(2000, preferably against poliovirus type 1 (Sabin) (“PV1”)

An open-cell foam structure that is used to detect and remove substances from water or air.

To provide a method for disinfecting air and surfaces which provides a continuous protection of people and/or animals from pathogens a given volume, in particular for essentially 24 hours a day, and which can be conducted with people and animals present, a method for disinfecting air and surfaces is proposed, wherein a disinfectant is dispersed into a volume to be disinfected, wherein the disinfectant comprises electrolyzed and/or sterilized water containing hypochlorous acid, and wherein a dispersion rate of the disinfectant is adjusted such, that a concentration of the hypochlorous acid in the volume is continuously between 0.05 mg/m.sup.3 and 10.0 mg/m.sup.3.

An air decontamination apparatus for a common HVAC system includes a plurality of venturi holes. The plurality of venturi holes are configured to be positioned in the common HVAC system for forcing airflow in the common HVAC system through the plurality of venturi holes. Each of the plurality of venturi holes including an antimicrobial coating. Wherein, the air decontamination apparatus is configured to kill bacteria and viruses in the airflow in the common HVAC system via the antimicrobial coating on each of the plurality of venturi holes.

An air purification unit and/or system for an environment with multiple seated individuals, including an air collector and air purification chamber, to be used independently from or in conjunction with the environment's air handling system.

A volatile composition dispenser is configured to be used in a vehicle. The volatile composition dispenser comprises a housing and a fan positioned at least partially within the housing. The fan is configured to intermittently activate to move a volume of air. The volatile composition dispenser further comprises a controller in electrical communication with the fan and positioned within the housing, and a replaceable unit configured to be attached to the housing and positioned at least partially within the housing.

The present invention is a portable personalized air purifier intended to be attached to the belt or to the neck of a user. Purified air is generated by filtering, electrochemically, and UV LED treating of a polluted air. Polluted air is forced through a filtering into an ionized water, which absorbs particles and kills possible air born bacteria. The UV LED disinfects the polluted air. The device further balances the humidity of the air and delivers a healthy air towards the face of the user through a mask.

A vaporizer device for vaporizing a liquid and/or an aerosol, has at least one housing comprising at least one vaporizer space housing, which delimits a vaporizer space into which the liquid to be vaporized and/or the aerosol to be vaporized can be fed, and has at least one heating unit for a vaporization of the fed-in liquid and/or the fed-in aerosol, wherein the heating unit is realized as a matrix heating unit comprising a plurality of heating elements, which can be regulated and/or monitored separately, wherein the heating unit comprises the plurality of heating elements which are arranged irregularly and/or regularly in a plane, wherein the plurality of heating elements are arranged at a heating plate of the heating unit, wherein a surface of the heating plate forms a vaporizer surface of the heating unit for a vaporization of the liquid and/or of an aerosol.

The present invention relates to a novel COVID-19 treatment system and associated method. The system features an electromagnetic field pulse generator for generating a low frequency electromagnetic field pulse configured to create a magnetic resonance with the magnetic field generated by the living coronavirus in and around a patient body of an infected person. The magnetic resonance weakens the coronavirus and expels the coronavirus from the patient body to an outside chamber wherein the chamber air is sanitized by passing through a disinfectant solution. In some embodiments, the electromagnetic field generated by the generator may include frequencies from radio frequencies to higher millimeter waves to microwaves.

An air management system for a common indoor room or space that comprises a plurality of air outflow apertures or vents, a plurality of air curtains having at least a portion of the air curtains separated from one another, a plurality of separated air suction intakes, and an air sterilization and/or air cleaning mechanism.
