The new AST Boaz ETO recovery system fits into Picarro ETO monitoring systems to reduce ETO use and costs while ensuring regulatory compliance
Santa Clara, California.,, January 30, 2025 / Prnewswire / – Picarro Inc., a world leader in gas monitoring, analysis and services, has been selected by Advanced Sterilization Technology Inc. (AST), to allow a complete solution that will allow sterilization installations Recycling and reusing ethylene oxide (ETO) while respecting and exceeding regulations on emissions. The AST Boaz Cryogenic Reduction System and Rehabilitation captures and converts ETO Gazous into 100% Liquid ETO while Picarro systems monitor emissions in and around the sterilization installation. Systems work together to control emissions and maintain regulatory compliance.
“Our patented and awarded boaz system worked in four pallet sterilizers in Taiwan For more than two years. It has been shown to recover 90% of the ETO gas, resulting in significant financial savings in the cost of equipment, daily operating costs and total ETO emissions control costs, “said Denny ChristensenCEO of new US sales operations of AST. “By integrating Picarro’s ultra-sensitive ETO surveillance systems with our Boaz, we can give mutual customers additional confidence in their ability to rationalize optimization and compliance of processes.”
“With increasing pressure to meet the requirements for controlling and monitoring ETO increasingly strict under EPA Neshap and Fifra, the sterilization industry needs emission management solutions that provide data confidence, “said Dave MillerVice-president of the activity of Picarro environmental solutions. “By taking advantage of the main Picarro Industrial VOC monitoring technology, AST helps to stimulate innovation essential for optimization and compliance of processes, giving ETO sterilization suppliers a powerful and reliable solution to raise emerging regulatory challenges. “
AST BOAZ system: CAPEX savings, reduction in the use of ETOs, costs of lower utility
AST Boaz technology will soon be available worldwide and is ideal for installations that use pure ETO for sterilization of medical devices. The notable advantages of the Boaz system are:
- Considerably reduces the cost of equipment for controlling ETO emissions.
- Considerably reduces the cost of ETO used to sterilize as 90% of ETO gas from the sterilization process is recovered.
- Considerably reduces the operating cost of the ETO emission control utility for the control of ETO emissions.
- Modifies the requirements to meet the requirements of EPA, because 90% of ETO emissions are eliminated. This changes the EPA compliance requirements due to a 90% reduction in real ETO emissions.
- Environmental green, much better for the environment, because much less ETO is used.
