Abstract
A waste liquid and smoke disposal system which combines the functions of a smoke extraction system and a waste (typically, liquid) collection system, typically in, but not limited to, a surgical environment. The smoke extraction system and the liquid waste collection system are connected to supply the waste materials collected thereby to a waste treatment (e.g. decontamination and/or sterilization) and disposal system. These three systems are all combined into an integrated system wherein the treated waste can be safely returned to the ambient. In one embodiment, the integrated system is provided as a cart-mounted apparatus to provide mobility.
