Since 225 was presented technology has continued to develop and you can now find catalytic systems which operate at room temperature. This has the dual benefit of lower running costs and improved safety given the flammability of ethylene oxide. The main problem with lowering the temperature is that it slows down the reaction requiring buffering.

With the rapid improvements in catalytic technology giving cheaper and better solutions we expect that a high percentage of new systems will dispose of the EtO before emission.
