Laboratory Decontamination Equipment - MICRO

High treatment power and energy efficiency for critical effluents

The MICRO by Actini Group is a high-performance thermal decontamination unit designed for laboratories generating larger volumes of effluents (up to 500 L/day). This plug-and-play system, capable of handling high containment classes (BSL-1 to BSL-3), integrates energy recovery technology to combine biological safety with controlled operational costs.

  • Capacity: Up to 500 L/day (expandable to 1,500 L)
  • Technology: Patented thermal batch process with energy recovery
  • Energy: 100% electric (optimized, up to 65% energy savings)
  • Compliance: Virology laboratories, R&D centers, animal health facilities

Reduce production downtime with the Actini Group MICRO.

Why choose the MICRO for your facility?

High-level performance and safety

  • Full versatility: receives and treats effluents from sinks, safety showers, washers and process utilities.
  • Guaranteed inactivation: adjustable cycles (135 °C for 2 min or 121 °C for 20 min) achieving F0 = 50, ensuring the destruction of the most resistant pathogens.
  • Clean-in-place (CIP): integrates a CIP function for the treatment tank to prevent fouling and maintain perfect hygiene.

Energy efficiency and reduced footprint

  • Integrated energy recovery: reduces electricity consumption by up to 65%, a major advantage for sites aiming to reduce their carbon footprint.
  • No chilled water required: unlike many systems, the MICRO does not require an external chilled water unit to cool effluents.
  • All-in-one design: despite its increased capacity, it can be installed directly in laboratories or technical basements.

Long-term added value for your infrastructure

The MICRO is not just a safety device, it is also a performance driver for your facility.

  • Lower operating costs: thanks to energy recovery and the absence of chilled water requirements, the cost per treated liter is among the lowest on the market.
  • Fast commissioning: series production and full factory testing ensure immediate operation once connected to utilities (plug-and-play).
  • BSL-3 adaptability: the High Risk Package allows you to increase the biosafety level without changing equipment, protecting your long-term investment.
  • Environmental management: fully electric and chemical-free, perfectly aligned with ISO 14001 environmental policies.

Application fields

  • BSL-3 research and virology centers: centralizes decontamination for entire units (showers, washers, sinks) with complete containment.
  • Animal health and veterinary institutes: secure inactivation of zoonotic agents and management of organic effluents.
  • Biotech and industrial pilot facilities: cost-effective alternative to large treatment plants, reducing operational expenses thanks to energy recovery.
  • Large modular laboratories: centralized treatment point for multi-container structures or advanced field research sites.
  • Backup solution: ensures service continuity during maintenance of central decontamination installations.

Capacity and intelligent control

Treatment capacity: 500 liters/day standard (expandable to 1,500 liters with external storage option). Zero human intervention: fully automated operation with continuous cycle monitoring. Industrial traceability: integrated production reports to guarantee batch compliance.

Focus on the automated treatment process

Smart collection and volume management

  • Gravity filling
    The system continuously receives effluents. The cycle automatically starts once the required level is reached.
  • Scalable capacity
    Internal storage of 25 L, expandable with a 1,000 L external tank to handle production peaks.

Advanced technology and discharge safety

  • Optimized electric heating: patented system uses energy recovery to preheat incoming effluents, reducing heating time.
  • Secure cooling: integrated heat exchanger ensures outlet temperature below 60 °C, fully compatible with standard drainage systems.
  • Automated control: full PLC supervision with automatic cycle recording and integrated production reports.
