Experimental Study on Diffusion of Vaporous Hydrogen Peroxide

Abstract:

In this paper, the concentration of Vaporous hydrogen peroxide was measured by titanium oxalate method in different location of 40 feet container. Results show that with the increase of the distance between the measurement locations and vapor outlet, the concentrations of vaporous hydrogen peroxide gradually reduce, longer duration of decontamination, the concentration is slowly rising. Vaporous hydrogen peroxide can effectively diffuse in the contained space, it can be used for the internal space decontamination.
