摘要:
To provide an apparatus for capture and inactivation of microbes and viruses, the apparatus is configured to be capable of performing stable removal of microbes and viruses and achieve a reduction in pressure loss.An apparatus 100 includes an air path housing 10, a charging-unit high-voltage electrode 2 that charges airborne microorganisms introduced in the air path housing 10, a charging-unit ground electrode 3 placed so as to face the charging-unit high-voltage electrode 2, a hydrophilic filter 6 that captures the airborne microorganisms charged by the charging-unit high-voltage electrode 2, a capturing/inactivating-unit high-voltage electrode 5 that subjects the hydrophilic filter to electrostatic induction and inactivates the captured viruses, and a capturing/inactivating-unit ground electrode 7 placed so as to face the capturing/inactivating-unit high-voltage electrode 5.
