The
Process
There are different technologies used by Second Wind
Air Purifier Systems. All of our Second Wind Air Purification Systems use Ultra-violet
germicidal light. Ultra-violet germicidal light has been used successfully since
1936 in controlling airborne pathogens such as viruses and bacteria. Ultraviolet
germicidal light is used in many applications: water treatment, hospital surgery
rooms, laboratories, fish tanks and ponds, food processing plants, dairies, etc.
As the microscopic bioaersols in the air, enter the duct system through the return
and are exposed to the Ultra-violet light, their DNA structure is altered thus
sterilizing them.
The 1000 Series Second Wind Air Purifiers produce a
metered amount of singlet oxygen atoms (pure oxygen) that can only exist in nature
for a few seconds. The singlet oxygen atoms attach to the odor causing gas-phase
contaminants and change their molecular structure to a non-odiferous state.
The balance of our air purification units use a process called Photocatalytic
Oxidation. This process uses ultra-violet energy and a semiconductor. Destruction
of organic compounds takes place through reactions with oxygen (O), or hydroxyl
radicals (OH). The O, OH reaction with volatile organics compounds (VOC's) drives
these diverse gas-phase odor causing contaminants to change their chemical make-up,
thereby reducing odors.
Several of our units have also incorporated air
filtration. These units have filters such as a 5 inch pleated media filter, a
12 inch HEPA-type media filter, and an advanced carbon-fiber filter.
The Proof
 To
test the effectiveness of the Second Wind Air Purifier in eliminating airborne
contaminates in an enclosed environment, petri dishes were placed in a portable
classroom and left uncovered to accumulate any airborne contaminates. A portable
Second Wind Air Purifier programmed to run for three separate one hour periods
within 24 hours was then placed in the room. The dish on the left shows the dramatic
results. Over the 72 hours of the experiment, 100% of the contaminates were eliminated.
