The ingredients last longer due to air purification.
Do you know "photocatalyst"?When the light of the sun or fluorescent lamps hits, it is an environmental purifier that produces powerful oxidation and incinerate substances such as organic matter and bacteria in contact.Cartec is a manufacturer of products that use this photocatalyst to purify indoor air.This time, four new products will be released, and one of them is a new product genre that contributes to the reduction of food loss by photocatalyst.Let's introduce the recital immediately.
In the first place, a photocatalyst?
In the first place, what is a photocatalyst?How do you use this?I guess there are many people who think.
When you hear that it purifies the air, you may feel that you are radiating ions and ozone, but there is no such release.The principle is the same as filtering dirt with a filter.The difference is that the filtered dirt is broken down, so it has less time to clean.
The main material of the photocatalyst is titanium dioxide.Titanium dioxide is a common ingredient that is also used for cosmetics, paints, food additives, and buildings of buildings.And has the property of breaking down into carbon dioxide.Oxidation is the same meaning as "burning".
What can be removed with photocatalyst is simply a "burning thing".Bacteria such as pollen, house dust, mold bacteria and odor -causing bacteria, and viruses.Rumors that the new colon virus mutant strain may be air -infected, and if you can remove impurities in the air, you will be worried about the effect.
According to the effect verification, significant results have been significant in the inertization of SARS-COV-2 (new colon virus infection: COVID-19) in liquids and aerosols by photocatalyst.
Food fresh keysper that makes food delicious and durable
One of the new products, the food fresh keysper, is to use the nature of such photocatalysts to increase the preservation of food.It is a box -shaped product with a lid that can be opened and closed on the front.It is so large that one loaf of bread can just enter.Released on December 15, 2021, the expected price is 21,780 yen (tax included, the same hereinafter).
Foods in the main unit that can easily grow mold, such as bread and fruits, cooking dishes, and seasonings that tend to cover the location in the refrigerator, and disinfect the air in the main unit with a photocatalytic unit.Disassemble falling bacteria such as mold bacteria that fall into to increase food preservation.
Not only fruits and vegetables, but also bread, dairy products, seasonings, sake, etc. are OK.It also has a deodorizing effect, so it is effective for what you want to eat with low odor, such as natto and garlic.
The photocatalytic unit of the food fresh keysper is inside the inside silver cover removed.When the power is turned on, the LED glows bluish purple and hits the photocatalyst unit, which generates a powerful oxidation power.
By the way, the care of the photocatalytic unit is only immersed in hot water at 80 to 100 ° C for each photocatalyst filter for more than 15 minutes and dried naturally in the sun.If the usage time exceeds about 3 months, the lamp will encourage you to clean.
In addition, the handle used for opening and closing the hood is made of Yoshino Sugi thinning wood.By using the same color and texture of wood in a place where you can touch it every day, the point is that the texture comes out as you use it.
3 products that purify the air in a pinpoint space
Three types of removal deodorizers using photocatalysts were also announced at the same time.The background of the release of the release at once was a global semiconductor shortage, and it seems that it has been commercialized at a stretch because it has finally realized a large amount of procurement.Among them, "Multi -Fresh Air" is a product that is particularly eye -catching with a Showa -tic design.
The shape and size are just the same as the VHS tape.On the surface of the main body, there is a nostalgic floral pattern picture as seen in a grandmother's house.This is also released on December 15th, and the assumed actual sale price is 21,780 yen.
The point is that the point is that it is easy to carry with a battery and can be installed in a small place.It can be installed both vertically or horizontally, and the side is an arched shape, so even if it is installed on the wall, you can secure a path of air, such as inhaling or blowing.If you put it in the corner of the refrigerator, you can expect to remove and deodorize the inside of the warehouse.
In addition, it would be good to use pets with pets, bathwashes, shoe boxes (shoe boxes), closet, storage rooms (closets), smoking areas, etc. to deodorize.
The battery drive time is about 1.5 weeks in Normal mode.It is about 3 weeks in ECO mode, and the charging time is about 12 hours.According to President Somei, "If the battery runs out, it will cry."The body size is 105 x 188 x 33mm in height, and weighs about 350g.
Next is the "spot air" that blows the purified air from the ceiling to the limited area of the floor.The image is "air curtain" with beautiful air.It can be used at home, of course, but the main thing is that it assumes a cashier, reception, salon, and food factories that are close to customers.With a design like a pin spot light seen in theaters, the body color is developed in two colors, white and black.Released on December 17, the expected price is 46,200 yen.
To install a spot air, you need a wiring duct rail that can be removed.It does not have to be installed on the floor like a general air purifier, so it seems easy to use in a place where you want to use the floor widely or in a messy room.If you have a rail, you can blow it out from the bottom like a footlight as well as the ceiling.
The air arrives is up to 2.5 meters, about 1 cubic meters.The body size is diameter 98 x length 210mm, and weighs about 840g.Comes with pinpoint attachments and fall prevention wires.
The last product is "Downlight Air", which is sold for corporations.It is a downlight equipped with an optical catalyst, and even if the light disappears, the deodorizing deodorization with the photocatalytic filter lasts 24 hours.Switching one lighting such as a corridor to this helps to remove the corridor.
The body size is 124 x 97mm long and the body color is white.KL-L01 is a light bulb color and KL-L02 is lunch white.Each has a human sensor and no human sensor.Scheduled to be released in mid -January 2022, the reference price is 38,500 yen with a sensor and 35,200 yen without a sensor.The detection range of a human sensor is within about 5 meters.The height of the ceiling is 2.5-3 meters.
Planning products related to food and water in the future
We introduced four products using photocatalysts.Kaltech, a developer, is a young company founded in 2018.The company name comes from the combination of "Katalytis" and "Technology", which represents the catalyst in Greek.
As a company's philosophy, "Saving the Earth with photocatalyst", as a product that is working on air purification with photocatalyst, large -scale type of sterilization deodorizers, sterilization deodorizers, and exclusions for in -vehicle in -vehicle.I have released bacterial deodorizers.
In the future, it is said that it will work on reducing food waste loss loss, starting with a food fresh keysper, and plans a special container to prevent deterioration of the moving ingredients.At the beginning of 2022, the first exhibition to CES2022 was also planned.From next fiscal year, we plan to work on the fields to purify water, and beyond that, we will work on efforts to realize the hydrogen society.
In addition to its own websites, the sales route is online for home electronics retailers nationwide.I don't think there is a consumer electronics retailer that has a photocatalyst corner, so if you can't find it at the air purifier section, you can find a cooking home appliance counter, the fresh air is a refrigerator section, and the spot air is a lighting counter.It looks good.
There are still few products that use photocatalysts in the market, and the unit price of the product tends to be expensive.Since the disinfecting performance (decomposition energy) is about 1.5 times that of ozone and 2.2 times that of hypochlorous acid, I hope that the entire product category will grow, increase production, and descend in the popular price range.is not it.
