Sector:
“The innovative implementation of a new high-volume pallet washing process which achieves equal or better disinfection with reduced environmental impact. The process utilizes HOCl a 100% natural, all-purpose sanitising and cleaning solution that is EPA certified as a powerful daily disinfectant. In addition to eliminating any use of caustic and potentially irritating chemicals, the new process will require up to 96% less energy.
RM2’s new wash process is also environmentally- friendly. First, upon completion of the process, the HOCl reverts back to plain water (H2O) with low concentrations of salt, and the wastewater can easily and safely be disposed of. Unlike caustic chemicals used in traditional sanitization processes, no personal protection equipment (PPE) is required to handle the HOCl, and there are no noxious or irritating fumes in the air. Finally, the new process is effective at low temperatures, resulting in an estimated 96% reduction in energy requirements. The energy reduction at RM2’s Arkansas wash site alone is enough to power 30 average US households per year.”
