Clean Room is an environment, typically also used in scientific research that has a low level of environmental pollutants such as dust, aerosol particles, microbes and chemical vapours.
Types:
1. HEPA Filters: These remove airborne particles to maintain air cleanliness.
2. Air Showers: They disinfect the workers entering clean rooms by removing particles from clothing.
3. Laminar Flow Hoods: They provide a sterile work area for handling sensitive materials.
4. Clean Room Garments: These are specialized clothing worn to prevent the workers from getting infected.
Applications:
1. Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Ensures the production of sterile injectable drugs and vaccines.
2. Biotechnology: Protects sensitive biological materials from contamination during research and production.
3. Microelectronics: Maintains ultra clean environments for semiconductor fabrication.
4. Food Production: Prevents pollution in the manufacturing of sensitive food products.
