SITAL KLIMA INDUSTRIES SRL – BIOXIGEN

Bioxigen is a unique, innovative and certified air sanitization and deodorization system.

The ionization phenomenon triggers reactions of oxidation reduction on organic volatile compounds reducing the pollutants present in the environments in a calibrated and sizable way and with measurable effects.

On the micro-organisms (like viruses and bacteria) the Bioxigen ionization causes damages to the cell membrane preventing their vital functions.

Bioxigen is designed either for direct applications in enclosed space, or inside the AHU, or in the airflow to sanitize ducts. R&D department steadily studies performances improving and new application areas.

The effectiveness of BioxigenR system has been verified in different fields from important Research Institutes and Universities, among them there are University of Padua (environmental medicine department), University of Udine (alimentary science department).

Bioxigen has obtained the validation of efficacy from the German authority TÜV Hessen and LabAnalysis defined Bioxigen as “effective against all enveloped viruses (including the coronaviruses such as SARS-Cov-2)

Effects of ionization

1. Reduction of the microbial content of the air
2. Reduction of the microbial content of surfaces
3. VOC reduction
4. Improvement of environmental conditions

The negative oxygen ion O2- produced by the system, also known as superoxide anion, has the possibility of reacting through redox reactions with volatile substances in the air, for example: VOC, odors, ammonia, etc .; it also has a proven microbicidal effect by significantly reducing the microbial load carried by the particulate matter and also a microbicidal effect on the surfaces of the environment.

The microbicidal activity is carried out through oxidation reactions of the proteins constituting the membrane of the bacteria. The membrane has the function of selecting the substances to be exchanged with the outside by the metabolic system of the bacteria.

The damages created by the oxidative actions on the membrane determine the loss of the exchange function and consequently the death of the bacteria. This mechanism takes place over a long time as the oxidative action is mild and non-aggressive.
