With the continuous progress of society, wastewater and sewage have long become the focus of our attention! Especially in the past two years, with the epidemic approaching, relevant departments must pay more attention to the treatment of medical wastewater! Promote the monitoring of medical wastewater treatment to ensure that everyone has access to healthy water sources.
During the epidemic, the ecological environment department issued a notice on doing a good job in the supervision of medical wastewater and urban sewage during the epidemic, guiding all regions to focus on the treatment of medical wastewater in hospitals infected with the novel coronavirus and several isolation sites, and to ensure the normal operation of wastewater treatment facilities and disinfection measures. Coliform bacteria and total residual chlorine are the core indicators for online monitoring of medical wastewater (the instruments used to detect these two indicators are respectively: coliform bacteria online analyzer and total residual chlorine online analyzer). Strictly supervise the treatment and disinfection of medical wastewater.
Although the epidemic has been brought under control in our country, some cases are due to the influence of foreign countries. However, the monitoring of medical wastewater treatment cannot be halted. This is because in places like hospitals, which have a large flow of people and are complex, there are many types of pollutants, such as infectious diseases. Disinfection work should not be stopped either (just in moderation). If it is overused, it is also harmful to human health and the ecological environment!
Disinfection work is indispensable for hospitals. If chlorine disinfectants are used for treatment, it is necessary to pay attention to controlling the total residual chlorine content. Total residual chlorine refers to the residual chlorine content remaining in water after chlorine-based oxidants have been added for a period of time, excluding the consumption of disinfection (the amount of chlorine consumed is equivalent to the amount of harmful substances in the water). If it exceeds the specified index, toxic and carcinogenic substances will be produced. Therefore, in the Online monitoring of medical wastewater, The analysis and monitoring of total residual chlorine content are also indispensable.
