Bipolar Ionization Reduce the Transmission of COVID-19 & Improve Indoor Air Quality in the Workplace
Bipolar ionization has emerged as one of the most effective weapons in the fight against the transmission of COVID-19.
Benefits of Bipolar Ionization • Proven technology in controlling SARS
(COVID 19), norovirus, and strains of influenza • Improving indoor air quality in the workplace, protects health and imrpoves productivity • Increases filter efficiency in capturing indoor air contaminants, including viruses, mold, bacteria, and allergens • Breaks down VOCs andd odorus gases • Continuosly cleans the air in the entire space, not just the treatment unit

• Leaves no metallic taste in the air • Does not produce ozone

How It Works Bipolar ionization is the process of taking oxygen from the air and charging it to create ions. Charged ions then attach to microparticles in the air, such as viruses, mold, bacteria, and allergens, and deactive those microparticles. In the case of viruses, deactiviation occurs when ions cause a chemical reaction on the surface of the virus cell membrane, thus inactivating the virus. Also, by causing the microparticles to cluster, the charged ions make the microparticles larger and more easily captured by a centalized filtration system.
Pathogen Reduction
Air Filtration
Bipolar ionization has already proven effective against SARS, norovirus, and has recently been evaluated for its effectiveness in controlling the transmission of COVID-19. According to a June 10, 2020 press report, needlepoint bipolar ionization demonstrated a 99.4% reduction rate on a SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) surface strain within 30 minutes when simulating aircraft conditions.
In addition to managing mold, bacteria, viruses, and allergens, the charged ions created by bipolar ionization can also attach to droplets expelled when breathing, coughing, or sneezing and to dust particles, all of which contribute to the spread of viruses. By attaching to and clustering doplets and dust, these particles are made larger and more readily captured by an air filtration system. The result is cleaner, healthier air for building occupants.
