The Njoro Huduma Medical<\/a> Centre, a healthcare facility located in Nakuru County, Kenya, has been at the forefront of providing medical<\/a> services to the local community. However, the centre’s waste<\/a> incineration<\/a> activities have raised concerns about the potential impact on air quality and the environment. This article aims to analyze the hazardous emissions<\/a> resulting from the medical<\/a> centre’s waste<\/a> incineration<\/a> activities and their effects on the surrounding air quality.<\/p>\n

Introduction to Waste Incineration<\/h2>\n

Waste<\/a> incineration<\/a> is the process of burning<\/a> waste<\/a> materials at high temperatures, resulting in the reduction of waste<\/a> volume and the production of ash, gas<\/a>, and heat. The Njoro Huduma Medical<\/a> Centre uses waste<\/a> incineration<\/a> as a method of disposing of medical<\/a> waste<\/a>, including infectious and non-infectious waste<\/a>. However, this process can release hazardous emissions<\/a> into the atmosphere, posing a risk to human health<\/a> and the environment.<\/p>\n
