3 Types of EDS Systems Thermal Batch Thermal Batch Redundant Thermal Continuous Thermal Continuous Enclosed Chemical Batch Chemical Batch Redundant Chemical Continuous Thermochemical Batch Non-Redundant Batch System Configurations Effluent Decontamination Systems (EDS) can be configured in many ways. A few common configurations are shown below: Two process tanks Lowest ceiling height requirement Redundant Redundant One collection tank and one process tank Piggyback orientation Greatest ceiling height requirement Smallest footprint One collection tank and one process tank Side-by-side orientation Lower ceiling height requirement Three or more process tanks One collection and two or more process tanks

4 Thermal Batch Most common type of EDS Meets the 121 C Standard (250 F); higher temperatures available though not recommended Available with or without significant agitation and solids destruction Available in multiple types of stainless steel Many configurations available Standard designs available to decrease engineering costs Redundancy options available Exceptional Solids Handling

5 Thermal Continuous Flow Approximately the same cost as a thermal batch system No pressure vessel or associated risks Energy recovery Operates on 5% of the energy requirement of a thermal batch system Can achieve very high treatment temperature (up to 150 C/302 F) Cooling by regeneration eliminates the need for other cooling means (i.e. the need for cold water, tower water, or chilled water is eliminated) Can be designed to work in the presence of significant solids Available in steam or electrically heated models Can be built from duplex or super-austenitic grade stainless steels for extreme corrosion resistance Many configurations available, from 4 LPM to 250 LPM (1-66 gpm) capacities Gold standard for Thermal EDS efficiency The future thermal technology for an energy conscious society Standard designs available to decrease engineering costs Redundancy options available Energy Recovery Reliability Safety Lower Operating Cost

6 Chemical Batch Less costly than thermal systems Lowest energy consumption; no cooling required Significant agitation is a standard feature Works with a variety of chemicals; sodium hypochlorite is the standard Very rapid sterilization; two turns per hour Small systems, small footprint, large performance Many configurations available Gold standard for EDS reliability Standard designs available to decrease engineering costs Neutralization and ph control available Redundancy options available Simplified Operation Low Maintenance Low Capital & Operation Cost Lowest Energy Consumption

7 Chemical Continuous Flow Lowest cost of all systems Lowest energy consumption; no cooling required Works with a variety of chemicals; sodium hypochlorite is the standard Flow and contact time are variable Basic systems do not have a PLC; PLC-operated versions available Developed primarily for container labs and developing country applications We build the best OEM solutions for developing country and modular applications Standard designs available to decrease engineering costs Neutralization and ph control available Redundancy options available Same Benefits As Chemical Batch Lowest Capital Cost

8 Thermochemical Batch Lower temperature below 98 C (208 F) Lower energy use, lower cooling medium use Significantly lower cost of operation Longer life and reduced maintenance Works with temperature/materials compatible chemicals Can achieve sterility with or without heat, or with or without chemical Automatic flexible redundancy: System will recognize if heat or chemical source is out of order, and automatically modify cycle to achieve sterility Available in multiple types of stainless steel Has been validated at 93 C in BSL-4 facility Many configurations available Standard designs available to decrease engineering costs Redundancy options available Automatic Flexible Redundancy

9 Undersink Batch Space-saving solution for labs Can handle one or more sinks Available as Thermal, Chemical, or Thermochemical batch EDS systems Short lead time for time sensitive projects Ideal for mobile and/or modular labs Standard designs available to decrease engineering costs Redundancy options available Custom Unique Solutions

11 Bio-65 Single basket lab systems Capacity: Cycle Time: 8-20 hours Laboratory system 1 to 65 lb (min max) Includes a single basket for an individual animal or communal cycle User selects the size of the cycle (low or high) Can process a single-animal cycle Bio-110 Single basket lab systems Capacity: Cycle Time: 8-20 hours Laboratory system 1 to 110 lb (min max) Includes a single basket for an individual animal or communal cycle User selects the size of the cycle (low or high) Can process a single-animal cycle Custom Single basket lab systems Capacity: 65-10,000 lb (min max) Custom systems available in any size Cycle Time: High Temperature 6-8 hours Low Temperature 8-20 hours Laboratory system Includes a single basket for an individual large animal or communal cycle User selects the size of the cycle (low, med, or high)

12 Alkaline Hydrolysis Available in low temperature (~93-98 C/ F ) and high temperature (150 C/302 F) versions Both versions produce the same end product: 100% sterile, and free of prion proteins (MALDI-TOF and Amino Acid Assay confirmed) High temperature versions operate at 4 bar pressure, and produce shorter cycle times (2 or more cycles per day) Low temperature versions operate at atmospheric pressure, but require longer cycle times (1-2 cycles per day depending on system size) Low Temperature systems represent a tremendous advantage in equipment life, safety, equipment costs, operation costs, and sustainability Steam or electrically heated Wide variety of sizes available, ranging from 65 to 10,000lb (30 to 4,500kg) in capacity Containment systems with pass-through capability available Combination EDS/Alkaline Hydrolysis systems available Can be easily integrated into modular labs All systems feature Bio-Response s exclusively superior propeller agitation, no agitation pumps, and no troublesome submerged seals making these systems a joy to own, operate, and maintain over the long haul We ship more alkaline hydrolysis systems than all other manufacturers combined 90% Less Energy Used than Incineration 0 Emissions of Harmful Greenhouse Gasses Method of Choice For Biocontainment Facilities No EPA Air Quality Permits Required Over 17 Years of Experience Making AH Equipment
