Concept and Theory
In Aug of 2019, My initial concept is to produce a device that can help us get rid of second-hand smoke and other pollutants in the air. However, the outbreak of covid-19 in Wuhan China shake the world and change my mind: I have to strengthen my device. Therefore, the concept of a reusable Mask which can purify the air is shaped in my mind. I named it Capabo Ultrasonic Photocatalysts Pyramid Mask now (Patent and design registered). (In the video, it called Capabo Ultrasonic Photocatalysts Personal Purifier)
The theory of the Capabo Ultrasonic Photocatalysts Pyramid Mask is creating a quarantine zone by using ultrasonic and create a sterilising zone by using photocatalyst before these pollutants approach the filter. Let me give you an example then all will understand even for a kid. Here is a soccer pitch. There is only a world class goalkeeper at a gantry without any defender in front of him which is just like what an ordinary mask did. The goalkeeper is very efficiency and good skills BUT there are are 10 world class scorers (bacteria and virus) in front of him. So you can think about the final score.
In our soccer pitch, we are not only have a world class goalkeeper but also many defenders in the goal area (my invention use ultraviolet 350-380nm and TiO2 coating to form a photocatalyst system to kill the bacteria and virus). Moreover, we have many other world class defenders and guardians in the penalty area (we use ultrasonic to coagulate the pollutants into larger size particles and break the wall of cells). There are no any other mask like this one.
According to the discovery of scientist from Germany and Switzerland in March 2020, the cell of covid-19 could be killed by alcohol (Ethanol) concentrations as low as 30%! The researchers Ms Pfaender has conducted similar experiments with Mers and Sars strains before and found they could withstand ethanol concentrations of more than 35%. This indicates the new coronavirus appears more vulnerable to alcohol than two other deadly coronaviruses. Nowadays, we all know how alcohol kills the germs - by breaking down its cell membrane. That's the same ultrasonic can do but the effective time is different. Alcohol takes from 20 to 30 seconds while ultrasonic could as fast as less than one second!
How ultrasonic can affect the pollutant as well as bacteria and virus?
Let's go into more technical details. Normal human ears can hear sound between 20-20KHz depending on age. The hearing ability of a dog is usually around 67-45KHz. This new invention generate sonic waves from 1000KHz to 2000KHz maximum so your pets would not hear it. In photo no 2 indicate that ultrasonic can produce cavitation in a fluid to breakdown the cell membrane within a second. This is called cell lysis which could cause the cell disruption occur! Cell lysis by ultrasonic may seem like magic, but it is true and is applied in many industries like food industry & cosmetic industry. The ultrasonic transducer generates sound energy electronically. This energy will be converted to mechanical energy. Ultrasonication produces cavitation phenomena to allow the multiple production of microbubbles at nucleation sites in the fluid. The bubbles grow during the rarefying phase of the sound wave, then are collapsed during the compression phase. On collapse, a violent shock wave passes through the medium. The whole process of gas bubble nucleation, growth and collapse due to the action of intense sound waves is called cavitation which ultimately causes cell rupture and successful cell lysis within a second. One more thing, the process of cavitation generates heat which might kill the virus. The bioaerosol is a fluid in terms of tiny size (10-100 nanometer) suspend in the air, so if the ultrasonic power is strong enough, the cell inside the bioaerosol will be disrupted.
Structure of Covid-19
Let's take a look at the structure of covid-19 in the diagram. It consists of a cell membrane called lipid membrane or enveloped capsid. There are two different consequences when the cell lysis in different situations: (1) if it is in the air, the cell of covid-19 is to be disrupted then it will die quickly when it is exposed to sunlight and heat. (2) if the cell of covid-19 reach our cell in respiratory system, the covid-19 will break the membrane by itself in order to release the Viral RNA in the core to hijack our cells. So we have to kill it before it can reach us, by using of ultrasonic, not only the cell lysis occur and but also it will generate heat up to an impressive temperature that could kill the cell.
How does ultrasonic clean the second-hand smoke and dust in the air?
Since 1967 symposium in Poland, scientists are working on reducing air pollution. Some scholars are noting in their reports promising ultrasonic method of air purification. The pollutant in air are varies from PM2.5, dust, smoke, fumes, formaldehyde, mists, metal oxides, pollen and soot...etc. Second-hand smoke and these pollutants are randomly fly in the air, under the influence of ultrasonic vibrations more and more collide with each other. As a result, they coalesce and increase in size. The process of enlargement of particles called Coagulation. Enlarged particles settle faster, easier captured by the HEPA filters inside the Capabo Pyramid Mask and, therefore, better to clean the air.
Firstly, My Capabo Pyramid Mask make use of 4 ultrasonic transducers on the front of the Mask to generate sonic waves from 1000KHz to 2000KHz maximum. This will coalesce the second-hand smoke and dust and make them increase in size effectively. Also these ultrasonic might change the route of these tiny particles to prevent them towards us. If there is germs, these ultrasonic will make the cell lysis before entering our respiratory system.
Secondly, some pollutants and the germs will enter the trapezoid of the mask which i call it Filter Pyramid. The photocatalyst system is waiting for them! It consists of 5 plates on the 1st column and 2 ladder shape metal plates on second and third columns. (The video is showing the first version, but now I have changed it to the second version which is better on catching the tiny particles) there are many tiny holes on the ladder shape metal plates of second and third column. This make the tiny particles cannot reach the HEPA filter in a straight route which result in being capture on the surface of the plates. All the surfaces in the Filter Pyramid are being coated by TiO2 coating which would occur photocatalyst when the UV-A ultraviolet located on the roof of The Filter Pyramid shine on it. Additionally, there is a UV-C ultraviolet at the floor of the Filter Pyramid. UV-C ultraviolet is different from UV-A , it can kill the germs directly but it is harmful to eyes if it shoots straight into our eyes. However, it does not harm you in this mask as it cannot pass through the HEPA filter and the activated carbon layer. Therefore when the disrupted cell enter The Filter Pyramid. The disrupted cell will die instantly under the presence of ultraviolet and photocatalyst! Furthermore, the photocatalytic effect can decompose the dead body of the cell! Feel Amazing? Actually the photocatalytic effect is one of the nature principle.
8 Major Features and Benefits of CAPABO Ultrasonic Photocatalysts Pyramid Mask
1. Coagulation: make use of 4 ways of Ultrasonic Transducer at 2000KHz maximum to coalesce the pollutants in the air and increase their size.
Benefit: Pollutants are much easier to be blocked by the HEPA filter inside the Filter Pyramid. Therefore, Result in better quality of air.
2. Cell lysis and disruption: Ultrasonic can break the cell membrane/ enveloped capsid of the cell within a second which could shorten the life of the cell or even died in the sunlight.
Benefit: The cells are disrupted or even died before they can reach us. Greatly reduce the risk of infection!
3. Filter Pyramid: make use of Dual Ultraviolet (UV-A & UV-C) and Photocatalyst, the cell will died instantly. Their dead bodies will either lay on the TiO2 coating or the HEPA filter. Those lay on the TiO2 coating will be decomposed.
Benefit: The air is being sterilized. Greatly reduce the risk of infection!
4. Replace a HEPA filter once a month: as the room of the Filter Pyramid keep sterilize always, as a result, the filter could last for much longer time. Replace it once a month is appropriate. As those filter material such as melt-blown layer are getting shortage and regarding as strategic material, Capabo Pyramid Mask can safe 88% usage of filter materials!
Benefit: Reduce pollution. Save the environmental. You don't need to worry about where to source ordinary disposable mask anymore.
5. Dual Photocatalysts and Sunroof : Not only there are photocatalytic effect inside the Filter Pyramid, the insider of the main mask body also can have photocatalytic effect which could purify the area between the mask and our face, as our exhale moisture air also need to be purify. The Sunroof (near the nose) bring the sunlight into this area to make the photocatalyst works.
Benefit: Reduce the risk of bacteria growth inside the mask after a long run.
6. Rechargeable battery: The battery could be recharged. Fully charged could used for upto 10 hours at full mode (Both Ultrasonic and Ultraviolet are switched on).
Benefit: I can't say it is a great benefit for rechargeable battery. As a environmental protector, I prefer to use electricity as few as possible. However this technology have to use battery. I'm sure it is more durable and more effective than all disposable masks.
7. Plug and play: This point is the most convenient part I think. If you had use an ordinary mask before, you know how inconvenient when you want to drinking or eating. When you put it down, where you place the used mask is an annoying problem. This CAPABO Pyramid Mask can be simply plug out the Filter Pyramid by a button. So your nose and mouth are now exposed, this is best for drinking and have some light meal. Of course if i am having a dinner, i prefer to take off the whole mask.
One more thing, the Filter Pyramid can be put on every horizontal surface and keep the HEPA filter being untouched. Furthermore, It comes with a cover to seal the whole HEPA filter to keep it away from any contamination!
8. Paint your idea, show your character: Officially 3 design for options: Space Grey/ Leopard/ England.
The most unique point is you can paint your own mask! You can paint whatever you like on the Filter Pyramid to show your own style by yourself. Show your character!
Another characteristic of this product is all of the major parts NOT made in China. Some of them are come from Germany and Taiwan. So you will feel safe and comfort to use it.
We suppose to anounce it later this year. However the viruses don't wait for us.
In February, we started the video production when the mortality is at 638 only all of them happened in China but today it's almost 100,000 in the world! 156 times! In my schedule I need to find investors to invest and start prepare the prototype and production. Then I'll have to wait for the patent registry to officially approve in different countries. It will take a year or more.
Money or Life, which one first? It is crystal clear: Save lives first. So I don't care about the patent issue now, I suppose not to expose the invention before it is the patent approval.
To speed up the plan, we need all of you to support us. We need your funding and sharing to speed up the whole development process. After the completion of this fundraising, another 30 days to completed the prototype and ready for production. It is Easter now, hope that Jesus Christ saves us from this human disaster! Time is running out, please support us now!
If the fundraising successfully, we will update our processing weekly through
