Decontamination Methods - Chemical Removal - Inactivation

One of the methods of decontamination is inactivation. This includes chemical detoxification and disinfection or sterilization. Unlike solidification, it does not necessarily alter the state of the chemical and convert it into a solid.

Chemical detoxification includes the following:

  • Halogen stripping
  • Neutralization
  • Oxidation/reduction
  • Thermal degradation

Disinfection/sterilization includes the following:

  • Chemical disinfection
  • Dry heat sterilization
  • Gas/vapor sterilization
