How it Works
Mother Nature uses hydroxyl molecules to cleanse and decontaminate our outdoor environment. However, hydroxyls do not occur indoors, so HGI developed a patented process, through years of field testing, and created a solution that mimics Mother Nature by safely generating molecules that naturally "seek and destroy" odour molecules, bacteria, viruses, VOCs, and other chemicals. Hydroxyls actually neutralize odour molecules and gasses by breaking down their chemical bonds. This can be done with even some of the most difficult molecules, such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3).
Hydroxyls
Hydroxyls (HO•) are naturally occurring molecules. They are created in our atmosphere when the sun's ultraviolet rays react with water vapor in the air. Hydroxyls are an important agent that scrub and cleanse our planet's environment.
ODOROX® Hydroxyl Generators replicate this natural process.
The ODOROX® system utilizes patented technologies that for the first time harness multiple UV light wavelength ranges. These wavelengths combined with ambient air humidity create hydroxyls. The ODOROX® hydroxyl generator is a revolutionary device that generates “superior hydroxyls” that safely eliminates bacteria, mildew, mould, noxious gases, and odors from Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) for use in indoor environments.
ODOROX® implements a dual process attack on contaminants
1. The processing chamber sanitizes airflow and produces hydroxyls (HO•).
2. The hydroxyl (HO•) molecules exit the chamber to decontaminate surfaces and contents.
Processing Chamber
Contaminated air is directed into the chamber where ambient humidity and multiple nanometer wavelengths and frequencies combine to create anoxidizing formula and produce hydroxyls.
The quartz crystal optics are finely tuned to deodorize air flow, eradicate bacteria and other microorganisms, and produce hydroxyl molecules.
The purified air is recycled back into the environment along with hydroxyls to further decontaminate surfaces & contents.
The ODOROX® Cascade Effect
Once the hydroxyls are created, they are sent to "seek and destroy" odour molecules, bacteria, viruses, mould, VOCs and other chemicals. The hydroxyls simultaneously decontaminate the air, surfaces, and objects.
This system does not require all of the contaminants within a room to pass through the processing chamber, which guarantees a more rapid and thorough decontamination.
Outside the unit the hydroxyls immediately begin a cascade reaction in the air, creating even more hydroxyls. The cascade of hydroxyls quickly disperse throughout the air and penetrates surfaces and objects.
The hydroxyl molecule that eliminates pollutants in the far corner of the room is not necessarily the same hydroxyl molecule that exited the ODOROX® hydroxyl generator.
Any quenched hydroxyls are continuously replaced by the system, providing a constant flow of hydroxyls.
ODOROX® produces atmospheric hydroxyls that circulate throughout the air and reaches places where you can’t reach. Whereas, other UV technologies only clean the actual air that passes over the UV bulbs (about 20% of the air in a room).
ODOROX® is superior UV technology
- It allows hydroxyls to penetrate into fabrics, porous materials and anywhere air molecules can reach.
- It completely cleans the air and all surfaces in contained spaces.
- It produces atmospheric hydroxyls strong enough to neutralize viruses and bacteria.
Safe & Green
ODOROX® equipment can be used to solve any indoor air problem. These systems use green technology to provide the most effective and efficient solution to eliminate odors, decontaminate surfaces and purify the air. From residential and commercial to industrial and agricultural applications, the ODOROX® line is up to the challenge.
Safe
The ODOROX® UV hydroxyl generating technology does not use any chemicals or create any toxic by-products but merely mimics the earth’s atmospheric cleansing process and brings it indoors. The earth has used this same technique for millions of years proving effective and safe for humans, plants, pets etc.
Now, you can experience this natural, gentle and most effective cleaning agent in your own environment. This is a big departure from the drawbacks of prevailing air purification methods, such as Ozone Generation and Ionizers.
Green
Many companies describe their products and services as “green” but what does that really mean? In the ODOROX® case, we describe this technology as “Green” because it harnesses the same wave energy as the sun and does not use chemicals or produce any residual compounds. It merely uses UV light and humidity to create the hydroxyls to provide a cleaning mechanism. It uses very little energy and cleans some of the toughest odour and bacteria on the planet.
