Air Purifier with Germicidal Protection |
Heterogeneous
photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) eliminates concentrations of
organic contaminants from gaseous effluents by converting
them to safe substances such as water vapor or carbon dioxide.
Our air purifier with germicidal protection and Snapcat™
photocatalytic oxidation removes musty odors, pet dander,
viruses, mold, bacteria, and other airborne pathogens. Eliminates
VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Irradiates the furnace
- air conditioning coils and makes them like new again, increasing
air flow and efficiency. Helps clean and sanitize air ducts
and kill mold while eliminating odors throughout the entire
home.
Snapcat™ is based on the most advanced nano-technology Photocatalysis. In the presence of our UV light source and natural moisture in the air, oxygen is formed on the Snapcat™ plate's surface. This intelligently breaks down unwanted odors, pungent smells, allergens, air pollutants and harmful toxins through an oxidation process. Snapcat™ protects you from any absorbtion of pollutants that may otherwise accumulate in an enclosed area. Snapcat is ideal for any workplace, gyms, schools, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, day cares and homes. Snapcat™ not only attacks and decomposes the cause of odors, but also continuously offers an air purifying effect year round, creating a healthy environment. Another plus, greenhouses, where Snapcat™ destroys organic pollutants and plants thrive on the carbon dioxide those pollutants are converted to.
Traditional air purifiers work by forcing air throught the machine, where their effectiveness is largely dependent on the size of the room and the amount of the air that can be treated at one time. Some of the more advanced technology such as ozone generators create harmful byproducts that are hazardous to your health. Snapcat photocatalyst air oxidation combined with our UV-C light germicidal air purifier is an invisible air purification system that continuously maintains a pure and clean environment, and it's a silent air purifier. Simply turn on the UV system and let the purification process begin.
If
you already own a CaluTech UV air purifier
you can easily add the Snapcat™ snap-on strips to your
existing UV lamps, or add Snapcat™ at your next lamp
change. It's also available for other UV air purifier models
not made by us!
Snapcat™
is a Patent Pending product which allows a simple, yet effective
way to utilize photocatalytic oxidation technology in your
home. The photocatalytic strips are different than some UV
air purifier models made by others, which use a simple piece
of titanium metal in the attempt to produce a catalyst oxidation
process. Titanium Dioxide, or Titania (chemical name ti02)
is a product not produced by nature and not made from titanium
metal. It is extracted mainly from rutile beach sand and when
it is used in the Snapcat™ process it becomes a powerful
oxidizer which reacts with UV light below 385nm. The Snapcat™
strips are manufactured and coated with a very pure titanium
dioxide which is baked on the Snapcat™ strip. This coating
lasts for 5 years, or more. Adding Snapcat™ technology
to CaluTech's UV air purification gives you a superior method
for air purification. UV-C germicidal light produced by the
CaluTech product line eliminates viruses, mold, bacteria and
other living airborne pathogens by modifying the living organism's
DNA, preventing them from reproducing, and causing the organisms
to die. Adding Snapcat™ strips to our UV air purifiers
causes a reaction between the UV light and the strips. This
reaction is called Heterogeneous Photocatalysis, or quite
simply 'photocatalytic Oxidation' / PCO Technology. The PCO
process generates hydroxyl radicals which are among the most
powerful oxidizers. Like UV-C light 
these
oxidizers destroy microorganisms in the air, but the advantage
is the ability for these oxidizers to reach living organisms
in places where the UV-C light cannot reach. In addition,
because titanium dioxide is a semiconductor it absorbs UV
light and breaks down volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such
as odors and gases like carbon monoxide or nitrous oxide.
These gases are converted by the photocatalytic process into
carbon dioxide, rendering them completely harmless. All you
have left is pure clean air! Breathe clean again, breathe
crisp clean air.

Unlike spray deodorizers, Snapcat actually eliminates odor and harmful bacteria. Working in conjunction with our UV air purifiers you have a cost effective air sterilization system. Titania is found in processed food, toothpaste, even cosmetics. We eat it and wear it, who would have though it cleaned the air we breathe? It's a powerful photocatalyst. When it's in the UV light it doesn't burn up like living organisms because it's a semi-conductor type photocatalyst. Scientists are developing 'self-cleaning clothes' with Titania. Even self-cleaning tiles for floors & walls are being made overseas. It's an extremely powerful oxidizer, lethal to odors and mold but harmless to us. |
