Eco-Safe Biological Waste Management in Burkina Faso

Eco-Safe Biological Waste Management in Burkina Faso: Why the HICLOVER TS30 PLC Incinerator Is the Ideal Choice


In Burkina Faso, healthcare facilities—particularly rural clinics, health centers, and donor-supported medical posts—face significant challenges in managing biological waste such as sharps, contaminated dressings, and experimental specimens. Limited infrastructure and budget constraints mean that many facilities rely on unsafe disposal methods like open burning or shallow burial, increasing risks to public health and the environment.

A compact, reliable, and compliant biological waste incinerator is urgently needed. The HICLOVER TS30 PLC—a 30 kg/hour biological waste incinerator—offers a perfect solution that meets local needs.


Aligning with Burkina Faso’s Context

  • Decentralized healthcare: Many centers serve small daily volumes of clinical waste (~20–30 kg/day), ideal for a 30 kg/hour unit.

  • Infrastructure limitations: Inconsistent electricity, limited fuel supply, and minimal technical maintenance capacity call for rugged, low-maintenance equipment.

  • Regulatory environment: While not all areas have strict emission regulations, growing emphasis on environmental protection and aid agency standards (e.g., WHO, UNOPS) requires cleaner incineration.

  • Operational simplicity: Training opportunities are limited; so devices must be user-friendly and largely automated.


Why the HICLOVER TS30 PLC Is a Standout Choice

Feature Benefit for Burkina Faso
Capacity: ~30 kg/hour Matches volume typical of small health centers; efficient batch processing
PLC Automatic Control Simplifies operation; reduces human error and training burden
Dual Combustion Chambers Primary (solid waste) and secondary (gas cleaning) chambers ensure high-temperature combustion (≥1000 °C) and thorough sterilization
2-Second Residue Time Meets WHO safety guidelines; ensures complete destruction of pathogens and harmful compounds
Front Loading Design Easy operation even in small or cramped facilities
Fuel Flexibility Can be fitted for diesel, LPG, or natural gas depending on local availability
Built-In Safety Features High-temperature retention (HTR), automatic false alarm system (audio/visual), automatic cooling—ideal where supervision is minimal
Optional Wet Scrubber Enhances environmental performance, especially near communities or schools
Compact & Durable Build Robust refractory bricks (≥115 mm, Al₂O₃ 65%) with stainless steel casing—built to withstand harsh climates
Certification CE, ISO 9001:2015, High-Tech Enterprise status—a reassurance of quality and reliability

Real-World Benefits for Burkina Faso

  • Improved biosafety: On-site, complete destruction of pathogens reduces infection risk and environmental contamination.

  • Cost-effective operation: Modest fuel use and easy PLC operation lower running costs.

  • Compliance with aid standards: Meets guidelines from WHO, UNDP, and UNOPS regarding safe medical waste treatment.

  • Scalable solution: Multiple TS30 units can be deployed across districts as needs expand, with consistent performance.


Example Use Case

A district health center in northern Burkina Faso manages 200 patient visits daily, generating ~25 kg of clinical and sharps waste. With a HICLOVER TS30 PLC incinerator, they can:

  • Safely incinerate accumulated waste in the afternoon in one batch

  • Set automatic operation and receive alerts without constant oversight

  • Avoid transporting hazardous waste long distances

  • Comply with emerging Ministry of Health guidelines and potential donor reporting requirements


Final Thoughts

The HICLOVER TS30 PLC embodies the perfect balance of capacity, safety, affordability, and operational simplicity. It provides Burkina Faso’s healthcare facilities with a reliable, environmentally responsible solution for biological waste disposal—supporting cleaner, safer clinics and healthier communities.
