System for decontamination of a vehicle interior

A vehicle equipped with a decontamination system comprising:

• a vehicle comprising a cabin, said cabin defining an interior and an exterior;
• an enclosure having sidewalls, said sidewalls defining a cavity;
• an inlet fluidly coupled to said cavity, said inlet configured to receive air into said cavity from at least one of said interior of said cabin and said exterior of said cabin;
• an outlet fluidly coupled to said cavity, said outlet configured to discharge said air from said cavity into said cabin;
• a bed scrubber located within said cavity fluidly coupled to said inlet and said outlet;
• said bed scrubber comprising a substrate with decontamination material attached to said substrate;
• and
• a blower fluidly coupled to said inlet and said outlet, said blower configured to transfer said air from said inlet through said bed scrubber and out said outlet;
• and
• a power source electrically coupled to said substrate configured to electrically heat said substrate to a predetermined temperature configured to deactivate a pathogen.

A process for decontamination of a space comprising:

• fluidly coupling a decontamination system to said space, said decontamination system comprising:
• an enclosure having sidewalls, said sidewalls defining a cavity;
• an inlet fluidly coupled to said cavity, said inlet configured to receive air into
• an outlet fluidly coupled to said cavity, said outlet configured to discharge said air from said cavity into said space;
• a bed scrubber located within said cavity fluidly coupled to said inlet and said outlet;
• said bed scrubber comprising a substrate with decontamination material attached to said substrate, a power source electrically coupled to said substrate configured to electrically heat said substrate to a predetermined temperature configured to deactivate a pathogen;
• and
• a blower fluidly coupled to said inlet and said outlet, said blower configured to transfer said air from said inlet through said bed scrubber and out said outlet into said space;
• activating said blower;
• directing said air through said bed scrubber;
• contacting said air to said decontamination material;
• deactivating a pathogen contained in said air;
• and discharging said air from said outlet into said space.
