What types of air pollutants can be removed by a Purification and Ionisation Airwasher?

A Purification and Ionisation Airwasher is a device that uses ionization technology to help clean the air and remove various pollutants. Its core technology is to use negative ion generation and electrostatic action to absorb harmful substances in the air, thereby purifying indoor air. The following are the main types of air pollutants that the device can effectively remove:

1. Fine particles
PM2.5 and PM10 are the main components of air pollution, which usually come from traffic exhaust, industrial emissions, construction, smoke, etc. Because their particles are extremely fine, they can easily enter the human respiratory tract and cause long-term health damage to the lungs and heart. The Purification and Ionisation Airwasher uses negative ions to electrostatically adsorb these tiny particles, helping them to settle to the ground or be captured by the filter. Through this action, PM2.5 and PM10 particles in the air will be significantly reduced, and the air quality will be effectively improved.

2. Harmful gases
Indoors, especially in newly renovated or newly purchased furniture environments, the air often contains high concentrations of volatile organic compounds such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene. These gases not only have irritating odors, but can also cause health problems such as headaches, nausea, and allergies. Long-term exposure may even cause cancer. Purification Ionization air purifiers release negative ions to combine with these harmful gas molecules, destroy their structure, convert them into harmless substances or adsorb them into the filter of the device. Especially in the indoor environment after decoration, ionization technology can effectively reduce the concentration of formaldehyde and VOCs and improve indoor air quality.

3. Bacteria and viruses
There are a large number of pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses hidden in the air. They can be transmitted through the air and cause respiratory infections or other health problems. Ionization air purifiers can directly react with microorganisms in the air by releasing negative ions, destroying their cell walls or DNA structures, thereby inhibiting the growth and spread of bacteria and viruses. In addition, negative ions can also help remove harmful particles in the air and reduce the risk of airborne diseases. They are especially suitable for hospitals, public places and high-risk groups.

4. Allergens
Pollen, dust mites, pet hair, etc. are common allergens, especially in spring and autumn, when the concentration of pollen in the air is high. Many people are prone to allergic reactions due to contact with these allergens. Ionization air purifiers can release negative ions, which can negatively charge these tiny particles suspended in the air and adsorb them to the filter of the device, or remove them from the air through sedimentation. This can greatly reduce the occurrence of allergic symptoms and improve the quality of life for people with allergies.

5. Smoke and odor
In smoking families, catering places or environments with many pets, smoke and odor in the air often make people feel uncomfortable. Harmful substances in smoke not only damage the respiratory tract, but also adhere to the room for a long time, causing odor. Ionization air purifiers can decompose harmful chemicals in smoke and effectively neutralize odor molecules through chemical reactions between negative ions and these odor molecules, thereby eliminating indoor odors. This plays a very important role for smoking families, restaurants or pet families, and can make the air fresher.

6. Mold spores
In a humid environment, mold spores will multiply rapidly and spread through the air. Mold spores not only cause a decline in air quality, but may also cause allergic reactions, asthma and other respiratory diseases. Ionization air purifiers can ionize mold spores in the air by releasing negative ions, and adsorb them into filters or remove them by sedimentation. This action helps reduce the risk of mold growth and improve air cleanliness.

7. Heavy metal particles
Some purification ionization air purifiers can also remove tiny heavy metal particles in the air, such as lead, mercury, and chromium. These particles usually come from industrial pollution, automobile emissions, etc. Heavy metals are highly toxic to the human body, and long-term inhalation can cause serious damage to health. Ionization air purifiers remove these tiny particles from the air through electrostatic adsorption, reducing the risk of exposure.

8. Ozone and ozone precursors
Although ozone itself has a certain effect on air purification, excessive concentrations of ozone can irritate the respiratory tract, especially for children, the elderly and people with respiratory diseases, which may cause discomfort. High-quality ionizing air purifiers are usually designed not to produce excessive ozone and to effectively neutralize ozone precursors in the air, thereby avoiding the generation of ozone pollution. This ensures that the air purifier can purify the air without producing side effects that are harmful to health.
