Abstract: There is provided a system and method of cleaning surfaces of an enclosable environment of a contamination comprising a malodor, or a microbial and viral load. The method includes the steps of placing water and a solid or gel pack into a container and generating a gaseous cleaning agent by agitating the water in the container. The agitation accelerates the release of the gaseous cleaning agent from the solid or gel pack. The gaseous cleaning agent, exemplified by Chlorine Dioxide, exiting from the container spreads throughout the environment. The gaseous cleaning agent treats the malodor, or microbial or viral load, in the environment.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for remediating buildings damaged by floodwaters. The methods include removing floodwater-damaged wall cladding to expose underlying structure.

The apparatus also includes memory storing instructions and a processor communicatively coupled to the set of sensors and the memory, the processor configured to execute the instructions to cause the apparatus to identify one or more occurrences of a contamination event based on a comparison of the a characteristic and a detection threshold for the first characteristic of the contaminants in the air; and for each of the one or more occurrences of the contamination event, generate a data entry including a second characteristic. The second characteristic is usable to determine the source of the contaminants in the air.

Abstract: There is provided a system and method of cleaning surfaces of an enclosable environment of a contamination comprising a microbial and viral load. The method includes the steps of sealing the enclosable environment and placing water, and a solid or gel pack, into a container and generating a vortex the container by rotating an impeller. The agitation causes the solid or gel pack to release a gaseous cleaning agent. An air-borne spray exiting from the container spreads throughout the enclosable environment to contact the surfaces to be cleaned within the enclosable environment. The enclosable environment is maintained closed for an effective time period while the air-borne spray dwells on the surfaces to eliminate or substantially reduce the load of the contamination.

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus, system, and method of treating a condition in an enclosable environment. The method includes adding water and a formulation into a container and closing the enclosable environment with the container there inside. The water and formulation are agitated via a magnetic impeller, thereby causing a release of a gaseous cleaning agent from the formulation. An air-borne spray exiting from the container spreads throughout the enclosable environment to contact the air and surfaces to be cleaned, thereby decontaminating, and removing malodor from within the enclosable environment. The enclosable environment is maintained closed for an effective time period while the cleaning agent treats the enclosable space.

Abstract: A method and corresponding apparatus for cleaning an enclosed space by in situ generation and distribution of hypochlorous acid. The method includes selecting an apparatus comprising a container, placing the apparatus in the enclosed space, activating generation of hypochlorous acid from the container of the apparatus, distributing hypochlorous acid throughout the enclosed space as the hypochlorous acid is generated; and allowing the distributed hypochlorous acid to dwell in the enclosed space for an effective time.
