Abstract
Disinfecting method for disinfecting a room or a surface, comprising the steps of: a) providing a fluid comprising at least one organic compound obtainable from natural substances, wherein the organic compound is provided in an non-polar or polar medium, or in a mixture of non-polar and polar media; b) mixing the fluid with a gas such that fluid particles are suspended in the gas, and an aerosol of fluid particles is formed; c) directing a flow of the aerosol formed in step b) on said surface or into said room.

A disinfecting method for disinfecting a room or a surface, comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a fluid comprising at least one organic compound obtainable from natural substances, wherein the organic compound is provided in a non-polar or polar medium, or in a mixture of non-polar and polar media,
- wherein the at least one organic compound is chosen from the group consisting of:
- azulene, the essential oil of thyme, the essential oil of cloves, a resin from plants, d-limonene, orange oil, derivates of the above organic compounds, and mixtures of the above organic compounds,
- wherein the at least one organic compound is provided in lime water or in a mixture of a non-polar medium and lime water,
- wherein the organic compound is present in an amount of 5-50 wt. % of the fluid;
- b) mixing the fluid with a gas such that fluid particles are suspended in the gas, and an aerosol of fluid particles is formed;
- c) directing a flow of the aerosol formed in step b) on said surface or into said room.
A disinfecting fluid composition, comprising:
- at least one organic compound obtainable from natural substances, which organic compound is present in a non-polar or polar medium, or in a mixture of non-polar and polar media,
- and wherein the at least one organic compound is chosen from the group consisting of:
- azulene, the essential oil of thyme, the essential oil of cloves, a resin from plants, d-limonene, orange oil, derivates of the above organic compounds, and mixtures of the above organic compounds,
- wherein the at least one organic compound is provided in lime water or in a mixture of a non-polar medium and lime water,
- wherein the organic compound is present in an amount of 5-50 wt. % of the fluid composition.
A disinfecting method for disinfecting a room or a surface, comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a fluid comprising at least one organic compound obtainable from natural substances,
- wherein the at least one organic compound is provided in water or in a mixture of a non-polar medium and water,
- wherein the at least one organic compound is chosen from the group consisting of:
- citric acid, derivates of citric acid, and mixtures of the above organic compounds,
- wherein the organic compound is present in an amount of 5-50 wt. % of the fluid;
- b) mixing the fluid with a gas such that fluid particles are suspended in the gas, and an aerosol of fluid particles is formed;
- c) directing a flow of the aerosol formed in step b) on said surface or into said room;
- wherein subsequent to step b) and prior to step c), the fluid particles of the aerosol of which the mean particle size is 1 micrometer or above, are separated from the aerosol.
