‘Fresh air’ machine will kill viruses and bacteria…

Tri-Air Developments technology unlike other devices is not an air filter. It simulates the production of outdoor fresh air to destroy airborne viruses and bacteria in minutes. The decontamination process occurs both within and outside the machine, making it effective even without processing all of the contaminated air through the device.

The biotechnology device uniquely combines three established decontamination technologies to overcome their inherent individual shortcomings: non-thermal plasma; ultraviolet catalysis; and 'open air factor'. This creates a fresh air environment that is lethal to pathogenic viruses and bacteria, including MRSA on surfaces.

Tri-Air Developments has conducted independent verification tests at the UK Government’s Health Protection Agency (HPA) Centre for Emergency Preparedness & Response (at Porton Down). The testing programme began in June 2006 with a 99.9999% kill of airborne MS2 Coliphage (surrogate test virus) in less than five minutes; and recently included a 99.9999% kill on airborne MRSA in less than 3 minutes.

A revolutionary air decontamination technology with a 99.9999% kill rate, which can protect against a wide range of viruses and bacteria including H5N1, Influenza, SARS and Category 4 viruses whether they are spread by air or surface contact.

Scaleable…

The unit creates a continual supply of hydroxyl radicals, to destroy microbes including flu and cold viruses and bacteria, both in the air and on surface contact. Hydroxyl radicals are found naturally in abundance in outdoor fresh air, with high concentrations found in forested mountain areas. When someone sneezes the particles of mucus ejected are full of viruses: the hydroxyl radicals from the unit condense onto these particles and rapidly destroy the viruses even in close human proximity. This same condensation effect takes place on contaminated surfaces, killing surface viruses and bacteria within a number of hours.

The technology can be readily adapted for a range of medical, commercial, transport, and residential applications. It can be applied as stand-alone units for flexible application within the healthcare industry or, equally with a little development it can be incorporated within large ventilation systems of commercial and public buildings, for example airports and financial centres.

Unlike other ‘deep clean’ decontamination technologies, the Tri-Air system can operate whilst people are present, and will provide continual 24/7 background protection against the airborne and surface spread of pathogenic viruses and bacteria.

Tri-Air Developments technology is patented in the UK and patent pending in a further 59 jurisdictions around the world.
