I work in a veterinary clinic. I know that we put sharps into sharps bins, which go into a big medical waste box when they are full, and that a medical waste company picks them up.
What happens after that?
They dump all the sharps I to a big autoclave (a big airtight chamber that is pressurized with superheated steam) to disinfect them and then they are dumped in a landfill.
