The issue of air quality in confined environments, and even more so in schools, is a crucial aspect of both protecting the health of students and ensuring good concentration and learning.
Especially the health emergency caused by Covid 19 and the predominantly airborne mode of virus transmission further indicate the need for an effective air treatment process. This can be one of the decisive elements in ensuring the conduct of educational activities while reducing the risk of contagion.
The solution developed by Nippon Gases to comprehensively address air treatment needs in classrooms is the Levante 250 / Levante 500 model.
The device, to be used in the presence of people, ensures the healthiness of environments in maximum safety in fact one of its main features is to have: – zero ozone emissions – zero ultra-fine dust emissions – zero ROS emissions (reactive oxygen species, precursors of carcinogenic products).
The patented technology on which Levante 250 / Levante 500 is based involves a combination of oxidative photocatalysis by means of nontoxic tungsten trioxide catalyst and an additional germicidal and virucidal system, based on a copper nanocluster, this patented photocatalytic filter.
The patented photocatalytic filter is effective not only on viruses such as Sars-CoV-2, but can also break down : -Bacteria – Spores and molds – Pollens and allergens – Bad odors – Smog – Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from furniture, photocopiers and furnishings in general.
The benefit of the tungsten trioxide catalyst is that it avoids the use of UVC light lamps, which are known to produce ozone. In addition, the presence of the copper nanocluster significantly accelerates germicidal potency allowing, as shown by official tests conducted by the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan, Italy, 100% inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 virus in just 30 minutes.
Thanks to the patented technology used, GemGas sanitizing devices also have additional advantages: – low energy consumption – low noise – no consumables
