Indiclean Turn to Ozone Gas
for Interior Cleaning
Last year we were asked by
a few Captains if we had a
product to fumigate crew
areas to clean the air of any
viruses (Flu bugs etc) that
were lingering and causing
problems with crew health.
So we’ve been in the UK
visiting businesses & health
care trusts who have similar
problems to see how they
deal with it.
What most convinced us
was meeting with a large
NHS hospital in Harrow,
London who became ‘heavily
contaminated’ with a
contagious bacteria. After
fumigating the areas using
Ozone gas (0³) the bacteria
was ‘completely eradicated’
Ozone gas (0³) produced by
commercial Ozone generators
is widely used in the US and
UK commercial sector for
fumigation against pathogens
(viruses, bacteria & mould)
and to kill odours. Hospitals
use Ozone in wards and
theatres to sanitise the air
and surfaces.The attraction of ozone air
cleaning for Indi Clean is the
zero environmental impact
of producing the most
powerful broad spectrum
microbiological control agent.
Its only by-product is Oxygen.Areas can be ‘fumigated’
using no harsh chemicals with
virtually no hindrance to crew.
The air afterwards is pure
and clean.
Below are a few words
detailing the product/
procedure.Air & Surface Sanitisation
using Ozone (O³).The Crew live onboard in
very close quarters often
in a sealed environment inaccommodation that has
little access to fresh air - ideal
places for bacteria, viruses &
mould (pathogens) to flourish
and dwell. Often if one Crew
member gets sick - all crew
members get sick.Ozone is the most powerful
oxidative agent that occurs
naturally. With its extra free
radical oxygen molecule,
ozone is able to destroy
bacteria, viruses, and
microbes that cause surface
or air contaminations.
Furthermore, it leaves no
chemical residue typical
of alternative detergent
or synthetic cleaners, and
if handled properly - by
converting ozone (O³) back to
oxygen molecules (O²) - it can
be one of the most effective
sterilizing tools.Cleaning interior spaces
using Ozone air purification
eliminates virtually all
airborne viruses, bacteria &
fungus - pathogens that make
us sick. Ozone is the most
powerful broad spectrum
microbiological control agent
available, it not only cleans
the air but also penetrates
all exposed fabric
eliminating harmful
pathogens and odours.
Ozone is able to eliminate
airborne and surface
contaminants and germs.
The portable steriliser unit
(Ozone Generator) is easy and
safe to use, and has a novel
“scrubbing” technology that
removes all ozone gases at the
end of each sterilization cycle,
by converting ozone gas (O³)
back to oxygen (O²).As an added advantage, the
air sterilizer will leave the
cabin odour-free and smelling
fresh & clean.Ozone is Eco friendly - it’s only
by product is oxygen.The Ozone making generator
is left in each cabin for twenty
minutes to purify the air - the
cabin is safe to enter after
this period.Benefits:*Ozone is 51% more powerful
on bacterial cells than chlorine*Ozone virtually eliminates all
chemical use*Ozone is chemical free, it
produces no toxic by products*Ozone has full FDA approval
for direct food contact
application*Ozone is extremely effective
as a disinfectant*Ozone is generated onsite- no transporting, storage
or handling of hazardous
materials
*Ozone is much safer for crew
than conventional chemicals*Ozone sanitation has no
negative impact on the
environment the crew or the
operator. Ozone benefits the
environment by both reducing
the use of energy to heat
water for cleaning and
lower chemical use onboard.
It creates no harmful
by-products.MALLORCA YACHTING INDUSTRY NEWS
