof etc.

INDIA
¾ It should be waterproof.
¾ It shall have air vents, where applicable, to ensure that the gas generated does not
expand & deform / explode the container.
¾ Container should be covered to minimum odor generation both at the point of
loading as well as during transportation.
¾ Container should be easy to handle during transportation & emptying.
¾ As far as possible manual handling of containers should be minimized. Use
mechanical handling of containers should be considered.
¾ Where 2-tier or 3-tier storage is envisaged the frame should have adequate strength
to hold the containers.
¾ The containers should be washable & re-usable
¾ Design of the container should be such that it can be safely accommodated on the
transport vehicle.
¾ Dissimilar wastes shall not be collected in the same container. Wastes shall be
segregated & packed separately. This is necessary to ensure each waste finds its way
to right disposal pathway.
¾ Occupier/ Biomedical waste generator shall not resort to the dilution of wastes
(predominantly organic wastes)
¾ Container shall be of mild steel with suitable corrosion resistance coating & roll on
roll off cover which may either be handled by articulated crane or by a hook lift
system works comfortably for a large variety of wastes. Other modes of packaging
like collection in 200 - L MS & plastic drums, card board cartons, PP & HDPE/LDPE
containers also works for variety of wastes. However, all such container should be
amenable to mechanical handling. The design & use of containers should be case
specific.
4. LABELING:
Labeling of containers is important for tracking the wastes from the point of
generation up to the final disposal. Following are the requirements for labeling:
¾ Each container should be labeled according to schedule III of the Biomedical Waste
Rules, 1998, as mended 2003.
¾ The label should contain the name & address of the waste management facility
where it is being sent for treatment & final disposal and also carry information
prescribed in schedule IV.
¾ Emergency contact phone numbers shall be prominently displayed. For example
respective Regional Officer of the State Pollution Control Board, Fire Station, Police
Station.

INDIA
¾ Label should include all relevant information as may required to facilitate safe and
proper handling of Biomedical wastes.
¾ It is in the interest of the operation to have named identification (on the ties or tapes)
of each generator to enable definitive pin-pointing in case of error, negligence,
whatever.
5. TRANSPORTATION:
Following are the requirements pertaining to the transportation of Biomedical,
wastes.
¾ Vehicle used for transportation shall be in accordance with the provisions under the
Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, and rules made there under.
