dc.description.abstract | Evaluating the efficacy of aqueous ozone
as a disinfectant in the field of aviation and its
potential to replace traditional chemical
disinfectants is a major task. Aqueous ozone is a
sustainable and environmentally friendly
disinfection solution that rapidly inactivates a wide
range of microorganisms, including bacteria,
viruses, fungi, and protozoa. Through a comparative
analysis, the research found that aqueous ozone
offers several benefits over conventional chemical
disinfectants in terms of broad-spectrum
antimicrobial activity, extended disinfection
capabilities, and eco-friendliness. The study
proposes the development of a compact, portable
aqueous ozone generator specifically designed for
use within aircraft lavatories, which serve as
environments with an intensified presence of
pathogens, necessitating effective disinfection
measures. The research concludes that aqueous
ozone is a promising disinfectant for aircraft
lavatories, providing an efficient and sustainable
solution for maintaining high levels of hygiene and
minimizing the risk of microbial transmission and a
portable aqueous ozone generator will be a better
system to apply. However, practical considerations
such as equipment requirements, operational
protocols, and regulatory compliance need to be
addressed for successful implementation. Overall,
this research highlights the potential of aqueous
ozone as a replacement for chemical disinfectants in
aircraft lavatories, suggesting its adoption can lead
to improved hygiene standards and enhanced
passenger health-related safety. | en_US |
