Activated Carbon and HEPA Air Purifiers andPhotocatalytic filter
Activated Carbon and HEPA Air Purifiers
Activated carbon is among the most effectivematerials known today for treating airborne chemicals, gases andodor.It's used widely by the military, hospitals, scientificand industrial facilities, and disaster response units for its safeand powerful adsorbing properties.
To be truly efficient, activated carbonfilters need to provide enough dwell time for pollutants to beadsorbed.This means that larger, deeper bed carbon filterswill adsorb more airborne pollutants.
When used in combination, activated carbonfilters and HEPA filters (high efficiency particle filters), offerthe most comprehensive air purification available to treat airborneparticles, chemicals, gases and odor.
Air purifiers and air cleaners with this technology are especiallysuited for allergy relief, asthma prevention, multiple chemicalsensitivity, cigar and cigarette odor removal, pet odor removal,newborn baby health and general home and office use.
HEPA Filtration in Air Purifiers
HEPA is an acronym for "high efficiency particulate air". This typeof air filter can remove at least 99.97% of all airborne particles0.3 microns in size (the most difficult to filter). Particles thatare larger or smaller are generally filtered with even greaterefficiency in most air purifiers.
Ultraviolet Light in Air Purifiers
Ultraviolet light is a proven technology used for sterilizing bothair and water. It is widely used in air purifiers for the medicalindustry to neutralize airborne tuberculosis, cold and flu viruses,smallpox, anthrax, and other airborne diseases and bacteria.UVused in indoor air purifiers has also proven effective againstairborne mold mycotoxins, animal dander, cat saliva, dust mites,and pollen.
UV germicidal sterilization in air purifiers works by breaking downmicroorganisms and disrupting their DNA, making them unable toreproduce and in effect, "killing" or neutralizing them.
In most air purifiers, UV has a cumulative effect, meaning that themore times the air passes through the unit the better the "killing"rate for microorganisms. For air purifiers used in medical, foodand residential sterilization, we recommend continuous operation atlow speed for the most comprehensive results.
Photocatalytic Technology in AirPurifiers
Photocatalytic air purification technology uses UV light and aspecial catalyst to destroy volatile organic compounds, hazardouschemicals and harsh odors. Photocatalytic technology as used in airpurifiers is considered revolutionary.Like no other medium, itcan actually break down and destroy dangerous and previously hardto treat pollutants including halogenated organics and pesticides.
We have some Photocatalytic filter to fit all kinds of the airpurifier.
