Trinova Medical Waste Solutions, LLC Launches First Patented Green Solution for Medical Waste Management

    CORONA, CA, February 25, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Trinova Medical Waste Solutions, LLC, an on-site medical waste solutions provider, unveiled today the first patented environmentally-friendly solution for the treatment, management and disposal of regulated medical waste (RMW). The TrinovaMed Monarch Green Machine converts biohazardous materials including surgical instruments and waste generated by hospitals and medical facilities into a sanitized material that is safe for the environment and employees. This new green technology is poised to revolutionize the way medical waste is managed and is the only solution of its kind available.

"Current regulated medical waste management options, such as incineration and steam sterilization, are costly and pose a risk to the environment," said Carlo Moyano, executive committee member of Trinova Medical Waste Solutions. "New technologies needed to be developed to offer a more earth-friendly and cost-effective solution to the medical industry."

The TrinovaMed Monarch Green Machine sanitizes medical waste by using proprietary dual-action green technology. The final product is a benign "confetti" like material that is approved for landfill disposal along with regular solid waste.

The TrinovaMed medical waste management solution is approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as well as the California Department of Public Health, Los Angeles County Water District, California Air Quality Management District and Riverside County Solid Waste Division. Beyond these approvals, the TrinovaMed solution is appealing because:

-It's Green: the low carbon footprint reduces transportation fuel consumption and the resulting air pollution, while promoting water conservation

-It's Safe: for hospitals, processors, employees, landfills and the environment

-It's Innovative: the first-ever patented green technology and clean sanitation process replaces current dirty burn/steam technology

-It's Cost-Effective: Priced competitively with current technology, it also eliminates costly hazardous materials handling and transportation fees

"The TrinovaMed Green Machine is a simple, clean and cost-efficient solution for our facility," said Ali Tourkaman, Vice President of Facilities for Eisenhower Medical Center, who adopted a first-generation version of the system in 2008 and was the first to utilize this state-of-the-art technology. "With TrinovaMed as our waste management partner we can stay focused and channel our resources to our biggest priority - our patients."

Trinova Medical Waste Solutions, LLC is a full-service medical waste management company, providing white-glove installation of the TrinovaMed Monarch Green Machine, staff training plus ongoing maintenance and technical services.
