Pure air is paramount in any space, no matter how big or small. Where some purifiers can produce harmful compounds, like ozone, and some use chemicals like hydrogen peroxide, photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) air purifiers provide an effective solution without those risks. Airocide, developed for NASA uses this powerful air purification method – and because these purifiers produce no harmful emissions, they’re safe to use in a wide variety of spaces and applications. Find out why a PCO air purifier is the right fit for your space, and read on to discover how you can get the NASA-developed solution that’s already in use around the globe.

Photocatalytic Oxidation Air Purifiers – Developed by NASA

Airocide’s PCO process was developed for use in the cramped quarters of the space station. NASA was experimenting with growing plants in space, and mature plants produce a volatile organic compound (or VOC) known as ethylene gas. This VOC can collect and begin to accelerate the aging and spoilage of healthy plant matter. A form of PCO was developed that didn’t produce harmful emissions like ozone, and which – in addition to eliminating VOCs – also safely eliminated viruses, bacteria, and other unwanted organic particles in the air. That technology, developed for NASA, is the very same as you’ll find in Airocide air purification.

Safe Air Purification for All Spaces

From the tight quarters of the space station, to hospitals and operating theaters, to busy offices, and all the way to the largest production lines and warehouses, PCO technology is uniquely capable of scaling to your space. It keeps sensitive products like produce and flowers fresh by stopping airborne mold and VOCs. It protects employees by eliminating bacteria and viruses from the air they breathe. And can even help protect your bottom line by reducing losses and lost time from all of these issues. PCO does all of this without producing any harmful emissions, meaning that your employees, visitors, customers, and even office pets and service animals can breathe easy knowing their air is purified by Airocide.

A PCO Air Purification System for Your Space

To fit a variety of spaces and use cases, we have a wide variety of PCO air purifiers. To create the best system for your space, we recommend reaching out to an air purification expert here to learn more about using Airocide. You’re likely to discover that, no matter the size of your space, Airocide air purification with PCO can be made into an ideal fit.

“Back to the office” doesn’t need to mean going back to dodging airborne viruses, seasonal allergens, and pollutants or irritants in the air. With the right air purifier, you can reduce the risk of respiratory infections, keep the air free of those sniffle-causing pollen molecules, and provide clean air to the whole office that’s free of fungal spores and bacteria. The right technology doesn’t just stop airborne irritants and threats, though – it destroys them and removes them from the air completely so the risk of infection is reduced. Find out what kind of protection will help you reduce and control viruses, bacteria, and much more in your office’s air – read on to learn all about Airocide.

Powerful Protection From Airborne Threats

Air quality is the first line of defense between your workforce and airborne infections – so a reliable solution is key. Airocide is proven powerful and effective, with case studies collected across more than two decades of industrial use. Many of the studies point to significant reductions in colony-forming bacteria, viruses, mold, and fungi – the very same airborne contaminants that can cause infections and other health issues in an office environment. Airocide destroys these contaminants, reducing infection risks and helping keep your air, and your employees, healthy.

Office-Friendly Air Purification Units

Designed to be easy to use and maintain, Airocide is a perfect fit for offices of all sizes. Whether for personal office units or extensive open-plan spaces, there’s an Airocide system that can be configured to provide full protection. Installation is easy too, with all the equipment you need to mount the unit included. When it’s ready to run, all you need to do is plug it in and turn it on – it will operate continuously. It’s perfectly safe to run 24/7, because Airocide produces no ozone or harmful emissions. Maintenance varies per unit, but is often as easy as switching a filter and changing the bulbs in your unit.

Protect Employees With an Office Air Purifier That Destroys Viruses

As FDA Certified class II medical devices, every Airocide unit offers proven, safe air purification and protection for your office. Find out which unit is right for your space, reach out to our air purification experts today and request a facility proposal. You’ll find it’s easy to create a clean atmosphere in your offices with Airocide.

If protection of employees, patients, and visitors in your hospital or medical offices is your top priority, you know how important indoor air quality is. The right air purification solution is effective, efficient, and it covers every space in your facility. A variety of purification technologies exist to address air quality, from UV light to HEPA filtration, but there’s one method which destroys 99.99% of the organic threats that pass through it. Airocide is an air purifier that uses photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) – a process that doesn’t just stop bacteria, viruses, and mold, it destroys them. Here’s what makes PCO a better air purification solution for your hospital or medical offices.

PCO, Filters, and UV Air Purifiers – What’s the Difference?

Where a UV system or an air filter may already be in place inside your HVAC, it isn’t necessarily catching the airborne particles or droplets in common areas, hallways, operating rooms, and patient rooms. Airocide PCO air purifiers are designed to process the air in all of these spaces by constantly circulating it through a sealed reaction chamber. Instead of catching particles to be disposed of later, as in a filter-only system, threats that pass through an active Airocide unit collide with hydroxyl radicals that are bonded to the catalyst surface. Bacteria, viruses, and even allergens like pollen are destroyed as quickly as they enter, and the air that circulates out of the unit is pure – containing only trace elements of carbon dioxide and water vapor.

Air Quality in ORs and Patient Rooms

This method of purification makes it ideal for areas where quick and consistent reduction of airborne viruses and microbial CFUs is key. A study of Airocide’s effectiveness in the operating room of an outpatient cosmetic surgery facility showed a 92% reduction in airborne bacterial CFUs in only 24 hours, with a 47.3% drop in only one hour. In spaces where even the most fastidious doctor, nurse, or surgeon can bring unwanted organic threats into the room with them, protection from Airocide can go a long way to prevent unexpected infections. Airocide is also a certified FDA class II medical device, and produces no harmful emissions.

Protecting High-Volume, High-Traffic Spaces

An Airocide system can also be scaled and applied anywhere else that patients and visitors spend time, from patient rooms, to waiting areas, and even high-traffic hallways and common areas. There are a variety of Airocide units, all featuring the same PCO technology, but with additional features and reactor sizes to accommodate any volume of air you need to process. That means you can protect every space and every occupant from airborne bacteria, viruses, mold, and more.

Find Full-Scale Air Purification for Your Hospital or Medical Office

Airocide can work alongside an existing system or by itself, and it’s easy to install and maintain. With a variety of units, there’s an option that’s right for your facility or offices. Airocide is a PCO air purification method that produces no harmful emissions such as ozone, and can be used in private offices as well as high-traffic spaces in the hospital.
