Abstract

Large-scale biological contamination incidents pose unique yet significant challenges to remediation operations. Previous incidents have demonstrated the utility of readily available commercial and municipal equipment for conducting remediation tasks. Preidentification and evaluation of such equipment could reduce lag time for response initiation and enhance overall response effectiveness and efficiency. The current study aimed to identify commercial and municipal equipment that could be beneficial in wide-area biological remediation operations. Equipment were identified by market research, their utility was assessed by a group of subject matter experts, and a subset of those equipment was observed under operational conditions in a realistic urban environment. Observations and feedback from demonstration participants are presented within the article. This information is intended to support rapid decision-making following large-scale biological incidents, broaden the universe of potentially useful equipment to support the response, enhance response operations, and reduce the impact on the public.

城市生物净化商业和市政设备的论证和评估

大规模生物污染事件给修复工作带来了独特而重大的挑战。以往的事故表明，现成的商业和市政设备在执行修复任务时非常有用。对此类设备进行预先识别和评估可以缩短启动响应的滞后时间，提高整体响应效果和效率。本研究旨在确定可用于大面积生物修复行动的商用和市政设备。通过市场调研确定了设备，由一组主题专家对其效用进行了评估，并在现实的城市环境中对这些设备的子集进行了操作条件下的观察。本文介绍了演示参与者的观察结果和反馈意见。这些信息旨在支持大规模生物事件发生后的快速决策，扩大潜在有用设备的范围以支持响应，加强响应行动，并减少对公众的影响。
