Satair is to distribute Aviation Clean Air (ACA) Air Ionisation and Purification System.
The patented ACA airborne deactivates airborne pathogens, viruses and bacteria while congruently reducing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and odours.
Matt Jessee, Head of Business Development, Global Distribution, Satair says: “This product has been utilised in VIP and military operation for years, and now will be made available to all airline customers via Satair.”
The system uses needlepoint bipolar ionisation (NPBI) technology. It works by leveraging an electronic charge to create a high concentration of positive and negative ions. These ions travel through the air continuously seeking out and attaching to particles, setting in motion a continuous pattern of particle combination. As these particles become larger, they are eliminated from the air with increased speed. Additionally, positive and negative ions have microbicidal effects on pathogens, ultimately reducing the infectivity abilities of viruses and bacterial pathogens.
Howard Hackney, Managing Director of Aviation Clean Air, commented, “Test results have proven that our needlepoint bipolar ionisation concept neutralises many pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2 without representing any health risks, as this technology does not create ozone.”
