Article Synopsis
- The project developed a prototype of an Enhanced Contaminated Human Remains Pouch (ECHRP) that can self-decontaminate, enhancing safety for emergency response teams.
- The pouch features a special absorbent liner made of reactive nanocellulose, which reduces toxic chemical concentrations, along with tested nanomaterials that have biocidal properties.
- The successful prototype effectively protects against dangerous substances like sulfur mustard and Soman, offering significant advantages in safety for those handling contaminated human remains.
