NURVA CORPORATION Technologies Enable Rapid and Mobile Lifesaving
Decontamination Solution for Warfighter
NURVA CORPORATION today announced the latest next generation
prototype technology capable of high speed decontamination of
personnel and equipment from a range of chemical and biological
agents [DECOM-XR®].
This first phase system, a self contained, fully automated,
lightweight, mobile unit represents a major advancement in decontamination
technology and methods.
“There
was an inherent need to rethink the current standards and technologies
relating to the decontamination of personnel and equipment against
chemical and biological warfare agents. The core constraints
are exposure and time. Current decontamination systems have
never delivered a mobile, fully automated, rapid cycling solution
that exceeds the mandated requirements for the defense and civilian
sectors. Our objective from the start was singular in focus;
to revolutionize the process and method for decontamination”,
said Chadwick Fernandez, Director of Intelligence & Analytics,
NURVA Corporation.
The [DECOM-XR®]
rapid decontamination system utilizes high-power airflow (70mph+/-)
in conjunction with a proprietary misting liquid dispersal technology
to apply decontamination liquid agent over the personnel and
equipment, all while ultraviolet, light-emitting diodes (UV
LEDs) sanitize surfaces and filters out airborne contaminants.
This entire process is complete in a matter of minutes. Comparing
this to the current industry standard decontamination system,
whereby personnel would just be preparing for the lengthy shower
wash and scrub down methodology. "When dealing with
chemical and biological contaminant exposure, minutes can represent
a life and death scenario”, said Fernandez.
