Title:
HIGH ENERGY FIELD AIR PURIFIER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004110584
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for sterilizing airborne pathogens and reducing airborne pollutants in air (230) for buildings, aircraft, or other structures. The apparatus is capable of high air flows and is optionally integrated with an efficient air heating/cooling system. High fields are produces by a static, preferably infrared, field combined with a high intensity microwave field. This combination allows fields to develop that are high enough in intensity to kill pathogens and dissociate contaminant molecules and other pollutants. The heat produced by the field generators (220,90,150) is optionally used to operate an absorption chiller (40) too cool and dehumidify, or alternatively heat, the sterilized air before it is returned to the building or structure. Also a method and apparatus for vehicle emissions control, providing significant pollutant reductions in vehicle exhaust without significant heating the exhaust and with very low backpressures.
