This control system includes a ventilation device which performs exchange between gas inside a room including an infectious object and gas outside the room, to discharge and remove the infectious object; a supply device which supplies an inactivating substance, for inactivating the infectious object, to inside the room to inactivate and remove the infectious object; and a control device which controls the ventilation device and the supply device. The control device switches between a first mode and a second mode which is different from the first mode. The first mode is for performing at least one of a first operation whereby, on the occasion of increasing the removal capability of one of the ventilation device and the supply device, the removal capability of the other is decreased, and a second operation whereby, on the occasion of decreasing the removal efficiency of one of the ventilation device and the supply device, the removal efficiency of the other is increased.

The disclosure herein concerns a method including receiving at a computer at least one target value of a scent parameter for an environment that is remote from the computer, receiving at the computer a sensed parameter of the environment, and controlling, via the computer, diffusion of a liquid from a source of the liquid in fluid communication with at least one scent diffusion device to achieve the target value of the scent parameter, wherein controlling includes setting or adjusting an operation parameter of the at least one scent diffusion device in response to the sensed parameter.

A method of fragrance release within an aircraft having a cabin and an environmental control system for controlling the cabin environment. The method includes: receiving a current aircraft status from the aircraft's environmental control system, wherein the current aircraft status comprises one of: boarding, take-off, breakfast service, lunch service, dinner service, beverage service, sleep mode, cruise, landing, deboarding and emergency; determining an appropriate fragrance for the current aircraft status from a plurality of fragrance sources; and releasing the appropriate fragrance for the current aircraft status into the aircraft's cabin.

In certain exemplary embodiments, an air purifier comprises a housing defining an enclosure and having an air entrance and an air exit; a particulate filter; a NCCO filter material configured to adsorb and decompose at least one gaseous pollutant; an AOG configured to generate at least one oxidant; an oxidant remover configured to remove at least one oxidant; a fan unit configured to generate airflow from the air entrance to the air exit; wherein the particulate filter, the NCCO filter material, the AOG, the oxidant remover and the fan unit are positioned within the enclosure such that during operation, a flow of air passes from the air entrance to the air exit through the particulate filter and the NCCO filter material along a direction of the flow of air. In certain embodiments, the air purifier may ensure safety to users while efficiency in removing contaminants can be greatly improved.
