peracetic acid is a very useful molecule with a wide antimicrobial spectrum against bacteria
spores and viruses its entry microbial activity is rapid and effective and at low temperatures
for these reasons peracetic acid is often used in a wide range of segments such as wastewater
treatment pulp and paper naval transportation but also in food and beverage in life science
and in hospital and health care parasitic acid is often described as harmless because it decomposes
into hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid which can be considered as everyday non-persistent
and non-harmful molecules however peracetic acid itself is harmful to human health and
exposure is linked to respiratory disease and chronic exposure can result in severe effects
its by-products acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide not only create other nuisances but
are also strictly regulated in terms of working exposure limits fortunately parasitic acid and
its byproduct can be effectively effectively removed from air through molecular filtration
a proper combination of different molecular filtration media can be put together to address
vapors of peracetic acid acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide depending on the targeting applications
product from the CamCarb and the procarb range will be selected workers from the food and
beverage the biopharma and the health care sectors already benefit from Camfil molecular filtration
solutions to breathe a cleaner and safer air free from peracetic acid the performance of Camfil
molecular filters is validated according to the methodology described in ISO 10121
