Re: Many air cleaners miss gases

[Guest guest]

Despite the rising popularity of indoor air cleaners, off-the-shelfproducts cannot effectively remove chemical gases that pollute homes,schools and offices, according to a Syracuse University study.

Dear IAQ Members,

There is a technology available which DOES remove VOC's and it is not available off the shelf...yet. It utilizes photocatalysis in combination with UVGI (ultraviolet germicidal irradiation and has been extensively tested under funding from NASA and developed in conjunction with the Univ. of Wisconsin. It removes over 99.8% of all bacteria, viruses, mold spores, dust, dander and VOC's. I will provide any interested party with information about how and where to obtain more details about this technology. It is state of the art and I doubt the Syracuse study covered it as it is not yet available in off the shelf machines...but will be very soon, both in commercial/industrial units and in units designed for the consumer.

ph,

What you describe sounds very much like the RGF Environmental

Photohydroionization system which is currently available through

RGF's Certified Commercial Dealers. If the system you describe is

different, in what way is it different?

Dear Ron,

I am not familiar with RFG's system, however the one I described uses BOTH photocatalysis and ultraviolet germicidal irradiation in sequence as the air is drawn thru the unit...not sure if RFG's system does that. Can you send me a link to their web site as I would like to compare the systems.

I wrote to The Post-Standard, the publisher of the article below

and asked for the evaluated types of indoor air cleaners.

It would be interesting to see the final report on this.
