Galvamet: What is Plasma?

Plasma is an ionized gas consisting of an electrically neutral blend of electrons and ions.

How is Plasma produced?

It is produced by giving the molecules of a gas, at a given pressure, sufficient thermal energy to dissociate the molecules and ionize the atoms and molecules of the gas itself.

How is Plasma filter working in a cooker hood?

At first, the grease present in the cooking fumes is captured by the anti-grease filters, the filtered air then enters the Plasma filter and is oxidized by “cold combustion”. Molecules, like germs and odors, are decomposed at the molecular stage. Unburned compounds are captured from the activated charcoal downstream. At the same time, activated charcoal acts as a catalyst and terminates the oxidation process. At the output of activated charcoal, there are no reactive components, but only: Oxygen (O2), Carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O) = PURE AIR. The Plasma filter only uses a few watts of electricity and does not require maintenance, in fact the activated charcoal is regenerated by the Plasma at each use.
