    1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/a>OBJECTIVE OF THE PROGRAMME<\/h1>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The objective of the programme is to select technical criteria suitable for tender specification purposes that will enable the South African Department of Health to obtain the services and equipment necessary for the primary health care clinics to carry out small-scale incineration for the disposal of medical waste.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The test programme is being carried out in phases, as follows:<\/p>\n

    Phase 1\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A scoping study to decide the responsibility of the different parties and<\/p>\n

    consensus on the test criteria and boundaries of the laboratory tests. The criteria for accepting an incinerator on trial was approved by all parties involved.<\/p>\n

    Phase 2\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Laboratory tests with a ranking of each incinerator and the selection of the incinerators to be used in the field trials.<\/p>\n

    Phase 3\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Completion of field trials, to assess the effectiveness of each incinerator under field conditions.<\/p>\n

    Phase 4\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Preparation of a tender specification and recommendations to the DoH for the implementation of an ongoing incineration programme.<\/p>\n
