When a Singapore-based vertical farming facility, needed a fast and effective alternative to its slow and labour intensive manual cleaning operations during
a crop changeover, it turned to Bioquell and its highly effective Rapid Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS). Bioquell RBDS successfully decontaminated its indoor vertical hydroponic room without interruption to the company’s workflow.
Although Biological Indicators are commonly used as bio-decontamination indicators, there are several limitations associated with their use. Bioquell chemical indicators offer a solution to the limitations of BIs and are formulated and calibrated to a defined BI response to Bioquell hydrogen peroxide vapour technology, providing a visible colour change to indicate 6 log kill conditions have been met. With less variability and no wait time for results, Bioquell Room CI is a fast and effective indicator that improves risk management and reduces your operating costs.

When performing automated decontamination cycles using hydrogen peroxide vapour, user safety is of the utmost importance. To ensure this, it is important that any low-level hydrogen peroxide sensor, used to determine the end of a decontamination cycle, is accurate. Doing so also helps optimise cycle time. This paper overviews how Bioquell now have a calibration capability able to expose these sensors to a 1ppm hydrogen peroxide vapour concentration verified accurately using the published OSHA 1019 Method.

A newly constructed world class hospital, Sidra Medicine in Doha, Qatar, required a high level of disinfection of key clinical areas in a short timeframe to be completed prior to its grand opening in early 2018. Bioquell was selected to perform a 6-log decontamination of identified areas consisting of 450 rooms totaling 56,000 cubic metres in a 15-day timeframe.
