Management of organic biomedical waste is a global quandary, and it is becoming difficult to confront day by day. Conversion of organic biomedical waste into fertilizer is of great concern. In the present research, organic biomedical waste samples (blood swabs, dressing swabs, and used cotton) were collected then after cow dung was collected in sterile container and immediately transported to the laboratory and screened for any gastrointestinal infection by using routine microscopy for intestinal parasitic infection, routine bacterial culture, and fecal occult blood for any intestinal bleeding. Then after, the pure culture of organisms and fungus were prepared, and further samples were subjected to degradation for 288 h by using various organisms and fungus. Then after, the specific quantity of biomedical waste was subjected for incineration. The physicochemical parameters of biomedical waste samples were analyzed. Then treated samples were mixed with soil to confirm a role as potential fertilizer. Then after, tomato plantation was done and phytochemical parameters of tomato plant were analyzed. This study states that organic biomedical waste produces a sanitary and stable fertilizer.
有机生物医学废物的管理是一个全球性的难题，而且每天都变得越来越难以应对。将有机生物医学废物转化为肥料备受关注。在本研究中，收集了有机生物医学废物样本（血拭子、敷料拭子和用过的棉花），然后在无菌容器中收集牛粪，并立即将其运送到实验室，通过常规显微镜检查肠道寄生虫感染、常规细菌培养和粪便潜血检查来筛查任何胃肠道感染。然后，准备了纯培养的微生物和真菌，进一步将样本用各种微生物和真菌进行 288 小时的降解。然后，将特定数量的生物医学废物进行焚烧。分析生物医学废物样本的理化参数。然后将处理过的样本与土壤混合，以确认其作为潜在肥料的作用。然后进行番茄种植，并分析番茄植物的植物化学参数。本研究表明，有机生物医学废物可产生卫生且稳定的肥料。
