puhdistusten

Puhdistusten is the genitive plural form of the Finnish noun puhdistus, which denotes purification or cleaning processes. As a genitive form, puhdistusten is used to describe a relationship to purifications, for example when specifying what aspects belong to or are related to purifications: "puhdistusten vaikutus ympäristöön" (the effect of the purifications on the environment).

Puhdistus itself has several senses: industrial and environmental purification (water or air purification, soil remediation), medical or hygienic cleaning, and data or information cleansing in digital contexts. In each of these domains, puhdistusten is used to refer to multiple purification events or procedures.

The word is formed by the root puhdistus plus the genitive plural suffix -sten. It is not a standalone concept but a grammatical form that appears in phrases describing purifications collectively or possessively.

Common collocations include puhdistusten kustannukset (costs of the purifications), puhdistusten vaikutus (the effect of the purifications), and puhdistusten tarve (the need for purifications). In technical writing, the phrase may precede nouns such as toimenpiteet (measures), mittaukset (measurements), or prosedureiden related terms.

- Puhdistusten vaikutus ympäristöön on monitahoinen. (The effect of the purifications on the environment is multifaceted.)
