Director, RDT&E First Line Technology Chantilly, Virginia, United States
Participants will be presented with the latest developments in decontamination methods with a focus on Hybrid Decon. New technology recently developed by the Department of Defense is now available to first responders and other agencies, and a new technique known as Hybrid Decon can simplify many common HazMat situations while providing higher margin of safety than traditional methods. This class will be hands-on, with chemical demonstrations, neutralization of real Fentanyl, and an opportunity to see Hybrid Decontamination in action. Threats have evolved. Decon hasn't. Until now.
Learning Objectives:
Recognize the physical and chemical properties of types of contamination and how that impacts decontamination decision making.
Identify the key components and characteristics of a Hybrid Decontamination system.
Utilize Hybrid Decontamination tools in an operational environment
