BioZone Scientific designs and manufactures ultraviolet light commercial and industrial applications, creating chemical-free systems for virus disinfection and sanitation, preventative maintenance, and odor control solutions.
Ultraviolet (UV) light has been used safely for over a century to disinfect drinking water and sterilize air and surfaces. It is invisible to the human eye and is categorized by wavelength into UV-A (blacklights), UV-B (sunburns), and UV-C (germicidal).
UV-C radiation is the main type used in UV disinfection technology, and it has been shown to disinfect surfaces, air, and objects and kill bacteria and viruses in seconds. UV-C can be used in numerous disinfection applications from public transport and restaurants to hospitals, schools, and offices. Agencies such as the US EPA, US FDA, US Government, ASHRAE, CIBSE (UK) and ISHRAE (India) all approve UV technologies for disinfection and sanitation applications. UV-C light is powerful enough to penetrate the cell walls of microorganisms and shatter the DNA, making it impossible for them to grow and reproduce. Because of this power, BioZone ensures that all our disinfection products are equipped with safe-guards to prevent human exposure while maintaining powerful germ-fighting capabilities.
Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) based technologies have advanced considerably over the years. BioZone’s patented high-output UV technology requires low energy consumption and maximizes the useful life of the UV lamps.
BioZone Scientific’s ultraviolet lamps may employ one or more specific wavelengths of light as required by the application and intended use.
Benefits of UV Technology
HVAC systems with UV disinfection are proven to have the following benefits:
Photoplasma effectively reduces bacteria, viruses, mold, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and unpleasant odors.
When specific wavelengths of UV light react with the air, it creates purifying plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter, energized beyond solid, liquid, or gas. 99% of the matter found in the universe is in a plasma state.
Photoplasma can be found naturally and is often referred to as the ‘detergent’ of the Earth’s atmosphere due to its ability to break down many harmful pollutants.
Plasma has the power to destroy bacteria, fungi, viruses, yeast, mold, algae, odors, and other harmful micro-organisms.
BioZone’s patented technologies are recognized as among the most efficient and cost-effective methods known for producing photoplasma.
BioZone’s plasma-producing devices are more effective than germicidal UV air purifiers or ozone generators alone.
As true plasma-producing devices, BioZone solutions are proven to give the following benefits:
Energy-efficient | Quick | Effective | Cost-effective
Ozone is a powerful oxidant found naturally in the environment. Like photoplasma, it is created by the reaction of oxygen and specific wavelengths of UV light.
Widely recognized for its abilities to destroy germs, bacteria, viruses, odors, and micro-contaminants, ozone breaks down unwanted organic compounds including harsh chemicals.
Ozone can become an irritant in high concentrations. BioZone’s products and methodologies are compliant with national and international ozone concentration guidelines.
For more than a century, ozone has been used to safely disinfect drinking water, and is approved for multiple foodservice applications by the US FDA.
Ozone reduces the presence of germs, viruses, and mold. It destroys VOC’s which cause unpleasant odors.

Photocatalytic oxidation processes destroy VOC’s catalytically on certain surface materials.
Benefits of Photocatalytic Oxidation
Quick | Effective | Natural
Photocatalytic oxidation, or PCO, is an advanced oxidation process that combines the power of UV light and a highly reactive metallic catalyst to accelerate photoreactions.
In the PCO process, the UV light’s energy reacts with the catalyst to create an energy gap that is used to generate free radicals, including hydroxyl radicals.
The radical species are highly reactive with organic compounds, and quickly and efficiently oxidize odors, bacteria, viruses, and harmful or unwanted chemicals.
Positive and negative ions occur naturally in the air and are one of nature’s most efficient means of decreasing airborne contamination such as bacteria, viruses, and VOCs, and neutralizing odorous gases and aerosols.
Ions are electrically charged particles that have either gained or lost electrons.
Negatively charged ions have an excess of electrons which gives them a net negative electric charge.
BioZone’s solutions may employ a negative ion generator to systematically attract multiple compounds in the air and bind them together to increase the yield of destruction of odor molecules, bacteria, viruses, and chemicals that are targeted by BioZone’s other technologies.
Negative ions lower the concentration of harmful chemicals in the air by balancing the number of positive ions.

Introducing The OGR Solution from BioZone Scientific
The OGR solution is an automated, chemical-free treatment system that reduces the accumulation of grease, oil, and unwanted food odours from commercial and industrial kitchens.
The OGR solution combines the power of ultraviolet oxidation and UV photolysis to prevent the accumulation of oil and grease particles while eliminating food odours in kitchen exhaust systems.
Large particles of grease and oil rising from the grill can be effectively captured and stopped by the baffles in the kitchen hood. Small particles, however, are borne upward by the flow of the exhaust air stream, past the baffles.
The OGR solution oxidizes grease and oil particles which are too small to be captured effectively by baffles, turning dangerous, flammable material into small amounts of low-combustion ash, easily wiped off at the end of the day.
The OGR system immediately reduces airborne pollutants, grease, kitchen oils, and other chemicals by up to 95%, reducing the burden on ventilation systems and lowering the risk of dangerous kitchen fires.
