Or should it hot air as under power mast (corona discharge).
As air in the aircraft cabin (Ozonhaltig).
Air as arc welding (ozone).
Pollutants are dissolved ??? How long, for example, formaldehyde is oxidized to ozone to secure connections? To my knowledge, is then acetaldehyde from formaldehyde. It may also in my opinion - depending on which molecules are present just in the air - cause chain reactions and other free radicals.
One thing is in my opinion in any case that this device is a corona discharge (as at power lines) generated. This inevitably creates ozone O3. The higher the operating voltage the higher the ozone emissions. Pulmonary Physicians in the network warn of air purification with ozone generating cleaners. This dangerous substances can still arise.
The manufacturer indicates that the ozone content is 0,02ppm. That is 40Mikrogramm / m3. Since here but quite a lot of people take this like chlorine, chemical rankness true, the question is whether the information is correct.
An ionization would only make sense if after a complicated purification process would take place. This does not happen with this unit. It is a pure ionizer. In addition, this device is to clean air 100m2. Reputable suppliers of professional cleaning products provide strangely not even half of the 20 times the purchase price.
The "fairytale" with the negative ions believes nowadays hopefully nobody. The argument that the US military uses them, actually only shows that apparently never learns something there. Was it not the American military, which had given his soldiers LSD?
In addition, upon ionization cluster formation by dust inside the room air takes place. That makes no sense! After clustering (Staubverklumpung) of dust to be trapped in a filter and do not settle on the walls or fall to the ground, are "entclustert" and are whirled again. Since this unit does not have a dust filter may be contaminated hereby walls and ceiling.
Then there's the salt oases, which are very proud that they have had to take on his arm. By clustering the Salt particles are bound in the air and fall to the ground. What you breathe in there - the fresh smell - may be ozone. This is a dangerous, highly reactive irritant gas. The salt particles are, however, on the floor. That makes no sense !!!
I would not enter Salzosase with ionizer technology.
Ozone should not be compared with forest but aircraft cabin.
Yes, in the forest, the concentration of ozone is higher. This is because the pollution is less. Logically! Ozone breaks down (oxidizes) very quickly to pollutants. If you were the wood then also free from ozone, the air would be even better. The argument that the air in the forest and the waterfall was better due to the ozone content, fails completely. It is better because other pollutants missing there.
Maybe Who do not believe me, believe the Wikipedia. I quote:
"Devices for the ionization of the indoor air is available as small appliances less power. The beyond the dust-binding effect effects of small appliances for household use (increase of well-being, more fresh air) that are based on the generation of anions which are not scientifically proven and are controversial discussed.
The water formed in an air ionization ozone causes a splitting of many odor-causing molecules.
However involve the breakdown products of nicotine and cigarette smoke, in addition to the ozone itself, high health risks, so that, for example, the German Lung Foundation warns, to eliminate the bad smell smoky rooms with ozone-generating air purifiers. "
