Hi Joe,

 

We just implemented a new program for management of peroxide forming materials. We are using the low range Quantofix test strips, and are doing a pass/fail instead of threshold value.  We are doing that for all classes of peroxide forming materials.

 

All the best,

 

Kristi

Does anyone have a testing program in which peroxide forming chemicals are tested?  If so, what methodology are you using?  Do you have a threshold value for disposal, and is it for all peroxide formers or are there different thresholds specific to certain chemicals?

 

Thanks for your help.
