The science of
optimal indoor
air recycling
Over the past decade, we have dedicated extensive time and resources to research and development, meticulously designing the Airlich technology to optimize indoor air recycling.
Today, we have a solid solution in the market, where optimal recycled clean air is achieved in a multi-step air-cleaning system consisting of a UV irradiation unit for gas-phase chemistry initiation, an electrostatic precipitation unit for particle removal, and a gas enhanced catalysis unit for gas-phase reaction termination and final purification. By utilizing open path systems instead of conventional consumable filtration media, the Airlich system minimizes pressure drops and significantly reduces the need for consumable parts when compared to traditional HVAC systems.
Accelerating cleaning power in 3 unique steps
The cleaning processes used by the Airlich system mirrors the self-cleaning mechanisms found in the atmosphere. However, with our proprietary technology, we are able to accelerate the cleaning power by 6-7 orders of magnitude.
The process is divided into three key steps, wherein air containing gas-phase and particulate pollutants are subjected to a sequence of advanced cleaning techniques.
The process
Step 1
First, the exhausted air is exposed to vacuum ultraviolet radiation that sets off a radical chain reaction that breaks down, converts, and removes the pollutants from the gas-phase. The majority of the removed gas-phase pollutants are converted to low vapor pressure compounds that will either form particles by themselves or condense on pre-existing particles.
Step 2
Secondly, the air stream is directed through an electric field where particles are charged and subsequently collected as dust on a collection surface without experiencing the significant pressure drops typically associated with traditional filtration systems.
Step 3
Finally, the air undergoes a gas-phase catalytic process that facilitates cold combustion of any remaining high-volatility gas-phase pollutants. This process is aided by energy added to the system through the ultraviolet radiation. The purified air is directed back into the ventilation ducting.
Continuous testing
and reporting
Data is crucial for gaining insight into the benefits of our technology, and the quality of air people in a building are breathing. We continuously collect and analyze data on everything from temperatures and energy consumption, to parts per billion air contamination levels. This enables us to confidently quantify the positive impact of the Airlich technology and what difference our products will make to our costumers.
