Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
(1) Biomedical waste shall be treated by
				steam, incineration, or an alternative process approved by the department as
				described in subsection
				 64E-16.007(4),
				F.A.C., prior to disposal. Treatment shall occur within 30 days of collection
				from the generator.

				treatment units shall subject loads of biomedical waste to sufficient
				temperature, pressure, and time to demonstrate a minimum Log 4 kill of
Bacillus stearothermophilus
spores placed at the center of the
				waste load, and shall be operated in accordance with the following:
(a) Before placing a steam treatment unit
				into service, operating parameters such as temperature, pressure, and treatment
				time shall be determined according to the following:
1. Test loads of biomedical waste which
				consist of the maximum weight and density of biomedical waste to be treated
				shall be prepared. Separate loads of red bags, sharps containers, boxes, and
				compacted waste shall be prepared if they are to be treated
				separately.
2. Prior to treatment,
Bacillus stearothermophilus
spores shall be placed at the
				bottom and top of each treatment container, at the front of each treatment
				container at a depth of approximately one-half of the distance between the top
				and bottom of the load, in the approximate center of each treatment container,
				and in the rear of each treatment container at a depth of approximately
				one-half of the distance between the top and bottom of the load.
3. If the operating parameters used during
				the treatment of the test loads demonstrate a minimum Log 4 kill of
Bacillus stearothermophilus
spores at all locations, the steam
				treatment unit shall operate under those parameters when placed into service.
				If the operating parameters fail to provide a minimum Log 4 kill of
Bacillus stearothermophilus
spores at all locations, treatment
				time, temperature, or pressure shall be increased and the tests must be
				repeated until a minimum Log 4 kill of
Bacillus
				stearothermophilus
spores is demonstrated at all locations. The steam
				treatment unit shall be operated under those parameters when placed into
				service. Tests shall be repeated and new parameters established if the type of
				biomedical waste to be treated is changed.
