ABSTRACT

To safely and consistently process materials, certain process operations must be protected within a clean room environment. A clean room is considered a room, or contained area, in which the environment is controlled to mitigate particulate and bio-burden in the

air as well as minimize the potential of accumulation of such contaminants on surfaces. Many steps are taken to ensure that the integrity of the clean room environment remains intact for the protection of any process operation. Any breach in the process or the clean room environment in which it resides offers a major source for potential contamination.
