Air purification devices include an air inlet and outlet, upstream and downstream sections in air flow communication with the air inlet and outlet and a filter removably positioned between the upstream and downstream sections to filter at least pathogens from air being passed through the filter. One or more ultraviolet (UV) illuminating sources may be positioned in at least the upstream section proximate the filter to illuminate at least an upstream surface of the filter with sufficient UV radiation to kill viable pathogens that accumulate on the filter. One or more ozone generating sources may be positioned to generate ozone in sufficient concentrations to kill viable pathogens proximate the device. The UV illuminating sources and ozone generating sources may be positioned to provide a predetermined pressure drop across the sources and air flow pattern proximate the filter, and enable the filter to be removed without handling the sources.

An improved poultry production method comprising providing dry hydrogen peroxide (DHP) to poultry eggs, chicks and birds, and devices for providing DHP to poultry production during laying, incubating, hatching, and growing.

An aspirating smoke detection unit 1 for limiting the spread of airborne contaminants. The aspirating smoke detection unit 1 includes a smoke detector 5 for detecting the presence of smoke particles suspended in air from a monitored region; an ozone generator 7 for producing ozone from oxygen contained in air from the monitored region 20; and an ionizer 8 for ionizing air molecules within air from the monitored region 20. A methods of reducing the spread of airborne contaminants within a monitored region 20 using the aspirating smoke detection unit 1.

An air treatment device includes: a casing having an inlet through which air is drawn, and an outlet out of which the air drawn through the inlet is blown; a blade configured to adjust a direction of the air blown out of the outlet; and a generator configured to generate an antimicrobial element that sanitizes the blade. The blade has a first surface, and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The blade is shiftable between a first position in which the antimicrobial element is provided to the first surface and a second position in which the antimicrobial element is provided to the second surface.

A sterilization and disinfection device includes a housing. A control board, a humidification water tank, a humidification water trough, an ultrasonic humidifier and an ozone water tank are provided inside the housing. The humidification water trough communicates with a humidification outlet through a humidification pipe. A humidification air input channel is connected to a humidification fan connected to a humidification air inlet. The ozone water tank is equipped with an electrolytic ozone generator. The ozone water tank communicates with an ozone gas outlet through an ozone gas output pipe and a mixing chamber. The ozone water tank communicates with a water filling port through a water filling pipe. An ozone fan is installed in an ozone air inlet. The control board is electrically connected to the button display panel, the ultrasonic humidifier, the electrolytic ozone generator, the ozone fan, the humidification fan and the power inlet, respectively.

A free radical sterilization system having a chamber defining a region, and a generator for generating free radical reach effluent from a free radical electric generator and/or a vaporizer. A closed loop circulating system without a free-radical destroyer is provided for supplying the mixture of free radicals from the electric generator mixed with the hydrogen peroxide solution in the form of the effluent to the chamber. The free-radical sterilization system is used in sterilizing items in the chamber and, with an open-bottomed wound chamber, in treating wounds on a body.

A self-sealing fragrance dispenser can be positioned within an air channel having active and inactive air flow states. The dispenser can include a main body having an cavity in which a fragrance medium can be disposed, an access door, an intake door, and an exhaust door. The intake and exhaust doors can be biased in closed positions via bias structures or gravity. Pressures exerted against the intake and exhaust doors when the air channel is in the active air flow state place the intake and exhaust doors in respective closed intake and closed exhaust door states that seal the amount of fragrance medium within the cavity when the air channel is in the inactive air flow state.

Technologies for sanitizing medical devices are described. In particular, sanitizing systems, components of sanitizing systems, and methods for sanitizing medical devices such as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) equipment are described. In embodiments, the sanitizing systems include a sanitizing gas generator and a base including at least one exhaust port and a filter.
