Most sanitation technologies are driven by electrical power — motors, pumps. heating and cooling elements, etc.  The trajectory of product innovation, installation and maintenance practices are guided by electrical power capacity and availability.

Article 422 of the National Electrical Code covers safe wiring practices and is on the front end of new revision cycle.  Comments on Public Input for the 2026 Revision will be received until 28 August 2024

Legionellosis Risk Management

The human mind evolved to believe in the gods.

It did not evolve to believe in biology.

The American Society of Heating and Refrigeration Engineers  publishes two Legionella-related standards:

ASHRAE 188: Legionellosis: Risk Management for Building Water Systems

ASHRAE 12:  Managing (Minimizing) the Risk of Legionellosis Associated With Building Water Systems  (Maintained continuously)

Legionella risk is a domain rich in possibilities for lawsuits so we should not be surprised that best practice titles in the ASHRAE suite — and other standards bibliographies — go unstable with new findings.  We encourage facility units in education communities to contribute data to technical committees and to participate directly.  you may access titles open for public comment at the link below:

ASHRAE Public Review Draft Standards

ASHRAE runs one of the best public consultation facilities in the United States.  Its titles appear in most of our daily colloquia; this one best practice titles are on the standing agendas of our Energy, Mechanical, Water 200/Water 400 and Risk colloquia.  See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.

IoT-based Hand Hygiene Dispensers

S. Dhanasekar, et al

Sri Eshwar College of Engineering

Abstract:  Coronavirus flare-up chances human existence and it challenges the general wellbeing. Hand cleanliness, an extremely basic activity, is very much acknowledged to be one of the essential methods of decreasing medical care-related disease and of improving patient security. These days wearing masks, utilizing hand sanitizers, checking temperatures are being done in all places, and so forth yet at the same time in many spots individuals utilize conventional sanitizer gadgets which build the spread of microorganisms. Normally an individual is in charge of observing the body temperature and sanitizer level by taking a chance with his life. This survey Internet of Things (IoT) based hand sanitizer dispenser with temperature and level monitoring distinguishes the presence of the people and gives out alerts in form of the human voice to sanitize their hands if the dispenser goes unrecognized. Furthermore, we have a contactless sanitizer dispenser to stay away from contact among humans and dispensers which will keep us away from the further spread of infection and microorganisms.
