General waste & soiled linen
The Huzhou Central Hospital, also known as the Huzhou Zhebei Medical Centre, is in charge of providing medical care to over 4 million individuals from Huzhou (Zhejiang province), Xuancheng (Anhui province), Wujiang (Jiangsu province) and its surrounding areas. Envac’s automatic waste collection system (AWCS) provides an efficient solution for managing general waste and soiled linen in the hospital, creating a safer and cleaner hospital environment.
The Huzhou Central Hospital is expanding its campus to meet the healthcare demands of the region. The first phase of this project is designed to cover 240,000 square metres of construction area and offer 1,500 beds, while the second phase, Huzhou Public Health Clinical Center, covers 135,000 square meters of construction area and accommodates 800 beds with an investment of 1.06 billion CNY. The Clinical Centre is expected to open in June 2025.
General waste & soiled linen
43 inlets for general waste & 31 inlets for soiled linen
3 tonnes/day general waste & 9 tonnes/day (30 cubic metres/day) soiled linen collected
System is running round the clock to facilitate the load of waste at all times
Envac has customised two advanced automatic waste collection systems (AWCS) for the Huzhou Central Hospital, which are integrated with the local healthcare situation and hospital development plan.
One system is designed for collecting general waste, disposing of 3 tonnes of household waste collected from 43 disposal inlets. Another system collects soiled linen, covering 30 cubic metres of soiled clothing and bed linen from 31 linen inlets.
Envac systems organise all this waste collection through the pipe network of over 2,000 metres covering the whole hospital area. The Envac system is designed based on the specific needs of Huzhou Central Hospital to improve the overall hospital experience.
Our hospital produces around 3 tonnes of general waste every day. By compressing the waste, each container can hold up to 5 tonnes of general waste. This means that once the system is operational, we only need to transit the hospital’s general waste once daily. This is a significant achievement in ensuring a clean and safe environment for patients and staff at the hospital.
