U.S. EPA. Evaluation of Chlorine Dioxide Gas and Peracetic Acid Fog for the Decontamination of a Mock Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Duct System. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, EPA/600/R-14/014, 2014.
Impact/Purpose:
The primary objective of this investigation was to determine the efficacy of chlorine dioxide (ClO2) fumigation for inactivating bacterial spores (using a surrogate for Bacillus anthracis) inside a pilot-scale heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) ductwork system. The decontamination efficacy of fogging with peracetic acid (PAA) in an HVAC duct system was also studied as a secondary objective.
