Disclosed is a method for disinfecting packaging. In certain aspects, the method comprises placing the packaging in a contacting chamber and directly contacting the packaging with gaseous ozone for a time interval, wherein the time interval is sufficient to substantially reduce pathogens on the packaging. In certain embodiments, the time interval is from about 3 seconds to about 30 seconds. In certain aspects, the gaseous ozone is comprised of from about 6% to about 12% ozone and the time interval is sufficient to substantially reduce pathogens on the packaging.

A galley insert assembly for an aircraft galley comprises an insert body including a plurality of insert walls defining an interior space therein. The insert walls are configured to interface with a galley bay of an aircraft with the insert body inserted into the galley bay. A disinfection system is included within the interior space and a door is operatively connected to the insert walls.

The disclosure relates to disinfection application, particularly, to a device capable of disinfecting a ventilator as well as a face mask and a hose, and more particularly, to an ozone disinfection device, an ozone disinfection system, and an ozone disinfection method. An ozone disinfection device and an ozone disinfection system are provided. An ozone disinfection device includes: a sealed disinfection space, a gas distribution unit, an ozone generation unit, a suction pump, a filter, and a control module.

A continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine cleaning system. The system may include a lower enclosure with an ozone generator and a fan all located therewithin. The system may also include an upper enclosure with a dehumidifier mechanism housed within a rear portion thereof, a CPAP hose and CPAP mask connection located within the rear portion thereof, capable of removable attachment to a CPAP hose and a filter located on a top of thereof and capable of being removable therefrom.

The present invention is generally related to a device and method for sanitizing a medical instrument with ozone, in particular the invention relates to a system, method and a device for sanitizing a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device. The device has an ozone compartment, an ozone operating system and one or more ozone distribution lines that distribute ozone to a continuous positive airway pressure device. The device may further include a heater adapter unit to connect heating systems in CPAP devices while distributing ozone to sanitize the CPAP device in accordance with the present invention.

The system of the present invention is for treating surfaces and airborne particles comprising. The system includes an exterior housing and an enclosed water storage tank mounted inside the exterior housing to store water. The system may also include a dry mist generator mounted on a water float to position the dry mist generator below a surface of the water stored in the enclosed water storage tank. The system may further include an air blower having an outlet connected to water storage tank above a predetermined water level. The system may still further include an oxygen tank having an outlet, and an ozone generator connected to the outlet of the oxygen tank, The system may also include a regulator and flow meter connected to the outlet of the oxygen tank and having an inlet conduit to the ozone generator to regulate a flow of oxygen into the ozone generator.

A disinfection panel for disinfecting an article facing the disinfection panel is provided. The disinfection panel comprises an interior surface, an exterior surface, a disinfecting member disposed on the interior surface, a first side comprising a first coupling member and a second side comprising a second coupling member. The disinfecting member is configured to disinfect the article facing the disinfection panel. The disinfecting member is any one or more of an ultraviolet (UV) light emitter, an ionizing or non-ionizing radiator, a chemical sprayer, an ozone sprayer, or a heat emitter.

A device utilizing one or more mechanically moving UVC emitters in conjunction with ozone gas treatment to disinfect various common items may be described herein. Disinfection may be achieved by mechanically following the surface of the object, at close range, with the UVC light. This may increase the intensity of the UVC light, which in turn, decreases the time required to reach sanitization. The mechanically moving UVC light may allow the device to disinfect an object thoroughly due to its ability to reposition the emitters. The system described herein may sanitize surfaces not in a direct line of sight of the UVC light. A small-scale system, described herein, may quickly disinfect objects that have been re-contaminated and/or where a full-scale sanitization system is impracticable. Additionally, a system aimed at reducing the cost and increasing the efficiency of frequently sanitizing objects may be described herein.

The present invention is generally related to an apparatus and method for sanitizing a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device, in particular the invention relates to a system, method and device that attach to a CPAP device and sanitizes all of the parts of the CPAP device, including the inner areas of the hose, reservoir and face mask most prone for bacteria buildup. The device has an ozone operating system and one or more ozone distribution lines that distributes ozone to a CPAP device and a non-permeable bag for sanitizing a CPAP mask.

In order to limit exposure of a fan (50) and of eventually other internal components to oxidizing species induced by the operation of an ozone generator (70), a gas treatment system (10) of the type operating alternately in treatment mode and in regeneration mode comprises two adsorption devices (60, 80) which are arranged respectively upstream and downstream of the ozone generator.
