EDFE (Enveloping Dynamic Fluid Energy)
Non-thermal plasmas can be generated in several ways. Depending upon the science behind the plasma's formation, this gives rise to the disparate ways in which the plasma is used. Cold plasma technology [1][2][3][4][5][6] forms the basis for PDD (Pacify, Denature, Destroy) activity within an autoclave or air cleaning unit that utilizes this form of air management process within a PDD Zone. The PDD Zone contains, at its core, EDFE (Enveloping, Dynamic, Fluid, Energy). This is an advancement and further development of non-thermal/cold plasma technology.
Historically, cold plasmas have been tuned to work in a specific way, against a specific contaminant. EDFE allows a machine to generate a “fluid non-thermal plasma field” that envelopes outward to exponentially fill its containment zone (the PDD Zone). This field is fluid in more than one way; it is a fluid energy source that dynamically moves across the light spectrum and electrical wavelengths. A machine utilizing enveloping, dynamic fluid energy harnesses the science of biophysics and creates this fluid energy. This low-powered, non-thermal plasma-based disruptive field of electrons actively clears the air of contamination being carried through a PDDZ. Enveloping, dynamic fluid energy used within a PDDZ can be developed to meet a variety of environments and challenges by integrating units into existing air handling and conditioning units.
Bacteria
Stresses generated within a PDDZ physically rupture the cell walls of bacteria passing through the plasma and then break down the proteins within the cell, thus rendering it dead.
Enveloped Virus
Enveloped viruses are attacked as they enter the PDDZ. The disruptive field within a PDDZ physically denatures the envelope through the application of plasmatic stresses. The protein bonds are disrupted, enabling the nucleate building blocks of the viral chain to disassociate and therefore denaturing the virus, rendering it ineffective.[7][8]
Non-Enveloped Viruses
Non-enveloped viruses are attacked as they enter the PDDZ. The protein bonds are bombarded to a point that the protein bonds rupture, thus disassociating the nucleic building blocks of the virus and therefore denaturing it, rendering it ineffective.[7][8]
Organic Compounds
Organic compounds that are subjected to similar stresses within the PDDZ can be broken down, disrupted and removed from an airstream. With a targeted approach, it is possible to utilize a PDDZ to reduce contaminants such as volatile organic compounds.
