Constituents of Indoor Air Quality
www.magneto.in
The Air we Breathe
• Food Intake : 03 Meals a day
We make positive healthy choices about the food we eat
• Water Intake : 07-10 Times a day
We drink clean filtered water
• Air : 14-16k Times a day
Indoor Air Pollution is ranked 5th as a cause of ill health worldwide
Its high time our Indoor Air have a health check !!!

3. • Air quality consists of Indoor Air inside our living spaces and Outdoor Air from the environment
• The presence of toxic gases, chemicals or particulate matter in the air degrades its quality
• Indoor air is often 15 to 20 times more polluted than outdoor air
• More than 50% of Indian building are suffering from Sick Building Syndrome
What is Air Quality
www.magneto.in
• In India, half a million children die annually
from indoor air pollution due to acute
respiratory infections
• VOCs, Formaldehyde, hydrogen sulfide and
CO are extremely harmful to humans.
• Cases of asthma, bronchitis and other
respiratory problems shoot up leading to
other medical problems.

This means that the concentration of gases and pollutants inside is far higher than the
outdoor atmosphere. This leads to major health risks.

6. • Health care structure in the country is over-burdened by increasing population
• Mitigating burden of disease
• Infectious
• Chronic degenerative
• Healthcare finance
• Prevalence of non-communicable diseases
• Rise of psychological disorders
Challenges for Indian Healthcare
www.magneto.in
• Contamination sources
• Infectious Diseases
• Medical devices cross contamination
• Antimicrobial resistance
• Odor Issues
• Hostile Environmental Conditions
• Ventilator associated pneumonia
• Corrosive Atmosphere damaging Equipments

7. Airborne Infectious Diseases
www.magneto.in
Influenza likes to multiply at 98.6° which is the
temperature of the lower respiratory system.
Influenza A infects and destroys its victim’s lung
tissue. Damaged lung tissue has compromised its
protective layers which can lead to pneumonia or
massive bacterial infection.
Influenza - MRSA
www.magneto.in

8. • Respiratory Infection
• Contains genetics from human, avian and swine
flu viruses
• Spreads rapidly
• Named after influenza in pigs
• June, 2009 the epidemic had been verified
worldwide
HINI Flu
www.magneto.in
• India has about one third of patients the world over
• It is estimated that there are about 14 million TB cases
in India
• Annual infection rate of 5 lakh patients
• About 1500 patients are dying everyday
• In Delhi 10 patients are dying everyday
• Almost 50% of Indians have TB germs inside them
• A single infected untreated person can spread the
disease to 10-15 individuals

14. HEPA Filters
A HEPA filter is a type of mechanical air filter; it
works by forcing air through a fine mesh that traps
harmful particles such as pollen, pet dander, dust
mites, and tobacco smoke
P.C.O. (Photo Catalytic Oxidation)
Advanced gas phase based Air Purification
system to break down aggressive chemical bonds
with all other advantages of UV System.
Passive Technologies
www.magneto.in
COMMON CHALLENGES…..
• UV lights are effective on surface inactivation with high energy guzzlers on moving air
• Filters itself can become a source of pollutants & breeding ground for pathogens
• PCO (Photo Catalytic Oxidation) Works well on Gases
• Portable units have limited area and coverage applications.
• Ventilation is energy expensive
How about reducing contamination at source??

These OH radicals steal hydrogen atoms (H) from proteins in the cell membrane on the surface of the microbes and
decompose the protein, thereby suppressing the activity of the airborne & surface contaminants.
