The Problem of Medical Waste
Medical waste, including disposable syringes, gloves, and other infectious materials, poses a significant threat to public health and the environment. If not disposed of properly, it can lead to the spread of diseases, contamination of water sources, and harm to wildlife.

A Solution Takes Shape
The waste incinerator at Nyabangi Dispensary is designed to safely and efficiently dispose of medical waste, reducing the risk of infection and environmental pollution. The incinerator uses a controlled combustion process to break down waste into harmless ash, which can then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill.
