Microwave decomposition machine

摘要

This invention describes a microwave decomposition machine and method to decompose and sterilize medical waste material using high energy density microwaves, 60 Kilowatts or greater. The medical waste is well stirred and there is no damage of the cavity due to arcing during the process. The decomposition process takes place in a sealed oxygen free atmosphere of 1.0% or less oxygen thereby preventing the discharge of any medical waste gases into the atmosphere. The microwave decomposition machine can be mounted on a vehicle for easy transport to the source of the medical waste material.
