Hyderabad startup launches virus air purifier

Hyderabad: Providing relief to business establishments and indoor spaces during Vivid times, one Hyderabad-based startup has launched India’s first Ion-based Covid solution called Wolf Air Mask.

The portable device can discharge upto 100 trillion negative ions per cm3/seconds. It can neutralise the harmful virus and microbes present in the air by binding the surface protein/spike protein of the Coronavirus or any other harmful virus, the company said in a statement.

Jagadeesh Bakthavachalam from Taradiddle Digital LLP, the company that introduced Wolf Air

Mask said, “With the current surge in Covid cases, Wolf Air Mask is being used extensively nation-wide to suppress the spread and ensure a healthy work environment by numerous government bodies like medical colleges and corporations.”

He added “This device is achieving an efficacy rate of 99.9 per cent after numerous tests conducted by ICMR‘s top-rated laboratory and research centre under the Central government called RGCB.

Explaining the working of the product, the company said that the negative ions stuck to the surface of the virus, transforms into highly oxidising OH Radicals and draws out the Hydrogen from the protein spike of the virus. “The protein from which the hydrogen has been taken is degraded and the OH Radical returns as Water. This Sequence is performed instantly and thereby eliminating and neutralising the presence of virus and microbes,” it said in a statement.

Wolf Air Mask is being assembled in India, the major parts of the product are imported.
