Disinfectant Thermal Fogging Machine

A disinfectant thermal fogging machine is a device that uses heat to convert liquid disinfectant into a fine mist or fog, which can then be dispersed over a large area to kill viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. The fogging process is intended to disinfect surfaces and areas that may be difficult to reach with traditional cleaning methods.

The fogging machine typically consists of a tank for holding the disinfectant, a heating element to heat the liquid, and a nozzle to disperse the fog. The machine works by heating the liquid disinfectant to a high temperature, which causes it to vaporize and form a fog or mist. The fog is then dispersed through the nozzle into the air, where it can settle on surfaces and penetrate hard-to-reach areas, such as crevices, cracks, and small spaces.

Disinfectant thermal fogging machines are commonly used in hospitals, schools, offices, and other public places to help prevent the spread of infectious diseases. However, it is important to note that while thermal fogging machines can be effective in killing pathogens, they are not a substitute for regular cleaning and disinfection practices. It is important to follow proper cleaning and disinfection protocols in conjunction with the use of a thermal fogging machine to ensure the highest level of cleanliness and safety. 

FAQ 

1. What purpose does thermal fogging serve?

Ans - As was already noted, thermal foggers were frequently employed to keep mosquitoes at bay. Nevertheless, since the Coronavirus outbreak, these same fogger machines are also utilised to disinfect and clean surfaces and regions of germs. 

2. What is the working principle of fogging machine?

Ans - A liquid, such as glycol or liquid nitrogen, is typically used in a fluid-based fogger machine. In order to create vapour, it warms the mixture. The vapour then exits via the nozzle, combining with the chilly air to create a thick fog. This type of fog clings around longer than the dry ice fog.

3. What kind of chemical does a thermal fogging machine use?

Ans - A controlled or indoor environment can be sanitized with the help of chemical fogging, particularly H2O2 or hydrogen peroxide fogging. The hydrogen peroxide alone is a potent decontaminate, and when delivered in an aerosol form, it is capable of accomplishing a 6-log kill. 

4. Thermal fogging: is it harmful?

Ans - No. As long as the chemicals utilised are safe to use where people and animals will be present, fogging itself is not dangerous to either people or pets.
