A Russian company specializing in the production of electronic technologies has created a new device for sterilizing the air of passenger planes, the effectiveness of which exceeds 99.9 percent.
The device called “Teocraft” is able to purify the air of all known viruses, including the emerging corona virus. It can be used while the aircraft is preparing for the flight and while the aircraft is in flight.
The device is able to purify the air of particles with a size of 10 nanometers, knowing that the size of the virus that causes the Covid-19 pandemic ranges between 50 and 200 nanometers.
The state-run Rostec State Corporation, which manages the modern technical production sector in Russia and to which the Electronic Technologies Company belongs, stated, quoting Nikolai Kolesov, Director General of the Electronic Technologies Corporation, that the "Teocraft" is usable in all types of aircraft.
