Abstract
A system and method delivers an atomized solution to the interior volume of a building or room utilizing a venturi effect for the atomization.
Claims14
A system for dispersing a solution comprising:
- a solution chamber having an inlet, an outlet, and a solution contained therein;
- a venturi configuration operatively associated with said solution chamber;
- an air inlet associated with a pressurized air inlet source configured for imparting venturi effect on the solution in the solution chamber;
- at least one actuator associated with a said pressurized air inlet source;
- and at least one sensor operatively associated with said at least one actuator, whereby, upon actuation, pressurized air from said pressurized air atomizes the solution and forces the atomized solution though the outlet.

A method for delivering atomized solution, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing a system for dispersing a solution comprising:
- a solution chamber having an inlet, an outlet, and a solution contained therein;
- a venturi configuration operatively associated with said solution chamber;
- an air inlet associated with a pressurized air inlet source configured for imparting venturi effect on the solution in the solution chamber;
- at least one actuator associated with a said pressurized air inlet source;
- and at least one sensor operatively associated with said at least one actuator, whereby, upon actuation, pressurized air from said pressurized air atomizes the solution and forces the atomized solution though the outlet;
- placing a solution in the solution chamber;
- measuring bacterial growth, either before or after delivery of the solution, and calculating a time period of delivery based on said desired final concentration results in a bacterial growth measurement below about 100 fungal counts CT/cm2;
- activating the actuator, whereby said activating atomizes the solution and said solution exits the solution chamber through the outlet.
