초록

Aerosols carrying viruses that are released from the oral cavity of infected individuals are the primary, if not the only, means of transmission during viral respiratory disease epidemics. This makes crowded rooms and tiny, enclosed public areas like bathrooms prime environments for the transmission of diseases. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and formaldehyde are two contaminants that pose serious threats to human health and well-being in indoor environments. The varied disinfectant properties of chlorine dioxide (ClO2) make it a key player in treating a range of air quality issues. To balance effectiveness and safety, however, the careful application of chlorine dioxide is essential to achieving the best results in air quality while preserving human health and well-being. This study explores the many functions of chlorine dioxide, including the prevention of the spread of viruses, the elimination of harmful gases like ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, and its effects on formaldehyde and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs) in indoor environments using BT100. The results indicate a reduction of 98.5%, 81.01%, 62.22%, 46.5%, and 63.84% in minimizing aerosolized viruses, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide gas in addition to formaldehyde and total volatile organic compounds.
