I have a small blower that has been polluted with powder with fragrance in it,(we believe baby power). It has been disassembled and washed with industrial detergent and hot water. Even the encased blower control board. It was then reassembled and run. An obvious perfume odor is still present and polluting the exhaust air.
It was suggested there are only so many molecules of fragrance available, so if they're all lost thru attrition the detectable odor will be gone also. On that basis the unit was run full blast 24/7 for 60 days. There has been no detectable odor reduction!
We have a vacuum chamber and are wondering if an extended session in it would cause the remaining odorant to out gas, or boil off, or if this would be unlikely to work?
