The Snapcat is an advanced air oxidation technology.
Unlike spray deodorizers, Snapcat actually eliminates odor and harmful
bacteria. Working in conjunction with our UV air purifiers, you have a cost effective
air sterilization system.
Heterogeneous Photo-Catalytic Oxidation (PCO) eliminates concentrations of organic
contaminants from gaseous effluents by converting them to safe substances such as
water vapor or carbon dioxide. Our air purifier with germicidal protection and
Snapcat Photo-Catalytic Oxidation removes musty odors, pet dander, viruses, mold,
bacteria, and other airborne pathogens.
Eliminates VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Irradiates the
furnace - air conditioning coils and makes them like new again, increasing
air flow and efficiency. Helps clean and sanitize air ducts
and kill mold while eliminating odors throughout the entire home.
Snapcat™ can be added to your existing CaluTech UV air purifier in seconds.
It fits all CaluTech air purifiers.
Snapcat™ is based on the most advanced nano-technology Photo-Catalysis.
In the presence of our UV light source and natural moisture in the air, oxygen is
formed on the Snapcat™ plate's surface. This intelligently breaks down
unwanted odors, pungent smells, allergens, air pollutants and harmful toxins
through an oxidation process. Snapcat™ protects you from any absorption of
pollutants that may otherwise accumulate in an enclosed area. Snapcat™
is ideal for any workplace, gyms, schools, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, day
care centers and homes. Snapcat™ not only attacks and decomposes the
cause of odors, but also continuously offers an air purifying effect year round,
creating a healthy environment. In greenhouses Snapcat™ destroys
organic pollutants, and plants thrive on the carbon dioxide those pollutants are
converted to.
Traditional air purifiers work by forcing air through the machine, where their
effectiveness is largely dependent on the size of the room and the amount
of the air that can be treated at one time. Some of the more advanced
technology such as ozone generators create harmful byproducts that are
hazardous to your health. Snapcat™ photo-catalyst air oxidation combined with
our UV-C light germicidal air purifier is an invisible air purification system that
continuously maintains a pure and clean environment, and it is a silent
air purifier. Simply turn on the UV system and let the purification process begin.
If you already own a CaluTech UV air purifier, you can easily add the
Snapcat™ snap-on strips to your existing UV lamps.
Snapcat™ is a Patent Pending product which allows a simple, yet effective
way to utilize photo-catalytic oxidation technology in your home. The photo-catalytic strips
are different than some UV air purifier models made by others, which use a simple
piece of titanium metal in the attempt to produce a catalyst oxidation process.
Titanium Dioxide, or Titania (chemical name tiO2) is a product not produced by nature
and not made from titanium metal. It is extracted mainly from rutile beach sand and
when it is used in the Snapcat™ process it becomes an powerful oxidizer which
reacts with UV light below 385nm. The Snapcat™ strips are manufactured and
coated with a very pure titanium dioxide which is baked on the Snapcat™ strip.
This coating lasts for 5 years or more. Adding Snapcat™ technology to
CaluTech's UV air purification gives you a superior method for air purification.
UV-C germicidal light produced by the CaluTech product line eliminates viruses,
mold, bacteria, and other living airborne pathogens by modifying the living
organism's DNA, preventing them from reproducing, and causing the organisms
to die. Adding Snapcat™ strips to our UV air purifiers causes a reaction
between the UV light and the strips. This reaction is called Heterogeneous
Photo-catalysis, or quite simple Photo-Catalytic Oxidation (PCO) Technology.
The PCO process generates hydroxyl radicals which are among the most
powerful oxidizers. live UV-C light, these oxidizers destroy microorganisms in the
air, but the advantage is the ability for these oxidizers to reach living organisms in
places where the UV-C light cannot reach. In addition, because titanium dioxide is a
semiconductor it absorbs UV light and breaks down volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
such as odors and gases like carbon monoxide or nitrous oxide. These gases are converted
into carbon dioxide, rendering them complete harmless. All you have left is pure
clean air!
Titania is found in processed food, toothpaste, and cosmetics. We eat it and wear it,
and now it can clean our air! It is a powerful photo-catalyst. When it is in the UV light,
it doesn't burn up like living organisms because it is a semi-conductor type photo-catalyst.
It is an extremely powerful oxidizer, lethal to odors and mold but harmless to us.
