Medical Clinic Incinerator in Gressier, Haiti
In 2013, at a new location, Haiti Health Ministries opened its beautiful, new, earthquake and hurricane-resistant clinic. Their dedicated staff of Haitian and expatriate doctors, nurse practitioners, prenatal care consultants, and wound care consultants sees a growing number of patients each year. Patients seek treatment for a wide range of conditions, from malaria and cholera to diabetes, accident injuries, and prenatal care. The clinic never turns away a patient who is unable to pay. The clinic operates a pharmacy and provides patient care, patient education, laboratory services, sonography, radiology, and minor surgery. In 2018, they cared for 150 – 200 patients per day; up 35 percent from 2017.
Safe, cost-effective medical waste disposal was important, so the ministry selected a dependable Firelake A200 LP (propane) incinerator system. It will easily handle the ministry’s growing waste requirements for many years as their clinic sees more and more patients.
- Effective. In less than 12 hours, the incinerator reduces 200 pounds of medical waste, including hazardous medical waste, to less than 5 pounds of sterile, inert ash.
- Easy to operate. Load the incinerator, set the burn time, and walk away. The incinerator shuts off automatically.
- Easy to load and unload. The counter-balanced fill door is easy to open and close. After incineration, sterile ash is easy to remove through a lower door.
- Lowest operating costs in the industry. Insulated, refractory-lined chambers and stacks, as well as its recirculating flue gases, make the incinerator very energy efficient. Maintenance costs are negligible.
