    Alpet PERA FC 22% Antimicrobial Solution FAQs

    Can peracetic acid be used in organic food production?

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) allows the use of peracetic acid in making organic food. To meet the standards for organic products, it is important to follow certain rules about how much to use, how to apply it and how much residue is allowed.

    How does peracetic acid compare to chlorine-based sanitizers?

    Peracetic acid works better as a germ-fighter against more types of germs than chlorine-based cleaners. It doesn’t leave much behind, is safer to use and breaks down into more eco-friendly substances.

    What concentrations of peracetic acid are effective for sanitization?

    Effective levels of peracetic acid for sanitizing can change based on the specific use, the germs you want to target and the contact time. It is important to check the manufacturer's guidelines and follow the rules to find the right concentration. This ensures the best results for killing germs and control.

    Is peracetic acid (PAA) unsafe for food processing because it is a strong oxidizer?

    While PAA is indeed a strong oxidizer, it is not unsafe when used correctly. PAA breaks down into safe byproducts like acetic acid, water and oxygen. When handled properly according to safety guidelines, PAA poses a very low risk in food processing.

    Is peracetic acid highly toxic and unsafe due to its strong oxidizing properties?

    The safety of peracetic acid, like any chemical, depends on how it is used and handled. High concentrations of PAA can be corrosive and require careful handling. However, the diluted solutions commonly used in food processing are safe when handled according to guidelines. PAA breaks down into non-toxic substances, making it suitable for food contact surfaces.
