7. Burn down the waste. � Load the last safety box. � Wait 10 minutes and add firewood to maintain the fire and ensure the waste is completely burned. This may take up to 30 minutes. � When the waste is completely burned, allow the fire to die out. � Do not leave the incinerator until the fire has burned down to embers. 23
VIII. Maintenance and Repair Scheduled maintenance All incineration equipment requires regular service and preventative maintenance. Unscheduled maintenance is also required in the event of failures. A service schedule should be established, and well-trained and qualified technicians should regularly visit incineration sites to inspect and service the equipment. A budget to cover travel of service and maintenance personnel or contractors is essential. During site visits, task performed and consumables or spare parts used should be recorded. Consumables should also be stocked as part of a routine service program (fuel filters, burner nozzles, etc.). Fastmoving spare parts should also be stocked (temperature sensing probes, grates, etc.). Operator logs It is very important that operator logs are maintained and kept up to date. Information recorded in operator logs should include waste deposited and source, waste destroyed, fuel consumed, equipment defects, and service and maintenance history. Annex 7 is an incinerator maintenance checklist for operators, which includes the following. Daily Maintenance � Check for evidence of cracks on the brickwork. � Perform simple repairs but avoid makeshift solutions. � Keep the area clean and disinfected. � Carefully sweep the area around the incinerator. � Clean tools and equipment. � Store safety boxes and other health care waste in an orderly manner. � Maintain fuel stock levels. Weekly Maintenance � Clean the chimney and remove the soot. � Remove lumps of melted glass/plastics and clean grates. � Properly reinstall the grates after cleaning. � Maintain good housekeeping of the waste disposal site. � Ensure the fencing is intact. � Check the cement seal to brickwork. Monthly Maintenance � Ensure the fence of the site is intact. � Check the vertical fixings of the chimney. � Check the top sand seals. � Check the external brickwork for evidence of thermal damage. � Check the cement seal to brickwork. � Check the ash door for corrosion. � Check the ash door for damaged hinges. � Check the ash door for latch blockage in the doorframe. � Take an inventory of condition of tools and equipment. 24
