1. A method for producing at least one disinfecting agent, the method comprising:
flowing a gas through a reactor, wherein the reactor comprises a reaction zone;
introducing an oil into the gas flowing through the reactor,
wherein the oil is optionally electrolyzed to remove glycerol prior to the introduction into the gas flowing through the reactor;
reacting the oil in the reaction zone of the reactor to produce at least one disinfecting agent;
optionally concentrating the at least one disinfecting agent; and
optionally storing the at least one disinfecting agent.
