Patent ID: 10885497

Abstract:
A system monitors the distribution of a disinfectant having an expiration. The system has distribution containers and use containers, each having a volume for dispensing the disinfectant. A reader of the system can read identifiers associated with the containers, and a database of the system can associate the volumes and the expiration of the disinfectant contained in each of the containers. During monitoring, processing equipment of the system tracks each of the volumes of the disinfectant, the expiration of the disinfectant, and the identifiers of the containers. For example, the processing equipment can log the dispensing of the disinfectant from the distribution container to the use containers and can log any amount of the dispensed disinfectant in the use containers that was noted used. Additionally, the processing equipment can determine that the distribution container or any of the user containers have disinfectant past the expiration.
