OnSite Waste Technology is a firm located in
Newport Beach, California. We are committed to
lowering the risk, cost, and effects that medical
waste treatment and disposal leave on the
environment. Our current technology TE-5000 is a
processing unit of the size of a desktop but
transforms the waste, including syringes into
disinfected garbage. It lessens the CO2 influence
by lessening waste. Our mission is to reduce the
transportation of waste to any common location.
We are dedicated to presenting greener and
cleaner options for processing the disposal of
medical wastes. We also look forward to assisting
NGOs, first responders, and government agencies
to dispose of large quantities of sharps waste to
minimize the risk for community members, workers,
and others.

The Importance of Proper Biomedical Waste Disposal
In the U.S., the total amount of biomedical
wastes generated by one person in a single year
is approximately 13 lb! In the absence of a
proper biomedical waste disposal system, these
hazardous materials can prove to be harmful not
only for humans but also for the society at
large. It has the potential to spread diseases,
affect wildlife, impact the water supply, and
much more. That is the reason it is imperative to
implement an improved biomedical waste disposal
method, which can help in creating a safer and
healthier workplace. Here are the reasons why
every medical practitioner needs to dispose of
their biomedical waste properly

Medical Wastes Are Highly Dangerous Medical
wastes include many infectious materials like
blood, bodily fluids, bandages, disposable
equipment, human tissue, needles, syringes,
broken glass and blades, solvents and
disinfectants, and other wastes that are
generated in the medical setting. These things
are highly dangerous as well as infectious and
can cause contamination upon coming in contact
with humans. That is why they should be discarded
in the right method. Risky for the Staff Who
Handles Them Even before the medical wastes are
disposed of, the staff handling these materials
can be harmed by them. Proper care should be
taken in disposing of sharps or infectious
materials as they can cause harm to those who are
picking them up and transporting them. That is
also the reason why these things are not
discarded into the standard waste receptacles,
where they can be mistaken as general waste and
can be mishandled.

Risky for the Community as a Whole Lack of
effective disposal of biomedical wastes can pose
a great risk to the community as a whole.
Biomedical wastes that are transported
traditionally end up in landfills. It not only
exposes everyone in that area to an immediate
risk but also releases harmful substances into
the air, water, and land. Also, many of these
substances take years to break down, during which
more waste is added. It increases the potency of
the contamination manifold. Final
Words Biomedical wastes require careful
containment before it is collected and proper
disposal afterward. In case of any negligence, it
can lead to a major disaster, and rampant
diseases can break out. That is the reason it is
imperative to comply with the guidelines and laws
put forward by the CDC. Currently, there are
various methods of biomedical waste disposal
available in the market, implementing which can
ensure a healthier and safer environment.
