Abstract

This study explores the use of ozone decontamination as a sustainable approach for eradicating pathogens from various environments. Ozone, a highly reactive gas, demonstrates remarkable efficacy in eliminating bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Decontamination of textile materials using an innovative ozone treatment method conducted under vacuum conditions has been investigated. A hybrid apparatus comprising a vacuum and an ozone generator was employed for the decontamination process. Ozone decontamination offers environmental benefits by avoiding harmful by-products and minimising long-term environmental exposure. However, challenges include the need for proper equipment and training to ensure safety and effectiveness. This research underscores the promise of ozone decontamination as a powerful and eco-friendly method for pathogen eradication in textile materials with future developments in diverse settings.
