Infected Waste-Water Management Device

MCM SHUTTER

Back Download

The design of the MCM SHUTTER was born from the idea of creating a simple solution to treating infectious waste water from toilets in pop-up clinics or negative pressure rooms. The unit consists of a water pump and piping system, as well as a tank and a fan, all of which are easy to assemble. It is connected directly to the existing toilet drainage system. Through the pump, the waste water can also be directed into the tank on level ground, where it is sterilised and then discharged back into the existing toilet drainage system. The fan with its built-in HEPA filter serves to keep odours and infectious aerosols away.

Statement by the Jury

The design of the MCM SHUTTER follows an exemplary concept that enables waste water treatment directly on site with little effort.
