The Air Oasis Mini, 1000, 3000, 3000 Extreme and the new ACT Induct air purifiers, utilizing a high-performance Quad-Nano Xtreme™ quad metallic catalyst, nano technology and photocatalytic oxidation (AHPCO™, Advanced Hydrated Photocatalytic Oxidation technology, TiO2), not only remove particulate matter like dust mites, pet dander, mold spores and pollen, they will even remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that come from such sources as cleaning solutions, carpets, paints, building materials and formaldehyde. Most air filters sold in stores do not remove gaseous VOCs. Additionally, even if a HEPA filter traps bacteria, germs and viruses, it doesn't kill them. And, unfortunately, when you replace the filter, the bacterial, germs and viruses on the filter are released back into the air. How the Air Oasis Air Purifier Air Cleaner Works

The photocatalytic oxidation technology of the Air Oasis Mini, 1000, 3000, 3000 Extreme, and induct ACT far surpasses HEPA and other filtration systems because it can effectively treat pollution as small as .001 microns (herbicides, pesticides and most viruses). Here is a partial list of particulates, microbials, odors and other pollution the Air Oasis photocatalytic oxidation technology treats:

• Particulates: dust, dust mites, dust mite feces, pollen, pet dander, skin flakes (food for dust mites), smoke particles, allergens, etc.

• Microbials: germs, microscopic bacteria, viruses, fungi, mildew, mold spores and mycotoxins produced by a fungus, as small as .001 microns. Microbials often thrive in heating and air conditioning ducts.

• Gases/Chemical Fumes: VOC's (volatile organic compounds), chemicals like benzene and formaldehyde, cigarette smoke, plus fumes constantly escaping from construction, carpets, upholstery, furniture, drapes, cleaning materials, dry cleaning, nail treatment products and more.

• Odors: animals, pets, food, body, cooking, smelly sports and camping equipment, shoes, litter boxes, cigarette, cigar, pipe smoke, smoke damage, etc.

AHPCO™ is an Advanced Hydrated Photocatalytic Oxidation technology. Basically, it is a broad spectrum high intensity UV light targeted on a patent-pending Quad-Nano Xtreme™ quad metallic catalyst utilizing nano technology in a low-level ozone and moist atmosphere. This creates an advanced oxidation of friendly oxidizers. Unlike ozone, these oxidizers are safe, but yet aggressive at killing mold, bacteria, viruses and more. They also effectively neutralize odors and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Once they have done their job they revert back to oxygen and hydrogen. AHPCO technology has been successfully used in water, air, food and laundry applications.

Development
The UV, (ultraviolet), light and ozone are not new discoveries. Ozone was first discovered in the late 1800's and used as a water purifier in Europe. Is Ozone Safe? UV light was discovered in the 1930's. Actually, nature discovered it before; it was called the "sun". The disinfection qualities of UV light are also not new. Hospitals have used UV light for decades in operating rooms. Barbers were disinfecting combs in the 1950's with UV light. What is new is the enhancement of both these natural, friendly oxidizers and the validation for use on air, water, food and laundry.

Photocatalytic Oxidation technology is a purification process so effective it’s FDA approved for poultry processing (destroys salmonella), pork processing (destroys E. coli), and is also widely used to remove pesticides from fruits and vegetables. It not only attacks bacterial cells, but also decomposes the cell itself. It has been tested in both medical and industrial settings, and has proven successful at eliminating odors and impurities caused by chemicals, viruses, and bacteria.

History of Air Systems
In the mid-1980's air purifiers started to make their way into the residential market. Ozone air systems were widely used in the commercial restoration business for fire and flood damage to buildings. These applications utilized corona discharge systems (CD) that use a spark or electrically charged plates to simulate lightning. This converted the oxygen (O2) to ozone (O3). The CD method creates very high concentrated ozone. Plus by using air as the oxygen source, you are receiving 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen. The problem with CD systems is with oxygen conversion you also get a nitrogen conversion, which makes nitric acid and nitric oxide. Is Ozone Safe?

The problem facing the residential air systems was that the cost of an oxygen generator was so high they went without one. This, of course, created a CD unit that produced high concentrated ozone plus low levels of nitric oxide and nitric acid. The maintenance was a problem due to the corrosive nature of nitric acid and the high concentration of ozone exceeding the Federal safety limits of .04 ppm. Ozone readings at the exhaust have exceeded 10 ppm, which is potentially lethal. Air Oasis decided to stay out of this dangerous market. Air Oasis low ozone levels

In the late 1980's it was discovered that the lower concentration of ozone could have an effect on odors, mold, (What is Mold?, About Mold, Mold Facts), and bacteria. Testing this theory, determined that safe, low levels of ozone could have a significant result with airborne mold, odors and bacteria. The problem was to create a safe residential air purifier that could produce safe, low concentrations of ozone that would not exceed the .04 ppm Federal limits. This was accomplished in the early 1990's, about the same time as the Federal Government was going after the ozone residential units. This battle of the Feds and manufacturers gave ozone a very bad name.

In 2003 the AHPCO Cell was developed. Rhodium was now added as a catalyst and improved hydration compounds were also added. Plus, a total new target concept was used. A 360 degree cell provided maximum exposure of the catalysts. The bulb was reworked and a HE/UV Broad Spectrum bulb with a heavy duty filament was developed, the majority of which is converted into airborne hydro peroxides (H2O2), hydroxyl ions (OH-), super oxide ions (O2-) and ozonide ions (O3-) via the Quad-Nano Xtreme™ quad-metallic catalyst. This combined with a soft start ballast gave the new AHPCO Cell an unprecedented 3 year, 25,000 hour life. This was a major improvement over the current standard 8,000-10,000 hour UV bulb life. The most important improvement was the efficacy, the new cell design created more hydro peroxides and super oxide ions, with ozone levels of .01-.015 ppm or less. Country or forest air usually has round .01-.02 ppm of ozone. Most people can smell ozone at .01 ppm, and .05 ppm is the federal safe limit for medical devices. The new cell also produces hydroxide ions and ozonide ions.

By using a AHPCO™ Cell with redundant oxidizers the scope of effectiveness is widely broadened.

In March of 2006 the new Quad-Nano Xtreme™ catalyst coating was introduced. With this new patent-pending coating a fifth powerful catalyst metal was added. Air Oasis also reduced the metal particle size down to a nano-size particle in order to increase the surface area and therefore increase the kinetic rate of reaction. The hydrophilic gel was also improved to further hydrate the coating and react in combination with the metal catalysts (by donating hydrogen to the ozone) to decompose ozone to form hydroxide ions and radicals, as well as hydro peroxides, such as the HO2 radical and hydrogen peroxides, which are desirable reaction products from the decomposition of ozone due to their strong oxidizing properties, which enhances the germicidal effect of UV radiation.

While competitors are using TiO2 alone with no hydrating agents or other less effective catalyst coatings, Air Oasis is setting the trend for the next generation of air purifiers.

The Air Oasis uses a AHPCO™ Cell, (Advanced Hydrated Photocatalytic Oxidation technology). The cell consists of a special broad spectrum high intensity ultraviolet (UV) lamp. The improved UV lamp cell technology Air Oasis has achieved an astonishing 25,000 hour (3 year) life span instead of the usual 1 year. The UV light is targeted on a hydrated quad metallic catalyst. With this catalyst the ozone created by the UV lamp is converted into friendly, safe and aggressive oxidizers that revert back to oxygen and hydrogen. The AHPCO Cell produces minimum ozone levels well below the amount considered safe by the EPA. AHPCO Cell technology has been successfully tested and approved to combat a variety of indoor air quality concerns. Note: Danger / Never look directly at the illuminated AHPCO Cell.
