In this study against formaldehyde, the IQAir® was able to reduce the compound the fastest from the chamber due to having a much higher loading of media. The Molekule® did not have much impact on the formaldehyde in this study. The BlueAir® HEPA media and bare carbon filter did show some physical absorption of formaldehyde, but physical absorption is very prone to releasing whatever it may have absorbed over time since there is no chemical interaction. The EnviroKlenz® Air System does actively react with the formaldehyde through adsorption and polymerization on the oxide surface of the EnviroKlenz® media.

In this chamber study, ammonia was released into an environmental chamber under ambient conditions. The EnviroKlenz® Air System rapidly adsorbed the ammonia gas from the air.  The IQAir system which utilizes a significant amount of an activated carbon did remove the ammonia from the air, but since carbon is not reactive, there is the potential for it to be released back to the atmosphere with changes in temperature, pressure, and or humidity levels. The bare carbon filter had minimal absorption of the ammonia. The Blue Air purifier utilizes HEPA filtration and only some physical absorption of the ammonia on the HEPA filter media was observed.  The Molekule system did not remove or break down the hydrogen sulfide in the test.

In this chamber study, hydrogen sulfide was released in an environmental chamber under ambient conditions. The EnviroKlenz® Air System rapidly reduced and neutralized the acidic gas from the air. The IQAir system did remove the H2S from the air, but since carbon is not reactive, there is the potential for the hydrogen sulfide to be released back to the atmosphere with changes in temperature, pressure, and or humidity levels.  The Blue Air purifier utilizes HEPA filtration and only some physical absorption of the acid gas on the HEPA filter was observed.  The Molekule system did not rapidly remove the hydrogen sulfide and a bare carbon filter did not absorb or adsorb the acid gas.

*The IQAir uses a carbon filter that contains well over 5 pounds of media.  The EnviroKlenz® Air Cartridge is able to achieve the same results with less than ½ pound of media! This means fewer change-outs and money spent on replacing carbon filters.

In the air chamber studies, our analysts determined and utilized speeds and settings on each system that would process a comparable volume of air. The chemical agent was released in the chamber to the target ppm level for the experiment set. The gas was allowed to stabilize at the target ppm and then the system was remotely turned on. At the end of the experiment, the system was turned off and the chamber was evacuated if needed for the analyst to access the monitor and system. The data was analyzed and plotted as a percent of starting agent ppm versus time.

The EnviroKlenz® Air System has the highest amount of particulate matter filter media with over 56 square feet, IQAir® has approximately 50 square feet, Blue Air® approximately 28 square feet, and the Molekule® particle filter has around 3 square feet of particulate filter media. The more square feet of particulate matter media results in a filter that can capture more particulate matter before needing to be changed.

The EnviroKlenz® Mobile Air System is guaranteed to work against the smallest of allergens, as small as 0.3 microns in size. This system utilizes one of the best types of filtration for allergen substances, a hospital-grade HEPA Filter that is proven to keep your air as clean and pure as possible – especially from those harmful microscopic substances like allergens that float inside your air and eventually into your body.

Cost to operate based on continuous use, 0.12 kw/h, and system running on the highest available setting.

Testing was conducted in a quiet room 30′(L) x 12′(W) with 9′(H) ceiling height. Ambient room reading was taken from the center of the room. The air systems were located along the center of the 12-foot measurement dividing the room in half along the width and 10 feet from the back wall. This spacing allows for 1- and 2-meter measurements from the unit along the length of the room.
