A method for thermally disinfecting waste, particularly biologically hazardouswaste, wherein the waste is placed in a compaction area and compressed, andthe gases given off during waste compaction are filtered before beingdischarged. The mould is then sealed and heated, and the temperature andpressure therein are monitored. The waste is heated to 100-200 ~C and allparts that have contacted the waste are also disinfected.
