METHOD AND ASSEMBLY FOR STERILISING CONTAMINATED WASTE

摘要

A disposable assembly for collecting contaminated waste, including a heat-stable container (1) made, e.g., of metal and capable of withstanding the conditions, particularly the temperature conditions, under which its contents are sterilised. The assembly is suitable for household refuse and/or industrial waste and comprises a chamber provided with a sealable opening (2) through which the contaminated waste (3) is inserted, and a hot-melt plastic component (11) that is meltable under the sterilisation conditions, and particularly at the sterilisation temperature, said component being arranged inside the container (1) and having large enough mass for all the waste (3) to be embedded in the molten plastic. Said assembly further comprises a pervious cover (15) with a filter (55) sealing the opening (2) of the container (1).
