Ini kutipan dari artikel Greenpeace.........

Medical Waste - useful waste into hazardous waste.

Only 10 percent or less of a typical hospital's waste stream is potentially
infectious, and that can be sterilised with heat, microwaves and other
non-burn disinfection technologies. The remaining waste is not infectious.
Most paper, plastic food waste and other hospital waste are similar to the
same waste coming from hotels, offices or restaurants, since hospitals serve
all of these functions. By burning medical waste in an incinerator the basic
biological problem of disinfecting infectious material - which can be dealt
with by various technologies - becomes a formidable chemical pollution
problem that is costly to manage and difficult to contain.
