Description
The ability to efficiently and effectively sterilize non-line-of-sight locations within an aircraft has traditionally been a significant challenge for the DOD. Clean O3 solves these challenges with C.S.U (Compartment Sanitizing Unit), the next evolution of sterilization that provides personnel a self-contained, self-powered solution utilizing advanced ozone and atomization technology. Designed through independent testing, C.S.U assesses performance against sterilization benchmarks to identify systems level strengths and weaknesses in the elimination of the toughest pathogens. Directly aligned with Focus Area 14940, Clean O3 provides a solution that can sterilize non-line-of-sight locations within an aircraft with minimal support personnel or expertise. Sterilization can be achieved in an hour without the need for personnel to move equipment, seatbelts, or open compartments. This proprietary system, currently in development, will be self-sufficient by monitoring ozone and atomization in real time utilizing an internal monitoring sensor while the unit is in use.
