The mitigation of indoor pathogens comprises quantifying, using a bio-aerosol monitoring system, the amount of total pathogens in the air and on surfaces within an indoor environment. Moreover, the process comprises sanitizing the indoor environment with portable equipment to stabilize the indoor environment when it is determined that the indoor environment is contaminated. Also, the process comprises installing a purification device within a contaminated area of the indoor environment, and monitoring continuously, the indoor environment after sanitizing, for pathogens. Still further, the process comprises releasing a purifying agent upon detecting pathogens in the indoor environment, and providing periodic maintenance to the purification device.

The present invention relates to an air decontamination process system, which comprises one or more depollution towers (T), wherein each tower (T) comprises one or more air inlets, with or without air filtration (2), containing such an air decontamination zone, suitable devices for this purpose, an external tower (3) or air tank, where the air is already decontaminated and treated, and an outlet of decontaminated air at the top of the tower (4).

The air thus decontaminated may be released into the atmosphere, the process of the invention being able to give quantities of unpolluted air of the order of 400,000 m3 to 600,000 m.sup.3 per tower (T) per hour.

In this way, the present invention is part of the technical field of the new technologies for the treatment of environmental components, in this specific case, for the treatment and improvement of large volumes ambient air quality.

Provided herein is a sterilization device 100 that includes, a cylindrical case 110 having an air outlet 112 on the top and an air inlet 111 on the side, a fan 140 arranged below the air outlet 112 in the case 110 for sending air to the air outlet 112, and a filter 121 arranged below the fan 140 in the case 110.

A method of treatment with at least one biocidal and/or safener product with a boiling temperature between 60 and 280° C., wherein the method comprises a treatment step duration greater than or equal to 3 days, wherein the treatment step comprises at least one injection phase of a duration greater than or equal to 3 days during which a liquid containing the, or each, product is evaporated and injected inside an enclosure, wherein the liquid is evaporated and injected with a period of less than or equal to two days during the injection phase, wherein the liquid is evaporated at a temperature below 50° C.

Ionization systems and methods include moving air into contact with one or more ion generators and then past an ozone removal assembly to remove at least some ozone from the air. The air may be moved by a fan and may be filtered before contacting the one or more ion generators. The amount of one or more of the following of the air may be measured: the amount of ions, particulates, temperature, humidity, and other relevant factors. The ionization amount may be adjusted based on one or more of the measured amounts. The one or more ion generators and ozone removal assembly may be constructed as part of a single unit so they can be removed and replaced easily.

A steam therapy assembly includes a housing that has an intake and an exhaust to pass air through the intake and the exhaust. A water tank is removably attachable to the housing and the water tank has a fluid port to pass water therethrough for filling the water tank with water. An oil cartridge contains oil and the oil cartridge is removably insertable into the housing. A vaporizing unit is integrated into the housing and the vaporizing unit is in fluid communication between the intake and the exhaust to urge air into the intake and outwardly through the exhaust when the vaporizing unit is turned on. The vaporizing unit vaporizes the water in the water tank into a steam. Additionally, the vaporizing unit vaporizes the oil in the oil cartridge thereby mixing the vaporized oil with the vaporized water.
