In fact, when it comes to medical wastewater, I have already learned a lot about it with everyone before. This article continues to explore the monitoring work of medical wastewater treatment throughout the day.

Medical wastewater is nothing more than some wastewater discharged from various departments of hospitals. The situation is complex and it contains some infectious viruses. Therefore, while hospitals are treating medical wastewater, they should also do a good job in online monitoring of medical wastewater, monitoring the changes of various indicators in real time. Only after confirming that it meets the standards can it be discharged. The entire process of medical wastewater treatment is divided into: wastewater collection, treatment, disinfection, monitoring, etc. Only when all the indicators in the water meet the standards can it be discharged. Avoid the occurrence of “secondary pollution” as much as possible.

So, after the wastewater is treated, which indicators need to be monitored and investigated? The most common monitoring indicator in medical care is “coliform bacteria”. However, with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in the past two years, relevant departments have required that the monitoring of total residual chlorine in medical wastewater be given more attention! Due to frequent disinfection, it is very easy for the total residual chlorine to exceed the standard, thereby bringing corresponding dangers! So, from the current situation, coliform bacteria and total residual chlorine are two important indicators in the online monitoring of medical wastewater! The content of coliform bacteria in wastewater can be detected respectively by using the WECT-900 Coliform Bacteria Online Analyzer. The total residual chlorine content in water is monitored in real time through the Hangzhou Modi RCl900 Total Residual Chlorine Online Analyzer. Once an excess is found, it should be dealt with promptly.

Of course, the indicators that need to be monitored in medical wastewater are not limited to the two mentioned above. There are also some other routine indicators that need to be well monitored. The specific situation should be based on the specific conditions of the wastewater to select the appropriate water quality monitoring instrument.
