Processes that take place in the cleaning chamber :

Photochemical Effect

Chemical reaction caused by exposure to a specific light energy. Breaks down harmful organic molecules passing into the cleaning chamber via the airflow.

Photo Catalytic Oxydation

UV light irradiation of titanium dioxide; a potent photocatalyst which participates in the chemical reactions. The PCO creates chemical reactions and produces hydroxyl radicals and superoxide ions which are highly reactive and shall oxidize volatile organic compounds (VOCs), bacteria, viruses and fungi in the room where the device is placed.

Photoplasma

The excitation of gas by the radio frequency energy – in our case we excite gases by the energy waves of ultraviolet light – to create an energized gas which is highly reactive with the organic contaminants. This purifying plasma is blown by the device into the room and contains atoms, excited molecules, ionized gases, radicals, metastable particles and free electrons that can destroy any organic contaminant.

The combined action of these three purification techniques makes the decontamination process used by BioZone unique.
