Disinfection and sterilization processes

Disinfection reduces the bacterial count to a level where infections no longer occur. Germs are completely removed during sterilization. Both processes can be carried out in different ways. Most chemical disinfection processes use Cl2, ClO2, H2O2 or alcohols (Alc). Ethylene oxide (ETO) or CH2O are frequently used in sterilization processes. All these substances are toxic and residual values – especially in closed rooms – must be monitored.
