Biosafe Life Sciences effluent decontamination systems

Biosafe Life Sciences has released effluent decontamination systems (EDSs) to treat laboratory wastewater/effluent produced within biocontainment boundaries. EDSs are recommended and/or required by law for facilities classified as Bio-safety Level 3 and Level 4 (PC 3 and 4 as defined in AS/NZS 2243.3-2010).

The systems use a combination of heat and pressure to ensure that any potentially dangerous microbiological agents in the effluent are destroyed before release to the public drains. They can operate as a continuous-batch process.

The company has worked with alkaline hydrolysis used in converting potential infectious waste tissue into sterile effluent and also produce stand-alone EDSs for other effluent streams from life science facilities.

A wide selection of configurations and capacities is available and designed to treat thousands of gallons per day. The systems can be sized for any facility from a single laboratory room to a large multiuser facility. A ‘prion cycle’ feature can also be incorporated, using the alkaline hydrolysis technology, for the safe disposal of potentially TSE infected effluent.
