Description
Description of Industrial Invention:
“SANITIZING DIFFUSION DEVICE AND SYSTEM”
Field of the invention
The present invention relates to the field of room bio-decontamination. In particular, the present invention concerns a sanitizing diffusion device and a sanitizing system using the same.
Background art
As is known, sanitization (hereinafter also referred to as “bio-decontamination”) of a room is effected by diffusing a solution performing a biocidal action. For example, such sanitization may occur by means of a device adapted to diffuse, within the room to be bio-decontaminated, a solution based on hydrogen peroxide or formaldehyde or chlorine dioxide.
As is known, during the sanitization process the room is not fit for use because harmful sanitizer concentrations are reached. In fact, the sanitization cycles are started when there are no operators in the room to be sanitized. Moreover, said room may remain inaccessible for a time interval of 1 hour to 10 hours.
The Applicant has observed that the known sanitizing treatments based on hydrogen peroxide suffer from some limitations.
In particular, the known bio-decontamination treatments based on hydrogen peroxide envisage the following alternatives:
- evaporation of hydrogen peroxide at high concentration (e.g. higher than 30%);
- atomization of a peroxide solution at low concentration (e.g. lower than 10%) mixed with additives.
The Applicant has observed that the evaporation of solutions of hydrogen peroxide at high concentrations, e.g. higher than 30%, quickly corrodes the rooms under treatment and objects exposed to peroxide vapours.
Furthermore, treatments using high concentrations (e.g. higher than 30%) of hydrogen peroxide disadvantageously require specific temperature and humidity conditions. This makes it necessary to pre-condition the room to be sanitized, resulting
in higher costs and longer treatment times.
Also, disadvantageously, transportation and/or storage and/or use of highly concentrated solutions of hydrogen peroxide are dangerous for the operators and require compliance with specific regulations and the use of special equipment.
The Applicant has observed that low-concentration (e.g. lower than 10%) hydrogen peroxide solutions are mixed with other substances intended to increase its effectiveness; for example, such additives improve the spatial distribution of the atomized solution.
Disadvantageously, such additives leave residues and increase the amount of particulate matters within the room to be sanitized. The presence of such residues and/or particulate matters may require further steps such as, for example, washing the inside surfaces of the room, thus reducing the efficacy of the bio-decontamination operation.
Moreover, when sanitizing a “clean room” (i.e. an environment with controlled particle and/or microbiological contamination), the introduction of particulate matters into the room being treated constitutes a further drawback.
Also, disadvantageously, additives for solutions with low peroxide concentrations are detrimental to the environment.
The Applicant has observed that, disadvantageously, bio-decontamination treatments using formaldehyde are harmful for the operators working inside the room; in fact, formaldehyde is carcinogenic, cannot be removed easily, and leaves residues inside the room at the end of the treatment.
The Applicant has observed that the known bio-decontamination treatments based on chlorine dioxide or formaldehyde also have further drawbacks, such as, for example:
- they require controlled temperature and humidity conditions during use;
- they require long airing times;
- they are not easy to contain and control.
The Applicant has observed that, when carrying out a bio-decontamination treatment in a large room, it is necessary to use a plurality of devices. Disadvantageously, the use of a plurality of devices does not ensure a proper bio decontamination of the room.
Summary of the invention
It is the object of the present invention to provide a sanitizing device and a sanitizing system which can overcome the above-described problems.
According to a first aspect, the present invention provides a sanitizing device comprising:
- a main body;
- a tank containing a sanitizing liquid;
