Technology

Congratulations on your purchase of the NASA developed Airocide® Photocatalytic Air
Purification System; developed to oxidize all airborne organic matter, even those too small to
be filtered. Airocide’s unique technology employs a reaction chamber packed with tiny
silicone tubes encrusted with a highly reactive titanium dioxide catalyst. When energized by
the system’s 253.7 nanometer UVG lamps, water molecules are split and surface-bound
hydroxyl radicals are formed. Any organic matter, no matter how small, that contacts these
HO- radicals is instantly destroyed. Airocide is listed by the FDA as a Class II medical device
and has been shown by independent Air Quality Labs to be free of any ozone emission. The
process results in only trace amounts of pure water vapor and CO2 . Airocide oxidizes mold
spores, mycotoxins, bacteria, viruses and VOCs (gasses) on contact. Proven on the
International Space Station and Space Shuttle flights, Airocide is simply the one that NASA
developed. Airocide works.
