the Development of the actual thermoresistor Michael started long ago, but the idea is to equip the device with germicidal function came to him in November last year, when it became known about the events in the Chinese Wuhan.
– by education I am a molecular biologist, at the Department of medical chemistry, Nizhny Novgorod state University of Lobachevsky (UNN) studied the photocatalysis – change in the rate of a chemical reaction under the influence of substances-catalysts that are activated by irradiation with waves mainly in the visible spectrum, says Michael. And I thought it will be great if provide a heating unit of a respirator photocatalyst component, which neutralizes bacteria and viruses inhaled from the air.
Michael a Respirator and without innovation: a mask with heating and maintaining a constant temperature no one has ever offered to the consumer, not to mention equipping it with antibacterial filter, ionizing the air. To develop a respirator Michael helped a good knowledge of the physiology of man: if he inhales the cold air, the body includes the production of additional heat, which leads to higher costs of energy. Hence, rapid fatigue, respiratory diseases. How warm you were wearing. So, thought Michael, it is necessary to warm the air you breathe. Then will it be possible as much as necessary to be on the street at any frost.
the Scientist did the calculations and created the draft thermoresistor powered by a mini battery and allows you to maintain a constant temperature of the inhaled air plus of 25 degrees Celsius. Such a device may be useful for rescuers, mountaineers, military.
Way
Start developing the project of the young scientist managed through Project office of the University on the model of the ASI (Agency for strategic initiatives). They find sources of funding, help and support, assistance in certification. Serial production is planned for early autumn.
