| 520 | _aUpgrading of hospital waste management was done in Children's Hospital by separating solid waste into 3 groups; general waste, infectious waste and hazardous waste. This hospital had 538 beds with bed occupancy rate (BOR) 61.52% could produce general and infectious waste by 585 and 60 kg./day, respectively. The rate of generation of general and infectious waste were 1.77 and 0.18 kg./bed-day, respectively. General waste had physical characteristic consisted of total combustible and non-combustible by 89.13 and 10.87 percent, respectively and had bulk density of 0.15 kg/I. By solid waste auditing it was found that waste office paper A4 size, glass container and plastic container have potentially to be recycled by 100% but could reduce the weight and volume of general waste by 56.92 kg./day and 9.77%, respectively. On the other hand if the reduction program to reduce newspaper, magazine, craft paper, boxes, bottle of drinking water and oil and plastic cups is provided by segregating at sources of generation, it was estimated to reduce the weight and volume of general waste by 123 kg./day and 21.11 %, respectively. The hospital has benefits not only to reduce the weight, volume of waste and selling recycle potential waste that can make the money about 5,535 Bahts/month but also to increase quality of life, which can not be quantified in monetary terms. It was found that general and infectious waste were not segregated properly. In addition, the collectors were also not equipped with personal protection equipment. Therefore, an integrated waste management programs should include inoculating person at risk with hepatitis and tetanus vaccine, providing personal protection equipment for the collectors dealing with infectious waste, compiling a master listing of hazardous waste type and initiating training program and reduction program. These steps could be successfully implemented by involving the top manager. | ||
