Protect the vulnerable
Challenge
Protection from COVID-19 requires routine and frequent use of a surface disinfectant; however, disinfectant is unobtainable to billions of people globally.
Solution
Electro-Clean is a low-cost production process for a powerful chlorine-based disinfecting solution that has been approved by WHO[1], EPA[2], and CDC[3].
Access
The disinfecting solution is produced using globally available low-cost materials, with instructions provided online and through local partners.
