The low-pressure high-volume approach is designed to rapidly decontaminate a large number of people. Using a gentle spray with a large flow of decon solution covers broad areas quickly, washing away contaminants efficiently while minimizing the risk of aerosolizing agents or forcing contaminants deeper into skin or fabrics. This makes it ideal for mass decon where speed and throughput are crucial. It isn’t about deeply neutralizing every residue or breaking through protective barriers, and it isn’t about prolonging exposure; the goal is fast, effective removal of contaminants so many individuals can be processed promptly.
