        abstract = {Sanitary waste is non-biodegradable in nature and there is no effective way available to deal with this waste and also due to social stigmas attached to mensuration in our country, the sanitary waste ends up in a dustbin. In present work the system involves an incinerator which uses electricity to heat the heating coil which in turn will lit up the sanitary napkins which when put into it. The principal of heat being generated when current is passed through a resistance is employed in various household appliances like electric iron, water heaters. Although the disclosed device has the same principal of operation, here the heat produced is used to burn the sanitary napkin which is dumped into the incinerator. For this purpose, the most commonly used heating coil made up of ni chrome alloy is used. The material used for the body of the incinerator is stainless steel as it is poor conductor of heat therefore it will not get heated up quickly during the use of the incinerator. The sanitary napkins primarily surrounded by papers will have an ignition temperature of around 250-to-300 degree Celsius. When the napkin burns, it is reduced to ashes. The burnt ashes will be collected at the removable ash collector being rigidly tightened to the upper part of the incinerator. The disclosed pot is scalable in all aspects because the materials preferred for this investigation is easily reachable in the marketplace. This system can be used in all schools, colleges, hospitals and offices etc.},
