Disinfection
Destruction or inactivation of all pathogenic germs.
Disinfection makes up an essential part of the antiseptic mode of operation. Technically, a distinction is made between disinfection and sterilisation.
Disinfection means a reduction of germs by a factor of at least 105, i.e. no more than one of the original 100,000 germs capable of reproduction (so-called colony-forming units - CFU) survives. Sterilisation, on the other hand, aims for 100% sterilisation.
The process is always selected depending on the circumstances and needs.
The disinfection of waste water, drinking water or liquid media as well as containers and pipelines can be carried out by various methods. Here Chriwa uses proven chemical and physical processes.
Particularly common chemical processes are based on the addition of chlorine, chlorine dioxide, hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid or ozone. Common physical processes are based on heating the medium or irradiation with UV light. Again, the process is selected depending on your needs and the local conditions.
