Abstract: Air purification devices include an air inlet and outlet, upstream and downstream sections in air flow communication with the air inlet and outlet and a filter removably positioned between the upstream and downstream sections to filter at least pathogens from air being passed through the filter. One or more ultraviolet (UV) illuminating sources may be positioned in at least the upstream section proximate the filter to illuminate at least an upstream surface of the filter with sufficient UV radiation to kill viable pathogens that accumulate on the filter. One or more ozone generating sources may be positioned to generate ozone in sufficient concentrations to kill viable pathogens proximate the device. The UV illuminating sources and ozone generating sources may be positioned to provide a predetermined pressure drop across the sources and air flow pattern proximate the filter, and enable the filter to be removed without handling the sources.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, an integrated air processing device comprises a housing defining an air inlet, an air outlet, and a pathway from the inlet to the outlet. An air decontamination section, an air conditioning section, and a heating section are provided along the pathway. A blower is also provided along the pathway, to drive air from the inlet to the outlet, along the pathway. In another example, an integrated air processing device comprises a housing as above, and an air conditioning section and a heating section along the pathway. An air decontamination section and/or a blower may also be provided along the pathway. In accordance with another embodiment, a portable isolation containment system comprises one or more portable containment enclosures coupled to the integrated air processing devices described above. Methods are disclosed, as well.
