The present invention relates a deodorizing catalyst including a copper-manganese-based composite oxide, zeolite, and activated carbon.

Disclosed is a method for disinfecting and cleaning to prevent contamination of a passenger vehicle, characterized in that it includes the following operations: —installing at least one filter and condenser in the ventilation circuit; creating a swirling vortex of a disinfectant liquid by a gas referred to as a driving gas; spraying the swirling mixture created onto the clothing and luggage of passengers before they enter the passenger compartment; and spraying the mixture created onto the solid surfaces and/or into the air of the passenger compartment to be disinfected. Also disclosed is a device for implementing the method.

This present invention relates to a novel disinfectant fogger device and a disinfecting solution contained therein for disinfecting or sanitizing an enclosed space. The disinfecting solution is intended to kill germs, bacteria, viruses and other harmful microbes. The disinfectant fogger device is comprised of an aerosol container, the novel disinfecting solution, and a nozzle for dispensing the solution on demand. The disinfectant solution is preferably comprised of between 5-15% of a quaternary ammonium compound by weight, between 40-70% of a monohydric alcohol by weight, and between 15-40% of an alkyl by weight, and is capable of killing up to 99.9% of the germs and other harmful pathogens in the enclosed space.

Presented here is a multi-functional powder which: comprises the first component that includes one selection from the group consisting of silicon oxide (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), calcium oxide (CaO), magnesium oxide (MgO), and combinations thereof; and the second component that includes at least one selection from the group consisting of iron oxide (Fe2O3), potassium oxide (K2O), sodium oxide (Na2O), strontium oxide (SrO), sulfur trioxide (S3O), boron oxide (B2O3), manganese oxide (MnO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and combinations thereof; whose far-infrared emission rate for the wavelength region of 5 .Math.ms to 20 .Math.ms at 37° C. is between 0.5% and 5%; whose harmful gas deodorization balance index under the following Formula 1 is between 0.8 and 2.0; and whose bacterial reduction rate (%) is 90% or greater for each of staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Escherichia coli (ATCC 8739), Klebsiella pneumonia (ATCC 4352), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 10145).

An embodiment provides a method for cleaning a surface, including: encapsulating a cleaning composition in a polymer material to form a compound, wherein the polymer material surrounds the cleaning composition; placing the compound in a location adjacent to the surface, wherein the location adjacent to the surface is a volume separated from an outer volume; dissolving the polymer material at a pH above a target value above the polymer material pH dissolution point, wherein the dissolving releases the cleaning composition; and cleaning the surface using the released cleaning composition. Other aspects are described and claimed.

This present invention relates to a portable disinfection device for dispersing a unique disinfecting solution into a room or enclosed space. The disinfecting solution may comprise one or more of a an ethyl or isopropyl alcohol, a lemon or fruit scent, an aldehyde, a chlorine compound, an oxidizing agent, a phenol, a quaternary ammonium, and a propellant, wherein the amount of the ethyl or isopropyl alcohol is at least 60% of the disinfecting solution by weight. The disinfecting solution is stored in a pressurized canister, and a release tab is pressed down for controlling the release of the disinfecting solution into the room from the canister. The disinfecting solution kills 99.9% of the germs and pathogens that it contacts.

A method for treating foul odors. A chemical solution is administered to the area to be treated. The chemical solution includes: potassium iodine, zinc sulfate and magnesium sulfate. In a preferred embodiment the chemical solution is diluted in water and applied to an area needing treatment.
