'Green' disinfection.Advanced Vapor Technologies' TANCS[R] Steam Vapor low-moisture system is a fast, chemical-free, water-based "green" method for destroying bacteria, viruses, mold, and hard-to-kill pathogens in long-term care long-term care (LTC), n the provision of medical, social, and personal care services on a recurring or continuing basis to persons with chronic physical or mental disorders. environments.
