Personal air purifier
A personal air purifier is an miniaturized air purification device you can
wear on your neck or clip to your shirt pocket. Such a personal air cleaner
is used to protect your personal breathing space, which includes the space
right in front your mouth, nose and eyes.
When would you use a personal air purifier? Even if you use a normal size air
cleaner in your home or office, there are still many situations that a
standard air filter just cannot cover. In particular, indoor space crowded
with other people, such as air plane or air port, shopping mall, and so
on. This is where a small wearable personal air cleaner is most helpful.
The crowded indoor spaces is where you are most likely to catch various air
borne germs, such as flu and colds. Once you catch them, those virus
infections are difficult to control with medications. So, prevention is the
best cure. A personal air purifier is one of the most effective ways to
protect yourself from getting sick after an air travel.

as an effective way to repel allergens. Especially in situations when you
cannot avoid those allergens otherwise.
A personal air purifier works via non thermal ionic corona discharge
(plasma), a quite a unique air decontamination mechanism that differentiate
this device from, for example, an air ionizer. It
creates electrostatic forces that effectively repel particles of air
contaminants (from 0.3 to 3.0 microns in size) and kill germs in your personal
space.
