Abstract
An air treatment apparatus, system and method for removal of health threatening airborne pollutants from an airflow is provided. The air treatment apparatus includes a ducting section having an inactivation zone created by either a plasma-generating flexible electrode alone, a UV light source alone, or a combination of a plasma-generating flexible electrode and a UV light source disposed within the interior of the ducting section, wherein the airflow and airborne pollutants are urged into the inactivation zone ensuring multiple exposures of airborne pollutant material into the inactivation zone resulting in purified air exiting from the apparatus.
