Environmental System prevents ventilation air contamination.

Press Release Summary:



Secure Environmental System(TM) (SES) ecologically safe technology which prevents contamination of building ventilation air from outside sources. It also exchanges temperature and humidity between airstreams with bactericidal and virucidal desiccant transfer solution, which provides energy recovery and removes airborne contaminants. Ventilation and exhaust air are handled by separate units; no cross leakage or microbiological cross-contamination of exhaust air to ventilation air can occur.

Kathabar Provides Secure Environmental System(TM) to Prevent Contamination of Building Ventilation Air



(May 5, 2009 - Buffalo, NY) Contaminants from the environment such as biological agents, SARS, and swine influenza A (H1N1) can enter buildings through ventilation systems. Kathabar Secure Environmental System(TM) (SES) is an ecologically safe technology which prevents the contamination of building ventilation air from outside sources. Designed for government, military, medical, laboratories, and other critical facilities, Kathabar's SES:

o Acts as a scrubber to capture airborne contaminants
o Helps protect interior spaces against outside biological attacks, pandemics/epidemics, viruses/germs, and airborne matter
o Ensures no microbiological cross-contamination

Secure Environmental System also exchanges temperature and humidity between airstreams with a desiccant transfer solution, providing energy recovery. The air is scrubbed by the desiccant solution as it passes through high-efficiency packing in each section. System design utilizes separate supply and exhaust air units connected only with piping. Since ventilation and exhaust air are handled by separate units, no cross leakage or microbiological cross-contamination of exhaust air to ventilation air can occur.

The desiccant transfer solution employed by this technology is bactericidal and virucidal to most airborne microorganisms. SES removes airborne bacteria, viruses, and mold from the ventilation air to improve indoor air quality. These same impurities are removed from the exhaust air, which is a great benefit for the neighboring environment. 100% of the airborne bacteria, viruses, and mold captured in the desiccant solution are neutralized upon contact.
