Dealing with biohazard situations is not only about removing visible contaminants but also about addressing the invisible – odors. At Econ Biohazard, we understand that lingering odors from crime scenes, trauma incidents, or biological accidents can be distressing and overwhelming for property owners in Atlanta and the surrounding areas. Eliminating these odors is crucial for restoring a safe and comfortable environment.
Understanding the Source of Odors
The first step in effective odor removal is identifying the source. Odors in biohazard scenarios typically come from organic matter, which can include blood, bodily fluids, and tissue. At Econ Biohazard, our trained technicians use state-of-the-art detection tools to identify and assess the extent of biohazard contamination, ensuring that no affected area is overlooked.
Techniques for Odor Elimination
Once the source is identified, our team employs a combination of advanced cleaning techniques and technologies to tackle odors head-on:
- Chemical Treatments: We use EPA-approved disinfectants to clean all surfaces thoroughly. These powerful solutions not only disinfect but also neutralize odors at their source.
- Ozone Generators: For pervasive odors, ozone generators are particularly effective. These devices produce ozone (O3), a molecule that reacts with odor-causing substances to alter their chemical composition and eliminate the odor.
- Hydroxyl Generators: As an alternative to ozone, hydroxyl generators use UV light to produce hydroxyl radicals, which are highly reactive molecules that neutralize odors and pathogens effectively.
- Thermal Fogging: This method uses a fine mist that penetrates deep into surfaces to neutralize odor-causing particles. It is especially effective for porous materials that can harbor residues and smells.
Preventive Measures
Beyond just addressing the immediate odors, our team focuses on preventive strategies to ensure that odors do not recur. We seal porous surfaces and provide recommendations for ongoing ventilation and humidity control, crucial factors in maintaining an odor-free environment post-cleanup.
