Do Air Purifiers Work?

People are constantly exposed to new air cleaning devices recently, we have discussed the answers to questions such as whether air cleaning devices work, especially with the COVID-19 virus we are faced with.

From the moment we are born, we live in constant contact with some viruses, bacteria or other microbes that are present in the air we breathe. This is actually a necessary and tolerable condition for the development of our immune system. Most of us can tolerate and survive. In fact, because we are immune to many harmful bacteria, when we encounter a bacteria of the same type, our immune system deactivates it without harming us. However, this may not be the case for viruses.

Air disinfection devices, which we can see in hospitals, bank branches, conference halls, dormitories, quarantine rooms, generate negative ions by using ultraviolet rays. It destroys viruses, fungi, mold and spores in the air, and at the same time provides a sterile atmosphere by clearing the air from particles, pollen and ethylene agents. In short, we can answer ""yes"" to the question of whether air purification devices work.

So how do air purifiers work? As mentioned above, it works with the negative ions it creates. Since normal atoms or molecules gain extra electrons, they become negative ions. The negative ions produced by the device are made of oxygen atoms. The same process happens continuously in nature. Ions in nature are formed due to sunlight, radiation and air movements.

The more negative ions in the environment, the less contamination or less particles circulating in the air. High voltage and UVC light are required to generate negative ions. Oxygen atoms gain electrons under these conditions and become negative ions.

Air purification devices contribute to the destruction of germs, viruses, fungi, mold and spores by removing odor and pollution in the environment by producing negative oxygen and ozone gas under high voltage, Titanium dioxide, AgI, CuS coated Borosilicate glass tubes and UVC.

These devices also have the ability to smell. If you are one of those who like to shoot two birds with one stone, you can both eliminate the bacteria in the environment and clean the bad odors in your home with air cleaning devices. Some air purification devices have a biodecontamination rate of over 96%. Allergenic patient, COPD, low hope or chemotherapy and under threat of contamination, quarantine room etc. It can be used especially in people's living spaces.
