- Incineration Services:-
The Incinerator Plant which has a daily incineration capacity of around 20 tons / unit, incinerating the waste at temperatures of 1000 Degrees Celsius and the resultant gases treated at 1400 Degrees Celsius to avoid any harmful air emissions. This plant is capable to incinerate waste and converting it into ash which is safely disposed at a designated Landfill Site. D-TECH WASTE SOLUTIONS continued to operate the units in warranty under KMC supervision. D-TECH WASTE SOLUTIONS triumph the contract for the Collection, Transportation and Disposal of Pharmaceutical Waste under supervision with the City District Government of Karachi.
D-TECH WASTE SOLUTIONS now serves to almost 150 Healthcare Unitsall across Karachi and several Pharmaceutical Companies for Incineration of Biotic Wastes and Expired Medicines and Raw Materials etc., from leading Pharmaceutical Industries in Pakistan.
This services are divided inti two categories. This can be describe in below:-
- Hazardous Waste
- Non-Hazarodus Waste
- Hazardous Waste Material:
Hazardous wastes are discarded materials with properties that make them potentially harmful to human health or the environment. Hazardous wastes can include things such as chemicals, heavy metals, or substances generated as byproducts during commercial manufacturing processes, as well as discarded household products like paint thinners, cleaning fluids, and old batteries. Hazardous wastes can be in the form of liquids, solids, contained gases, or sludges. Much of this hazardous material is stored in landfills or other containment areas. If these hazardous waste sites are not properly designed or managed, their contents can be released into the surrounding environment, posing a threat to public health. To address this issue, the NIEHS has created a Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program (HWWTP) to support the safety and health of workers engaged in activities related to hazardous waste and chemical emergency response.
- Non – Hazardous Waste Material:
Non – Hazardous waste means waste that is not classified as hazardous waste such as commercial / industrial waste.
1) Industrial Waste:
According to the Texas Environmental Almanac, waste that falls into neither the hazardous or municipal categories qualifies as nonhazardous industrial waste. Texas has defined three nonhazardous classes. Class 1 wastes have slight hazardous properties or content, but not enough to be an acute problem. Class 2 wastes include food waste, paper, cardboard and depleted aerosol cans. Inert, solid materials such as glass and rock make up Class 3.
2) Medical Waste:
According to a pamphlet from Idaho State University, medical waste—including used syringes, bandages and other items contaminated with body fluids—don’t meet the technical definition of hazardous waste. A separate distinction, called potentially infectious medical waste (PIMW), covers these kinds of materials. Specially licensed companies pick up PIMW from hospitals and clinics and reduce it to sterile waste.
3) Lab Waste:
University and commercial laboratories produce a wide range of nonhazardous chemical wastes, many of which they can simply rinse down the drain. These include photographic film developers, non-heavy-metal acids having a pH over 5.5 and many organic compounds from biological sources.
