Use Indigo® high-range 0–3000 ppm peracetic acid strips to assess spill zones, guide PPE use, and document cleanup safety during chemical decontamination.

Accidental spills of peracetic acid (PAA) in industrial or healthcare environments require rapid assessment to ensure worker safety and proper cleanup. Indigo® 0–3000 ppm PAA test strips are ideal for this application, with clear color blocks at 500, 1000, 1500, and 3000 ppm, enabling safety officers to quickly determine spill strength and define containment measures. Fast, on-site verification helps determine the level of personal protective equipment (PPE) required and supports compliant hazardous waste handling.

During chemical spill response and decontamination, it is essential to document PAA concentrations in affected areas. These test strips provide real-time spill zone assessment, supporting OSHA hazard communication protocols, emergency response teams, and industrial hygiene programs. By identifying whether a spill remains at high-strength disinfection levels (≥1500 ppm) or has diluted below hazardous thresholds, responders can select the appropriate neutralization strategy, PPE, and disposal method.

Best Practices for PAA Spill Response Using 3000ppm PAA Test Strips

  • Assess the Scene First: Use PAA test strips (0–3000 ppm) at spill edges to confirm dilution levels before responders advance.
  • PPE is Mandatory: Chemical-resistant gloves, goggles/face shield, and respiratory protection if vapors are suspected.
  • Ventilation: Open windows, use fume hoods, or employ portable exhaust systems when indoors.
  • Neutralization Protocols: Apply appropriate neutralizers (e.g., sodium bicarbonate solution) for contained spills.
  • Verify Dilution Before Re-entry: Use strips to confirm that residual PAA is <3000 ppm (ideally approaching 0) before allowing unprotected personnel to enter.
  • Waste Disposal: Collect neutralized residues in properly labeled hazardous waste containers for EPA/DOT-compliant disposal.
