The difference between industrial cleanroom and biotech cleanroom

Today , with the increasing development of science and technology, clean rooms have become key facilities in many industrial and scientific research fields. However, despite their similar names, industrial cleanrooms and biotech cleanrooms have significant differences in control objects, applicable environments and application fields.

1. Control objects: The main objects controlled by industrial clean rooms are inanimate particles, such as dust particles. The purpose is to prevent these particles from contaminating the operating objects. The biotech cleanroom focuses on controlling living particles, mainly microorganisms (such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, etc.), with the purpose of preventing these microorganisms from contaminating the operating objects and the surrounding environment.

2. Applicable environment: Industrial cleanrooms are widely used in precision industry, aerospace industry, chemical industry, atomic energy industry, printing industry and photographic industry. Biotech cleanrooms are mainly used in medical (such as clean operating rooms, clean wards), biopharmaceuticals, experimental animal breeding, biosafety laboratories, health, epidemic prevention and quarantine and other fields.

3. Application areas: Industrial cleanrooms are mainly used in the manufacturing and processing of inanimate objects or products, such as integrated circuits, optical fibers, films, etc. Biotech clean rooms are mainly used for research, production and processing of living substances or products, such as medicines, food, biological products, etc.

In addition, the applicable environments of industrial cleanrooms and biotech cleanrooms are also different. Industrial cleanrooms usually operate at normal temperature and pressure, while biotech cleanrooms may require special temperature and humidity control, or even a negative pressure environment to prevent the escape of microorganisms.The application fields of the two are also very different. Industrial cleanrooms are mainly used for manufacturing and processing inanimate objects or products, such as integrated circuits, optical fibers, films, etc. Biotech cleanrooms are mainly used for research, production and processing of living substances or products, such as medicines, food, biological products, etc.

In general, although industrial cleanrooms and biotech cleanrooms are both committed to creating a highly clean environment, they have significant differences in control objects, applicable environments, and application fields. Understanding these differences can help us better design and manage both types of cleanrooms to meet a variety of different needs and challenges. When selecting and using, we need to choose the appropriate cleanroom type according to the specific application fields and needs to achieve the best results.
