Viroblitz Technology
Sterilization Test
Environment: Microbiology Sampling Room
Within 2.5 hours, the contamination level was brought down to an operation theater level. Within 4 hours, microbe count was negligible. After 6 hours, microbe count was zero.
Viroblitz | Regular Air Filters |
---|---|
No HEPA filter
Viroblitz destroys viruses, bacteria, fungus, and
organic molecules, including those smaller than 0.3
microns.
|
HEPA Filter
Does not kill viruses. Only removes microbes larger
than 0.3 microns.
|
No Activated Carbon
Viroblitz removes odor by oxidizing organic molecules
with unlimited capacity.
|
Activated Carbon
Activated carbon only removes odor with limited
effectiveness.
|
No Negative Ions
No particle settling.
|
Negative Ions Present
Produces charged dust particles that settle faster.
|
No Ozone
No ozone is produced by viroblitz technology.
|
Ozone
Many produce ozone particles and can react negatively
with organic matter.
|
No UVC
No UVC used. Clean, eco-friendly friendly air.
|
UVC
Kills germs using UVC. Many are highly carcinogenic in
nature.

Clinical Testing
Environment: Casualty ICU
During the trial, 4 patients and 5 to 8 staff were present in the ICU. Both agar plates showed no growth after running Viroblitz for 24 hours.

Pathogens are destroyed by oxidation.
|
Pathogens remain alive on the filter. Operation
theatres routinely change HEPA filters after the
surgery of a hepatitis patient.
|
Once inside the Viroblitz air steriliser, pathogens
are destroyed within 0.16 seconds.
|
Small pressure increase due in the filter blower can
generate tiny tears, causing the pathogens to flow
through the filter.
|
Since the dust filter used in Viroblitz is 3 microns
in size, the energy requirement is substantially
lower.
|
Since a HEPA filter has 0.3 micron pores, the blower
requires a higher power to move air through it.
|
Since the pathogens and the odour are removed, air
conditioning costs are substantially reduced.
|
Since a HEPA filter can’t remove odour, it is
recommended not to recycle the air from it. This
increases air conditioning costs.
|
Special expertise is not needed for dust filter
change.
|
A HEPA filter change should be done only by
specialists. The filter needs to be changed at least
every year. If the air quality is bad, the filter will
have to be replaced twice or three times each year.
|
Initial investment is only a small fraction of a
commerically available chemical sterilization and
filtering unit.
|
A commerically available chemical sterilization and
filtering unit has a high initial investment cost.
|
Destroys all airborne organic matter, including those
below 0.3 microns.
|
Viruses smaller than 0.3 microns can pass through a
HEPA filter with no resistance.

Clinical Testing
Environment: Gastro ICU
During the trial, 4 patients and 5 staff members were present in the ICU. This Gastro ICU was using exhaust fans to manage the bad odour in the room. After 3 hours of using Viroblitz, a substantial reduction in microbe count and odour was noticed. After 24 hours, the typical odour of Gastro ICU was not detectable.
