Description
Sanitizers and disinfectants are commonly used to kill pathogens and other harmful organisms. The introduction of common fibers used in making of towels and mops can rapidly absorb the active ingredients reducing the strengths of the chemicals. Participants of this session will appraise the interaction of commonly used fabrics and disinfectant/sanitizers,
describe the science behind the measurement of depletion, and calculate cost effective solutions to the depletion issue.
