Alcor Space-Grade Air Sanitizer

INTRODUCING ALCOR Alcor is an UV-C powered air sanitizer designed to clear enclosed environments from pathogens like bacteria, viruses and smog, while performing continuous air analyses. The device captures the air from the environment, forces it through a path where it is irradiated with UV-C light, and then releases the sanitized air flow back in the environment. The radiation, emitted by LED, is shielded and concentrated inwards to avoid leakage, enabling Alcor to purify the air of an enclosed environment without health risk connected to the exposure to ultraviolet light. Alcor is a smart home device that revolutionizes the world of sanitization and disinfection of air and surfaces in apartments, offices, schools, in all commercial activities. Alcor removes at its base any air contaminant like viruses and bacteria with an effectiveness of up to 99.9%, analyzing indoor air quality and making a continuous assessment of indoor environmental health. The device is portable and lightweight, it emits no odors and poses no risk to anyone within the environment. FIELD TESTING: SMOPS Alcor is intended to be used in environments for long-term space missions, like space stations, and Mars and Moon bases. The first test of this scenario is SMOPS (space medicine operations), a two-week mission where analog astronauts will test technologies and operations related to the use of space medicine on Mars, to assess and mitigate any possible health emergency throughout a long-term stay. Alcor will initially be installed at the Mars Base in Utah to help improve crew health and wellbeing, and to prepare the technology for its future use in missions beyond Earth Orbit. TECHNOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES Light with frequency in the UV-C spectrum interacts with DNA and RNA and its amino acids, breaking them and making them biologically inactive. The first to study this effect was the Nobel Prize winner Niels Finsen. Alcor is a patented-deposited technology.
