An amazing thematic topic especially considering the woes the world is facing now, COVID19. The chemical product I can think of at this very worrying times is the HAND SANITIZER. There are so many ways of doing or making this amazing substance and it poses no harm or danger to the environment.
I have practically done some before using aloe Vera extracts, fragrance and alcohol (Industrial). I had all of these at home so I decided to Do It Myself and the results were amazing. It is therefore very easy to make on a smaller scale; it costs less but ensures a very high standard of hygiene among individuals who use it. So I have decided to list a few benefits of hand sanitizers I could come up with;
1. It ensures cleanliness; It kills germs up to 99.9% when used appropriately.
2. It is very portable; Even though some come in quite huge containers, majority of it are pocket-sized and this makes the hand sanitizer very portable.
3. It ensures less risk of a disease; This is very important considering what we are all facing together today of COVID19, using hand sanitizers can help kill the coronavirus and lessen the its spread. The same applies to any disease or infection that could be transmitted through contact.
4. It improves hand-skin texture; Though this has no scientific prove yet, suggestions say that since the hand sanitizers are alcohol based, they could actually help soften the tough texture of the hand. It feels great to touch a hand that feels soft and it also improves bad odour the hand might have. The fragrance plays a good role in taking care of the hand odour.
This product causes no harm to the environment and I think we can find a way of making it a portable pet and friend. Remember to stay home, wash your hands, use Hand Sanitizers, and stay safe.
Green Cheers from Ghana. |

Hello Justice Obiri, this is mentor Taehyun!
Thank you for a report about your own experiment! Hand sanitizer is a really hot item in the whole world. Almost all marketplaces sanitizer is now sold out. Because of the powerful and easy characteristics of hand sanitizer, people buy more sanitizer in this pandemic situation. Many good points can be provided with the hand sanitizer as you have said, but the most powerful sanitization method is to clean your hand with soap! Because tap water is containing a little bit of chloride for the water sanitizing object, it can be really effective with soap.
Thank you for the report!
Take good care of your health!

@Sang Su Mentor, in my part of the world precisely Ghana, we make alcohol from fallen palm nut trees, first we get a palm wine then we distill the palm wine to get the main alcohol. I have done it before and I can say boldly that it is environmentally safe. But that not withstanding, you have given me an eye opener to look beyond my environment and consider how other parts of the world also get things done. I will definitely research on alcohol production beyond Ghana and even possibly write a free report about it, Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Justice Obiri

Hello Justice Obiri, this is a mentor Sang Su Lee.
Hand sanitizer!! What a nice topic related to the hot issue nowadays! Hand sanitizer is really helping a lot of people not infected by COVID-19. The major content of it is ethyl alcohol (70%) and this has a good sanitizing effect. In fact, many laboratories dealing with biological experiments use this chemicals.
However, I slightly disagree with your opinion stating that hand sanitizer is perfectly environmental friendly. Producing alcohol can harm the environment if you research about this. I think you can add about this information!
Thank you for your report!
