Abstract: The proper management of medical waste is crucial to ensure the safety and well-being of both healthcare workers and the general public. Traditional methods of medical waste disposal, such as incineration and landfilling, have significant environmental and health risks. The creation of biogas from medical waste provides a sustainable and eco-friendly option for waste management and energy demands.
Biogas production from medical waste offers several benefits. Firstly, it provides a renewable source of energy, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. Second, it makes it easier to handle waste properly, reducing the hazards that medical waste poses to the environment and human health. A further way that biogas production may support the circular economy is by turning garbage into a useful resource. However, overcoming a number of obstacles is necessary for efficient biogas generation from medical waste. These include managing any possible pollutants or hazardous materials that may be present in medical waste, as well as the appropriate segregation and collection of medical waste. To further encourage and assist the development of biogas generation from medical waste, legislative frameworks, and regulatory measures are crucial. Recent improvements in biogas production technology, such as the use of sophisticated anaerobic digestion systems and the integration of pre-treatment techniques, have shown encouraging results in increasing the efficiency and dependability of the process. Additionally, cutting-edge methods have been investigated to improve biogas output and quality, such as co-digestion with other organic waste streams or the utilization of microbial consortia.
