How does pyrolysis work?

The company plans to dispose of medical waste through a process known as pyrolysis — which indirectly heats the waste in the absence of oxygen. This way, rather than burning the waste, it would be evaporated into syngas.

Is MedRecycler safe?

MedRecycler claims this process is safe, though some concerned community members said they don’t feel comfortable with this facility being so close to a local daycare facility. If MedRecycler receives the green light to move forward, the facility will be able treat up to 70 tons of regulated medical waste per day.
