Abstract:
A system of dispensing premeasured concentrations of a solution at various sites in a facility, the system comprising:providing at least one dispensing bag at a first one of the various sites in the facility, the dispensing bag having a sealed concentrate pouch and a mixing pouch, the concentrate pouch having a fluid tight seal separating the concentrate pouch from the mixing pouch, and the concentrate pouch containing a base material at a first concentration, wherein upon the introduction of diluent into the mixing pouch, and upon the rupturing of the fluid tight seal, the concentrate pouch and the mixing pouch will be in communication with each other, and the diluent and the base material can mix to form a solution in which the concentration of the base material will be at a second, lesser concentration than the first concentration; introducing a diluent into the mixing pouch and rupturing the fluid tight seal of the dispensing bag to obtain a premeasured concentration of the solution at the first one of the various sites; dispensing the solution at the first one of the various sites; providing at least one dispensing bag at a second one of the various sites and performing said steps of introducing the diluent into the mixing pouch, rupturing the fluid tight seal of the dispensing bag, and dispensing the solution at the second one of the various sites; and providing at least one dispensing bag at subsequent ones of the various sites and repeating said steps of introducing the diluent into the mixing pouch, rupturing the fluid tight seal of the dispensing bag, and dispensing the solution at each subsequent site.
