Definitions
- a good air disinfection is especially important when a substantial part of the air introduced into the closed space is recycled, as, for instance, in aeroplanes.
- Eliminating germs by means of poisonous substances is not allowed in most countries, if these substances can reach the space in which persons are present.
- the invention provides a method for the above-mentioned purpose, which does not have these objections, which method is defined in claims 1..5.
- the non-poisonous disinfectant kills fungi, algae and similar organisms, and is active not only in the air flow itself, but, by precipitation thereof on the walls of the duct, also in a prolonged way on the germs precipitating thereon which may return again in the airflow later, so that also these germs can be effectively suppressed.
- the air is ionised, not only microbes and viruses will be effectively suppressed, but also the vapourised disinfectant particles will be charged, so that they will deposit faster on the duct walls.
- the air flowing through the duct is to be moistened, preferably the same disinfectant is added to the water used therefor, in order to counteract thereby the introduction of harmful germs into the duct.
- the system shown in the drawing comprises a part of an air ventilation duct 1, the air flow flowing therein being indicated by arrows 2.
- a flow sensor 3 In the duct 1, as seen in the flow sense, are consecutively arranged a flow sensor 3, an assembly 4 of particularly needle-shaped air ionisation electrodes, an assembly 5 of disinfectant vaporisers, and an ozone sensor 6.
- the flow sensor 3 is adapted to disconnect the pump 10, and, if required, also the electrodes 4, if the air flow 2 decreases below a given threshold value, and it is also possible to adapt the operation of the pump 10 to the air flow rate.
- the ozone sensor 6 is adapted to lower the voltage at the electrodes 4 if an ozone content threshold is exceeded. This voltage should, generally, be lower than 10 kV. In this manner >10 12 ions/s can be produced at a current intensity of some ⁇ A.
- the disinfectant should comply with the most severe requirements imposed by public health services. Therefore it definitely should not contain mercury, formaldehyde, phenol or the like, and, because of fire hazard, in particular in the case of ionisation, the use of alcohol is not allowed either.
- the disinfectant used according to the invention is a quaternary ammonium compound, commercially available under the name "Duner 2000", and being approved by the Swiss inspection service as being non-poisonous ("Gifttre” BAG T 73512 DC).
- This disinfectant consists of a quaternary ammonium complex, in particular a benzyl ammonium chloride, such as n-octyldimethyl, 1,1,3,3-tetrabutyl phenoxy ethyldimethyl or 1,1,3,3-tetrabutyl-o-ethoxydimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride.
- a benzyl ammonium chloride such as n-octyldimethyl, 1,1,3,3-tetrabutyl phenoxy ethyldimethyl or 1,1,3,3-tetrabutyl-o-ethoxydimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride.
- the invention is, however, not restricted to these examples.
- This disinfectant is sold in concentrated form (16 % active substance), and the concentrate will, for example, be added to the water in the reservoir 11 in a ratio of 1:100.
- Preferably demineralised water is used therefor.
- water can be vaporised in a suitable point of the duct 1 and under control of the control apparatus 8, and, as a matter of fact, a humidity sensor can be used then.
- a humidity sensor can be used then.
- the same disinfectant is added to the water used therefor so as to counteract the introduction of fungi, algae and the like.
- the system can, for instance, comprise a microprocessor, and can be connected to remote indicating and/or adjusting means allowing remote control or measurement.
