Methods, systems and devices associated with a scented electronic candle are described. In one example, an electronic candle includes an outer shell with one or more openings configured to allow a fragrance to exit to an ambient environment of the electronic candle. The outer shell comprises a central opening such that a flame element protrudes at least partially through the central opening. The device includes a light emitting component to emit a light onto the movable flame, and a mounting base positioned below the movable flame element. The device also includes a scent storage component removably coupled to the mounting base. The scent storage component includes a container to store a fragrance and an absorption member configured to draw the fragrance to the ambient environment of the electronic candle through the one or more small openings of the outer shell.

A disinfecting tracking network for creating healthier environments. The system and methods for tracking and utilizing this information to build and maintain healthier environments with a laboratory approach to data inputs. This system is a cloud based system with IOT interface and APIs to enable broad reaching inputs for analysis. This system creates a safer ecosystem and cross statistic sharing of performance parameters.

The ambient air intake may be fluidly coupled to the plasma reactor. The plasma reactor may be fluidly coupled to the neutralizing trap. The neutralizing trap may be fluidly coupled to the purified gas outlet.

A refrigerator appliance includes a cabinet with a fresh food chamber, a freezer chamber, and an aging chamber each defined in the cabinet. The refrigerator appliance also includes an aging chamber door mounted to the cabinet and movable between a closed position and an open position. A method of operating the refrigerator appliance includes receiving a meat aging input from a user interface of the refrigerator appliance and moving a lock configured to retain the aging chamber door in the closed position to a locked position whereby the aging chamber door is retained in the closed position in response to the meat aging input. The method also includes activating a dedicated humidity control system in fluid communication with the aging chamber and fluidly isolated from the fresh food chamber and the freezer chamber for an aging time after moving the lock to the locked position.

One variation of a method for detecting pathogens in an environment includes, during a first sampling period: triggering collection of a pathogen sample from ambient air in the environment by an air sampler; and tracking a first organic load of the first pathogen sample via a detection subsystem integrated within the air sampler, the first organic load representative of a first amount of organic matter present in the first pathogen sample. In response to the first organic load exceeding a threshold organic load defined for the environment, the method further includes: interpreting presence of a set of pathogens in the environment via genetic analysis of the first pathogen sample; and, in response to detecting presence of a first pathogen, in the set of pathogens, in the first pathogen sample, transmitting a notification indicating presence of the first pathogen in the environment to a user associated with the environment.

A sanitization apparatus for sanitizing the air in an environment is described as comprising a first filter which is arranged in an internal chamber upstream of a fan assembly, a second filter which is arranged in the internal chamber downstream of the fan assembly, a first ionizer device which is arranged in the internal chamber between the second filter and the outlet, a second ionizer device which is arranged in the internal chamber between the first filter and the second filter, an electronic control unit which controls the second ionizer device to sanitize the second filter.

A far-ultraviolet (far-UVC) disinfection device including a light source positioned within a housing and configured to emit a far-UVC light having an output wavelength of between about 206 nanometers to about 230 nanometers. There are one or more subject detection sensors positioned configured to detect the presence of one or more subjects and a controller in communication with the light source and the one or more subject detection sensors. The controller is configured to receive detection data from the one or more subject detection sensors and determine whether one or more subjects are within a range of the far-UVC light emitted by the light source. The controller is further configured to cause the light source to emit or cease emitting far-UVC light based on the amount of time one or more subjects are within the range of the emitted. far-UVC light.
