Everyone is aware of the global efforts to reduce the amount of plastic and chemicals entering our environment. Inhaled anesthetics are known to deplete the ozone layer and the health care sector accounts for 8% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions with operating rooms generating 20-30% of total hospital waste1.
SpiraLithCa® Absorbent provides an opportunity to significantly reduce environmental footprint:
-
SpiraLithCa® Absorbent’s superior duration and decreased frequency of cannister changes mean users contribute significantly less plastic and chemicals to our landfills.
-
SpiraLithCa® Absorbent is safe for low-flow anesthesia, meaning users can significantly reduce inhaled anesthetics entering our atmosphere.
-
SpiraLithCa® Absorbent is non-hazardous by California CCR Title 22 – Fathead Minnow Hazardous Waste Screen Bioassay.
