Decontaminate N95 Respirators with Bioquell Technology
N95 respirators are a vital component in protecting frontline healthcare professionals. They are a necessary part of treating patients infected with COVID-19, but supplies have been limited due to the pandemic. Healthcare facilities can now reprocess and reuse respirators up to 4 times with Bioquell technology.

REPROCESS N95 RESPIRATORS IN YOUR OWN HOSPITAL NOW
The FDA has granted Bioquell, an Ecolab Solution, an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for decontaminating N95 respirators. Utilizing Bioquell hydrogen peroxide vapor technology, an EPA registered sterilant, facilities can now reclaim N95 respirators quickly, safely and repeatedly.
Each mask can be decontaminated up to 4 times and a single cycle can produce up to 160 reusable masks. The Bioquell process is residue-free, automated and proven with over 50 peer-reviewed studies.

How does it work?
With Bioquell technology, every exposed surface in an enclosed area is covered in a micro-condensation of hydrogen peroxide vapor, effectively killing organisms it comes in to contact with while retaining the integrity of the mask.
Regulatory Details
The Bioquell process (35% aqueous hydrogen peroxide + Bioquell technology) utilizes an EPA registered sterilant which includes an emerging pathogens claim. A complete review of over 50 peer-reviewed studies connected to Bioquell’s efficacy can be found here.
Bioquell’s History with Dangerous and Emerging Pathogens
From SARS in 2003 to Ebola in 2014 to MERS-CoV in 2017, Bioquell technology has been deployed worldwide in the battle against novel coronaviruses and other virulent pathogens.

How the Bioquell Process Works
Step 1: Preparation
The Bioquell decontamination system warms up, getting ready to disperse the vapor. You do not need to reach or wait for temperature or humidity levels to begin.
Step 2: Vaporization
The Bioquell decontamination system emits the vapor into the enclosed area and fills the space, pushing the vapor against every exposed surface, including surrounding complex shapes and crevices.
Step 3: Dwell
With vaporization complete, the enclosed area is at a standstill, allowing the peroxide to dwell on every exposed surface and kill pathogens.
Step 4: Aeration
Your HVAC system, high-powered Bioquell aeration units using catalytic conversion or a combination of both now safely remove all of the hydrogen peroxide vapor from the enclosed area. When aerated with Bioquell units, the vapor is converted into water vapor and oxygen.

Important Information
The Bioquell Technology System has neither been cleared nor approved for the indication to treat patients with COVID-19 infection.
The Bioquell Technology System has been authorized by FDA under an EUA.
The Bioquell Technology System is authorized only for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic declaration, unless the authorization is terminated or revoked sooner.
COVID-19 is caused by SARS-CoV-2. As a sterilant, Bioquell Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant is expected to kill similar viruses and therefore can
be used against SARS-CoV-2 when used in accordance with the directions for use as a sterilant on hard, porous/nonporous surfaces. Refer to
the CDC website at http://www.cdc.gov/outbreaks for additional information.
