All of those break down the mask fibers or screw up the electrostatic qualities used to grab particles. There have been studies on it, but there's not really an ideal way that doesn't damage the filtering capacity over time.
- bootlooped 7y agoFrom what I understand the virus breaks down with time at room temperature anyway, so you could possibly just get away with tossing them in a box for 10 days (or whatever time gets you 99+% virus breakdown). That would have minimal negative effect on the filter material and elastic straps.
