Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –
The Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartanto is seen wearing a necklace air purifier in a meeting in Bintan, Riau Islands. Necklace air purifier is known to have several benefits to protect you from toxic particles in the air.
The necklace that Airlangga wore was personal air purifier or personal air purifier. Wein is one of the brands that releases personal air purifier products.
This tool is claimed to be able to filter out particles, including small particles such as viruses.
“This air purification system uses the unfiltered ionic air purification feature and excels in cleaning the air of particles that may have been missed by the air filter such as smoke, bacteria, viruses and odors,” writes Wine in its official website.
Sergey Grinshpun, a scientist from the Cincinnati Environmental Health Foundation who is behind the device, has proven in an aerosol study the effectiveness of ionic devices at lowering airborne virus concentrations.
This five-year study proved that ionic devices substantially reduce the concentration of toxic particles in the air before they are inhaled. Thus, this ionic air purifying feature can lower the risk of ill health including infection.
In his research, Ghrinspin found that masks equipped with ionizers have a very high level of protection against airborne pathogens, including the aerosol-causing corona virus, which causes Covid-19.
It was found that the electrostatic charge generated can increase the ability of the air filter to catch aerosolized viruses and bacteria before being inhaled by the nose.
In recent times, the use of air purifiers has indeed increased as public awareness of the importance of maintaining air quality. Quoting Healthline, Air purifiers basically work by cleaning the air of pollutant particles.
Depending on the type used, the particles can be removed through an air purifier. The best option is an air purifier that uses a negative ion emitter, which helps attract particles for later neutralization.
