The medical waste generation rate ranged from 0.5 to 0.8 kg/bed day with a weighted average of 0.68 kg/bed day.
The segregated collection of various types of medical waste has been conducted properly in 73% of hospitals, but 20% of the hospitals still use inappropriate personnel for medical waste collection. Protective measures, the color coding system implementation, waste minimization management, and effective recycling practices were not sufficient in some cases.
93.3% of the hospitals had temporary storage areas. Some storage practices were not strictly conducted in accordance with the requirements of the regulations.
93.3% of the hospitals surveyed have provided training for staff, while only 20% of the hospitals had ongoing training and education.
This suggests that there is a lack of sufficient training andeducation programs for all hospital staff and that the training
and education mechanism in some hospitals is still not developed.
Centralized disposal of medical waste has been implemented in Nanjing based on incineration technology. The disposal cost of medical waste is about 580 US$/ton; the quantity of medical waste is low and does not allow for economies of scale. Storage management, worker training, disposal transaction mechanisms and emissions monitoring are still insufficient.
Survey respondents showed various levels of understanding of medical waste categories, risks, costs and disposal methods. There was insufficient and improper understanding of medical waste risks and management by many respondents, and 77% of respondents thought that the medical waste management was an important factor when selecting hospital services.
