Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, current systems for treating recirculated air are expensive and primarily use UV germicidal lamps
These products require professional installation, are not easily accessible by the general public themselves, and have not been used to kill COVID-19
Also, the filtration in the HVAC system may be ineffective

Embodiment Construction

[0036] The subject matter of this disclosure is directed to a decontamination device for the immediate elimination of viruses such as COVID-19 from circulating air by filtering the pathogens and exposing the pathogens to high temperatures (above 200°C) (above 392°F) pathogen. In doing so, the subject matter of the present disclosure may reduce the infectious spread of viruses and other biological species that may cause future infectious diseases, while providing the public with a sense of safety and peace of mind as they return to the post-COVID-19 world Work, school, living, entertainment and healthcare.

[0037] The primary mechanism of action of the decontamination unit is a dedicated heated filter or barrier heater that uses a low energy, high performance targeted thermally conductive, highly resistant porous metal foam. The disclosed heated filters or barrier heaters can be combined with high efficiency HVAC filters. In addition, ultraviolet light (UV-C) can be added t...

Abstract

The present invention provides a purification device with a heating filter for killing biological species including COVID-19. The device utilizes the supplied power to treat an air flow of an air treatment system of the facility. The frame has a plenum with an inlet and an outlet. The frame is configured to be positioned in an air flow of the air handling system to pass the air flow therethrough.A filter is disposed in the plenum and configured to filter the air flow therethrough up to a filter threshold. An ultraviolet light source disposed in the plenum is connected in electrical communication with the supplied power and is configured to generate ultraviolet radiation in the plenum. A permeable metal barrier disposed in the plenum is configured to obstruct air flow therethrough until anobstruction threshold. The barrier is connected in electrical communication to the supplied power and is heated to a surface temperature.
