Full-service units for sterilizing laboratory wastewater
From the disposal of samples to the washdown of equipment, the sterilization of liquid waste is crucial in laboratories. The Effluent Decontamination System (EDS; photo) is a miniaturized wastewater-sterilizing plant for laboratory use. Using penetrative heat, the thermal EDS units neutralize all biologically active material, no matter the clarity of the wastewater. This technique of thermal sterilization provides a simple method of decontamination, requiring only the input of electricity. The Micro EDS model is capable of sterilizing 9 L of wastewater every 45 min, and can be connected into the effluent output of a wide range of appliances. Other models in the range include the Sink, which provides a fitted basin and automatic tap, and the Sink & Autoclave Combo, which allows instruments and solid waste to be sterilized simultaneously with the wastewater.
