History of PCO

Photo Catalytic Oxidation (PCO) was an advanced technology developed for the U.S. Military. It was first used in 1991 Gulf War for protection against BIOLOGICAL & CHEMICAL WARFARE.

PCO Developed by Sandia Laboratory with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and used by the Department of Defense for destroying toxic organic compounds that are hazardous to human health and the environment. This powerful air sterilization technology is a quantum leap in air purification, and is now available for in home patient use.

The key is the reactor surface, the more TiO2 the better. The Original PCO developed by Sandia Laboratory Patented Coating Technology results in solid deposition of titanium dioxide onto reactor surface.

Unlike other manufactures which uses suspension liquids for coating, Airsopure PCO Reactor consists of close to 100% of TiO2 compared to 5-10% in other manufactures.

In 1997, the US company Airsopure® commercialized the technology for the use of improving indoor air quality. The world's first Photo-Catalytic Oxidation Air Sterilizers (S950) launched in 1997.
