Introduction to Fumigation

            Fumigation is a process that uses the chemical reaction of fumigants to eliminate living organisms while they are in a gaseous or vapor state within a sealed structure that can contain the gas without leakage. The chemicals used in fumigation are called fumigants, which are chemicals that remain in a gaseous state at appropriate temperatures and pressures. When used at the correct concentration and duration, they can kill living organisms through their respiratory systems. Commonly used fumigants include Aluminum Phosphide (Phosphine) and Methyl Bromide.

            Fumigation is a critical process in various industries, including agriculture, transportation, food, and wood and furniture manufacturing. This is because fumigation effectively prevents and eradicates pest insects that can cause damage to goods and raw materials. It helps maintain the quality of products for longer periods, prevents the spread of insect-borne diseases, and reduces the risk of insect outbreaks by fumigating products before export, ensuring that goods are safe and reach their destination in good condition.

            However, fumigation poses health and safety risks, so practitioners must be well-trained and knowledgeable. They must strictly adhere to procedures and safety measures to prevent any potential hazards.
