Air Decontamination Professional

Air Decontamination for Hospitals and

Laboratories

Genano® – Professional Air Decontamination Technology

www.genano.com

Genano technology® superior capabilities are based on patented method for purification, which removes all particles. Genano Air Purifiers remove down to nanometre size particles from indoor air, unmatched by any other air purifying technology. Several medical studies have now established that the ultra fine particles are the most hazardous for human health.

Genano Technology® kills microbes (viruses, bacte-ria, moulds and yeast, etc.) unlike competitive HEPA-filter which collects pathogens and in the presence of heat and moisture may reactivate pathogens and pose a greater problem by releasing microbial toxins.

Genano Air Purifiers are equipped with an effective active carbon absorber removing VOCs, fumes and odours. Devices with filter technologies are penalized to use such systems because of increased pressure drop from additional filtering mechanism.

Genano technology cleans the air in free air flow, so the air volume and the purification level are constant at all times. Genano Air Purifiers do not get clogged up by large amounts of particles as is the case with HEPA filters, so no exchange of expensive filters is required.

Captures all particle sizes, it is effective for down to nanometre sized particles (1 nm = one millionth of a millimetre)

It eliminates and kills organic particles such as bacteria and viruses

Eliminates gases and odours

Economical solution (no filter change, durable, low maintenance costs)

Genano removes far smaller particles than HEPA filters

Genano technology® advantages:

Genano technology

Genano® air purifiers can be used for specific areas where it is necessary to remove impurities which have come to existence inside the area or which have entered it through a ventilation system. Genano units can also be equipped with positive or negative pressure adaptor kits in order to create cleanrooms or isolation rooms.

Genano® purifiers come in different models that can be integrated into existing air ventilation ducts or installed as an independent unit (ceiling-wall-mobile).

Genano Medical Air Decontamination units(mobile or with positive/negative pressure assembly kit) can be used in: Labs, hospitals, medical centers, private clinics, general practioners, pharmacies,

cleanrooms, isolation wards, ICU, OR, haematology, oncology, waiting areas, burns unit, transplant, neonatology, treatment rooms, COPD, asthma, patient rooms, hospital labs, diagnostic labs, recovery rooms, bronchoscopy, BMT etc. Protection of immunocompromised patients, staff, visitors Preventing airborne infections: MRSA, C-DIFF, MERS, SARS, TB, nosocomial germs Preventing product cross contamination

MEDICAL AND LABS

Pulmonary. AZ Herentals Hospital in BelgiumIn order to prevent the risk of cross contamination of infectious patients (e.g. open TBC), negative pressure patient rooms were made using Genano units.

Oncology. AZ Vesalius Hospital in BelgiumIn the oncology department Genano technology is used to protect patients undergoing chemotherapy and staff from aerosol nosocomial infection.

Haematology and Isolation rooms. Warsaw, Chorzow, Gdansk and Poznan Hospitals in PolandIsolation rooms for infectious patients and aseptic rooms for haematology treatment of immunocompromised patients are equipped with Genano air decontamination systems connected to ventilation air duct to provide purified air into sealed room.

Operating theatre. Wellness Klinik Hospital in BelgiumGenano units are purifying and disinfecting the air in the operating theatres.

Operating theatre. Constanta District, Burghele, Colentina and St.Maria Hospitals in RomaniaGenano positive pressure solution is effectively cleaning the air in District Hospital of Constanta cardiovascular surgery department and ORs in 3 different Bucharest hospitals.

Genano is useful in laboratories for several different applications: To create very effective and cost efficient ISO 5/6/7

cleanroom levels compared to existing HEPA solution To protect the laboratory staff and production of molecular

particles from nanometre size aerosol pollution To protect the production from cross contamination To purify the air before its access to the enzyme production

process in a molecular biological company which is working in biological enzyme development To purify both R&D and production laboratories, where the assay contamination is minimized To purify PCR amplicons, bacteria and viruses from the air To keep HEPA filters clean in enzyme packing machines To save money by avoiding expensive HEPA filter changes

Fertility Lab. University Hospital Leuven andImelda Ziekenhuis Hospital in BelgiumAccording to European directives, laboratories dealing with human tissue should have an air quality based on a class D cleanroom according to GMP. The hospitals have equipped their fertility labs with Genano units, making sure the air quality is complying with regulation and creating a positive pressure in the laboratory. This resulted in permanent air quality comparable with an ISO 7 cleanroom.

Microbial eliminationMicrobial elimination is verified in several laboratory studies. In a study conducted by MetropoliLab, different microbial spe-cies were introduced to the Genano air purification device. A filter cloth was installed on the top of the machine to collect any microbes that might come through. After the contamination test the collector chamber was cleaned and microbial samples were taken from the washing liquid and the filter cloth. None of the samples showed any trace of viable microbes.

Different microbial removal ability tests from air have been performed in several internationally recognised laboratories, e.g. Karol Marcinkowski University of Medical Sciences in Poland, LNE France and The University of Greifswald in Germany.

Nano-sized particle removalNano-sized particle removal has been tested in Finland by the Institute of Occupational Health. The test result of the filtering efficiency of the device was extremely high for all tested particle size classes, even for the nano-sized particles.

The particle measurements have been made in Finland by VTT, Technical Research Centre of Finland. VTT has also examined the removal ability of DNA fragments from the air.

Efficient removal of gasesGas extraction ability was studied by several customer sites e.g. SUERC (The Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre) laboratory where the indoor air VOC value decreased significantly.

Effective gas removal is based on the operation of the designed active carbon filter of the device. The active carbon is capable of removing a wide range of harmful gases.
