The Bio-Oxidizer® system is an innovative medical waste processing technology that safely disposes of a wide range of medical waste.


Engineered to handle all categories of medical waste, including sharps, the Bio-Oxidizer® system processes between 100 and 125 pounds per hour and destroys 100% of pathogens, viruses and bacteria and reduces waste mass by 95% and volume by 99%.

Sterile, Inorganic Residue


Handles the complete range of medical waste Maximum reduction in weight and volume 100% destruction of bacteria, viruses and pathogens.

• Safe for the environment
• Enhanced employee safety
• Fully automated loading and record keeping
• Integral heat exchanger for energy recovery
• Innovative control technology and interface
• Significant liability advantages over competition

  The principle of operation is the electro-pyrolysis of organics followed by two phases of electro-oxidation. The Bio-Oxidizer® system electrically heats the organic solids and liquids, turning them into vapor, and then oxidizes the vapors in two oxidizers. The remaining residue, which is typically less than 5% of the original weight and volume, is sterile, inert, and may be discarded as municipal waste in most instances or possibly recycled as road aggregate, for example. The resulting air emissions are made up of carbon dioxide, water vapor and trace elements.

Medical waste is placed in boxes and loaded on the conveyor, minimizing operator contact..
