STERIONIZER - Quality Air, Treatment and Improvement

Over the course of human history, the human body has adapted to the "natural environment" and as such respond to subtle changes in air parameters. The air we breathe has a certain chemical and ionic composition composed of such gases as oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen and their ions, present in certain ratios. Ions of gases are molecules or atoms that have gained or lost one electron. An ion that is missing an electron is called a positive ion, and an ion that has gained an electron is called a negative ion.


In nature ions are generated as a result of the UF sun radiation and soil radioactivity.
he atmospheric air contains 1000 - 4000 negative and 1200 – 5000 positive ions in 1 cm3 (depending on the environment – urban, forest, mountains, etc).

There is no doubt that the human body needs quality air - the natural air composition of chemical and Air Ion (AI) components. We feel the best outdoors, highly energized and relax.

People in modern society spend most of their time in closed premises rather than outdoors, and even though the chemical composition of the indoor air is preserved, the air is de-ionized because of absence of ionization source.

With the advance of air conditioning systems, optimal air parameters including temperature and humidity that influence our comfort were determined. Unfortunately, air conditioning systems acts like de-ionizers and generate air, free of ions, in closed air conditioned environments.

In parallel to development of air conditioning systems, because of the de-ionization problem, research took place in order to define the influence of the effect (complete absence of ions) and the influence of negative or positive ions on human health and comfort.

The investigation revealed disproportionably high impact that the absence of positive and negative ions has on human health. It was found that de-ionized air causes headaches, drowsiness, irritancy and rapid fatigue.

A group of scientists in Germany tested the air deionization impact on mice and rats.

In the experiment, two groups of mice and two groups of rats were situated in identical temperature and humidity environment and received identical nutrition. However, one group of mice and one group of rats resided in de-ionized air environment whereas the control groups were provided with natural air. The mice and the rats residing in the de-ionized air died in two and three weeks respectively whereas the controlled group remained well
