Kronos Advanced Technologies Showcases Revolutionary, FDA cleared Air Purification Solutions at California Dental Association Convention

 

Los Angeles May 17th, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KRONOS ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (OTC MARKETS: KNOS) ("KNOS" or the "Company"), innovation-driven product development and production company that has significantly changed the way air is filtered and sterilized, announced today that the Company will be exhibiting its patented, FDA-approved air purifiers at the upcoming California Dental Association annual convention in Anaheim, CA, from May 17th to May 19th.  The California Dental Association (CDA) represents organized dentistry in the state of California. Founded in 1870, CDA is committed to the success of dentist members in service to their patients and the public. CDA also contributes to the oral health of Californians through various comprehensive programs and advocacy. CDA’s membership consists of more than 27,000 dentists, making it the largest constituent of the American Dental Association. There are over 180,000 dental offices in the United States.

 

               Recent research entitled “Exposure of Staff to Aerosols and Bioaerosols in a Dental Office” described Aerosol and infectious bioaerosol concentration measurements were performed in a dental office during routine procedures. Average mass concentrations of Airbourne particles during dental procedures were respectively 3.8 and 6.5 times higher than in the period when no procedures were conducted. They were also respectively 15.9 and 19.5 times higher than their average outdoor levels.

As research highlights the presence of infectious bio-aerosols and poor indoor air quality in dental offices, Kronos's advanced air purifiers offer a superior solution with their innovative technology. Unlike traditional systems requiring frequent HEPA filter replacements, Kronos air purifiers feature washable filters, ensuring sustainable, cost-effective air purification. This not only enhances the safety and cleanliness of dental environments but also promotes healthier workplaces without the ongoing cost of filter replacements. Join us to see firsthand how Kronos is setting new standards in air purification within the dental industry.

Doctors and Dentists will realize financial advantages of using Kronos air purifiers, such as cost savings from washable filters versus recurring purchases of HEPA filters.

 

               “Considering the market opportunity for air purifiers in dental offices across the USA, the potential is substantial. With around 180,000 dental offices in the USA, and most of these having multiple operatories which would each benefit from an individual air purifier, the demand could be significant.”- commented Greg Rubin, Kronos CEO.

The US air purifier market was valued at approximately $3.6 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 7.2% from 2023 to 2030. This growth is driven by increasing awareness of the health impacts of indoor air pollution, which includes the kind of bioaerosols commonly found in dental offices re Grand View Research.

The importance of air quality in dental offices is heightened by the presence of aerosols and bioaerosols generated during dental procedures, which can significantly compromise indoor air quality and pose health risks. This makes air purifiers an essential investment for such settings, where they can help in maintaining a safer and healthier environment for both patients and staff.

 

                Considering that most dental offices may require multiple units — one for each operatory — the potential market size for air purifiers in this sector is notably large. With dental offices aiming to improve air quality and ensure compliance with health standards, the interest in advanced air purification technologies is likely to increase.

Given the estimated growth rate of the market and the specific needs of dental offices for effective air purification, positioning air purifiers that can handle the unique challenges of dental environments could tap into a promising and lucrative segment of the air purifier market.

Kronos also manufactures USA Made, Biocompatible Graphene Face Mask Which Filters Over 99% of the smallest air pollutants, viruses, and bacteria.   Please visit https://kronosair.com/products/5-layer-graphene-mask

 

                Kronos Advanced Technologies is offering a wide variety of uniquely patented lines of smart air purifiers for indoor use that removes 99.98% of all pollutants, including smoke, bacteria, and viruses, but also do not require any filter replacements, making our air purifiers the lowest cost of ownership in the industry for comparable products. We also offer a personal air purifier for outdoor activity -FIT AIR.

Kronos products for safer indoor air quality include Model 3, Model 5, and Model 8 (also marketed as Airdog® products). The Company offers a unique air purifier, Tesla Air ™ , for car use.

Kronos Air 5G - Model 3 air purifier combines powerful eHEPA™ technology with a compact form factor up to 6 times smaller than other air purifiers, with reusable filters.

MODEL 8: Ideal for large spaces up to 3000 sq. ft. (businesses, hospitals, schools, universities, hotels, restaurants, including residential spaces such as studio apartments, large living rooms, and home offices.) The MODEL 8 is 30" (H) x 15" (W) x 15", weighs 43 pounds, and its power consumption is 110 W (110/240v).

About Kronos Advanced Technologies, Inc.

 

The Company was initially founded in 2002 and funded by the U.S. military to develop electrostatic air movers. Eventually, the Company moved into the consumer air purification business. It began operations as a product development company that invented and significantly changed the way air is moved, filtered, and sterilized. Historically, Kronos has focused on developing, marketing, and selling the Company's proprietary air movement and purification technology. Serving the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) market, Kronos technology uses state-of-the-art high-voltage patented processes without the use of traditional porous HEPA filters. Kronos-based products move air silently, filter, sterilize, and purify the air while dramatically reducing energy consumption to half of a 60-watt light bulb. The technology is currently being implemented in multiple standalone products for businesses, homes, and vehicles of all types -to move, sterilize and filter air, including removing allergens down to 14.6 nanometers, passing through our patented eHEPA® technology -replacing expensive outdated passive HEPA and other filtration type systems. Examples of immediately addressable markets include schools, universities, healthcare facilities, operating rooms, manufacturing clean rooms, and the cabins of automobiles and commercial aircraft.  Kronos published research about the effectiveness of Kronos Patented technology on air disinfection n (e.g., microorganism destruction) by demonstrating the high efficacy of Kronos® Technology-based air purifiers in capturing and destruction of various types of microorganisms (including Corona Viruses) in different environmental settings back in 2008. Results of this research showed that Electrostatic Air Filtration and Purification systems based on Kronos technology demonstrated high capturing and destruction efficiency for different types of microorganisms, bacteria, and viruses, and can be successfully used for disinfection of air in real word environmental settings, including hospital facilities both with and without the presence of people.

BusinessWeek called Kronos air purifiers "VIRUS KILLER" in 2005.
