Yeongdeungpo-gu Disinfects Government Office Using Donated Disinfectant Generator

[Suwon Ilbo=Seo Dong-young Reporter] Yeongdeungpo-gu announced on the 12th that it is actively utilizing disinfectant generators donated free of charge by Seams Bionics Co., Ltd. for government office disinfection.

Seams Bionics Co., Ltd., a tenant company at Deltaflexis, decided to provide cleaning agents and generators manufactured by the company free of charge until the end of the COVID-19 pandemic for COVID-19 prevention.

Currently, a disinfectant generator is installed on the second floor of the district office. The disinfectant generator dilutes 40ℓ of weakly acidic hypochlorous acid water concentrate at a 1:200 ratio to generate 8,000ℓ of disinfectant. This is sufficient to use 2,000 units of 4ℓ disinfectant sprayers simultaneously.

Weakly acidic hypochlorous acid water is obtained through electrolysis of hydrochloric acid or saline solution, generating active oxygen that provides sterilization and disinfection effects. It is environmentally friendly as it reverts to water over time.

The district office has each department and dong office regularly take the generated disinfectant to conduct intensive disinfection after the end of civil petition services and to regularly disinfect door handles and other surfaces.

Song Young-wan, Chief of Yeongdeungpo-gu Office, said, "I hope the disinfectant generator will be actively utilized and full efforts made in disinfection management to relieve residents' concerns and prevent the spread of COVID-19."
