ClorDiSys offers decontamination services to provide a sterilization level fumigation of any enclosed space
at your facility. This biodecontamination can take place for a variety of applications, including:
ClorDiSys' chlorine dioxide gas technology
allows for a complete decontamination of your facility, with minimal equipment and minimal downtime.
Gaseous systems provide the ability to achieve a complete distribution and thorough penetration to each and every surface
within your facility, including visible and invisible cracks and crevices. Chlorine dioxide is safe on materials and leaves
no post treatment residuals.
Complete Facilities Case Study:
A 170,000 ft3 new university research facility was decontaminated upon completion of construction and prior
to the commencement of operations. Gaseous chlorine dioxide was chosen to decontaminate the facility to ensure that all
rooms and equipment were free of contamination. ClorDiSys was able to fumigate the facility and eliminate any organisms
present while providing sporicidal kill of Biological Indicators (comprised of 1 million bacillus atrophaeus spores) placed throughout
the facility to ensure the process was successful. The setup and decontamination of this facility took 2 days (1 day for setup
and 1 day for decontamination and clean-up). |
Rooms/Suites Case Study:
A 9,000 ft3 university tuberculosis (TB) research facility was decontaminated as part of a renovation effort
which included its HVAC system. ClorDiSys was able to fumigate the facility and eliminate any organisms present while
providing sporicidal kill of Biological Indicators (comprised of bacillus atrophaeus spores) placed throughout the facility
to ensure the process was successful. |
Laboratories Case Study:
A 65 - room, 180,000 ft3 laboratory facility was decontaminated with chlorine dioxide gas prior to its
opening to ensure sterility after renovation. Equipment and supplies were brought in prior to the decontamination such
that they would be exposed and decontaminated as well. This provided a large time savings as each individual piece of equipment
and supply did not need to be treated individually in an autoclave or other pass-through system. |
Surgical Suites Case Study:
A surgical suite is routinely decontaminated with chlorine dioxide gas in between surgeries to ensure a sterile surgical environment
for future surgeries. Gaseous chlorine dioxide was chosen to decontaminate the suite due to its short cycle times such that multiple
surgeries can be performed in the suite each day, which was impossible when using VPHP.

HVAC Ductwork/HEPA Housings Case Study:
An HVAC system handling a BSL-2 and BSL-3 HIV and Hepatitis C research laboratory was decontaminated with chlorine dioxide gas
prior to its renovation. This allowed for the renovation crew to work in a safe environment without having to wear personal protective
equipment (PPE) while performing renovation work. This allowed for a quicker and more cost-effective renovation of the space. Chlorine
dioxide gas was used due to its ability to reach all surfaces and distribute throughout the entire length of ductwork without condensing
or leaving a residue.

Equipment
Animal holding rooms are routinely decontaminated with chlorine dioxide gas as a preventative measure and also as contamination response.
Chlorine dioxide gas is used every day to decontaminate sensitive equipment, electronics, and other every day equipment found in the life
science industry with no material compatibility issues. Equipment can be tented or decontaminated along with the room it's contained in
depending on facility constraints. |
Transport Vans Case Study:
Transport van was decontaminated in between uses with chlorine dioxide gas as a preventative measure. Chlorine dioxide
gas offers a residue free method which contacts all surfaces, cracks, and crevices from floor to ceiling ensuring safety from
pathogens. |
