Compact on-site treatment
Sterilwave 50

A compact, fully electric solution for laboratories, clinics and smaller healthcare facilities that want to treat infectious waste close to where it is generated.
Up to 100 L or approximately 10 kg per hour*
Small footprint, direct control
The Sterilwave 50 combines shredding and microwave treatment in one 50-litre vessel. It requires no steam pressure, chemicals or process water and produces no liquid effluent during treatment.
Compact installation
Designed for sites where both waste volume and available floor space are limited.
Simple workflow
Manual loading and unloading with the complete treatment process in one vessel.
Controlled treatment
Microwave heating supports microbial inactivation of up to 6 log10 in a validated cycle.

Is the Sterilwave 50 the right size?
Rated capacity alone does not determine the best choice. Waste composition, daily peaks, staffing, available utilities and local rules also matter. We validate these factors before recommending a configuration.
