Electrostatic Decontamination System

Electrostatic Decontamination System

The proliferation of CB weapons makes it imperative to develop new technologies to provide effective, safe, and efficient decontamination systems to facilitate the timely restoration of operations following a contamination incident. Clean Earth Technologies' portable Electrostatic Decontamination System (EDS) uses a patent-pending decontamination solution, activated by ultraviolet light, to rapidly and effectively neutralize chemical and biological agents with minimal environmental impact and logistical burden. The design is being further improved for increased manufacturability, maintainability, and ruggedness to meet the wide range of operational environments encountered by emergency responders and DoD forces. The EDS is procurement-ready for DoD and other Federal agencies and will be ready for purchase by State and local emergency responders pending EPA registration.
