This disclosure includes a description of a sanitizing system for sanitizing a mobile electronic device comprising: a housing; a sanitizer contained within the housing configured to emit radiation with a sanitizing effect; and an entry system with a default closed position, the entry system being configured to permit a mobile electronic device to pass through the entry system and then automatically return to the default closed position, the entry system comprising a first outer enclosure and a second inner obstruction; wherein the entry system blocks radiation emitted within the sanitizing system to a level acceptable for consumer use, or wherein the second inner obstruction provides more radiation attenuation than the first outer enclosure, and/or wherein the combination of the first outer enclosure and the second inner obstruction provides more radiation attenuation than the first outer enclosure by itself. Disclosed are internal reflectors to help distribute sanitizing radiation generally evenly.

A sterilization cabinet for use in an autoclave. The sterilization cabinet includes one or more filtered vents permitting sterilization agent to enter and exit the interior space of the cabinet during a sterilization cycle. Each vent is occluded by a cover plate. The cover plate contains a latch configured to accept a rod extending from the center of the vent and engage a notch disposed thereon. The floor of the cabinet is shaped to direct the liquid contained within the cabinet to flow into the drain port disposed within the floor. The drain assembly is used to expel the liquid from the cabinet while preventing microbes and contaminants from entering the cabinet. The hinges connecting the door to the cabinet can be used to adjust an angle of inclination, a horizontal position, and a vertical position of the door.

The present invention relates to a device for isolating and cleaning contaminated components comprising a chamber, an entrance door through which components to be isolated and cleaned are introducible into the chamber, means configured to deliver washing solution into the chamber and onto the components to be cleaned, a drying system configured to dry the chamber as well as its content, wherein the device further comprises an exhaust filter system attached to the air exhaust of the chamber, the exhaust filter system comprising a pipe, at least one filter and a blower, the exhaust filter system being configured to be able to bring the chamber under a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure by means of the blower all the time the chamber is closed. The present invention also relates to a corresponding method for isolating and cleaning contaminated components with the aforementioned device.

An air disinfection device includes: a housing that includes an inlet port for taking air therethrough and a disinfection chamber that has a shell in a shape of a truncated ellipsoid. The device also includes: a disinfection head that is disposed in the inlet port and includes a light source for generating disinfection light that disinfects the air in the disinfection chamber, where the light source is located substantially on a plane where a first focal point of the truncated ellipsoid is located. The disinfection head further includes a fan for taking the air through the inlet port to the disinfection chamber and a filter for filtering the air. The device further includes a power source electrically coupled to the disinfection head and configured to provide electrical power for the disinfection head.

An apparatus includes a containment vessel having an interior space configured to be sealed. The interior space is configured to receive (i) liquid to be vaporized during a decontamination process and (ii) one or more pieces of personal protection equipment to be heated and decontaminated during the decontamination process. The apparatus also includes one or more flameless heaters configured to generate heat without a flame when activated. The apparatus further includes a thermal pouch configured to enclose the containment vessel and the one or more flameless heaters such that the heat from the one or more flameless heaters heats the containment vessel during the decontamination process.

Disclosed is a steam sterilizer, and a single use/disposable container for use in the steriliser and a sterilisation method. The container is a rigid or semi-rigid container having a sealable elongate conduit through which steam sterilant may be introduced into the container and steam sterilant and condensate may be removed from the container. Once one or more items to be sterilised are placed in the container a cover is sealed over the mouth of the container. The steam steriliser has a sterilisation chamber adapted to receive the container and provide sterilant within and around the container. Sterilant is provided to the container via the conduit which is sealed at the end of the sterilisation process.

Disclosed are a disinfection and sterilization apparatus and method for a refrigerated container transportation system. The disinfection and sterilization apparatus comprises a to-be-treated waiting area, a disinfection and sterilization system, a treatment waiting area and a central control system, wherein a first prompter is arranged in the to-be-treated waiting area; the disinfection and sterilization system comprises a disinfection and sterilization bin, a vacuumizing device and an ozone supply device; a disinfection and sterilization bin inlet and a disinfection and sterilization bin outlet are respectively formed in the left side and the right side of the disinfection and sterilization bin; the top of the disinfection and sterilization bin is provided with a detaching and hanging device for detaching or hanging a refrigerated container and a transportation vehicle; a second prompter is arranged in the treatment waiting area; and the central control system is connected with the first prompter, the disinfection and sterilization bin inlet, the disinfection and sterilization bin outlet, the detaching and hanging device and the second prompter through data transmission lines. According to the disinfection and sterilization apparatus and method, a new coronavirus propagation path of cold-chain food in the refrigerated container can be effectively, and particularly, adverse effects of disinfection and sterilization apparatuses on parts such as engines and tires of transportation vehicles in the vacuumizing and ozone injection processes can be avoided.
