Air ionizers are used in air purifiers. Airborne particles are attracted to the electrode in an effect similar to static electricity.
These ions are de-ionized by seeking earthed conductors, such as walls and ceilings. To increase the efficiency of this process, some commercial products provide such surfaces within the device.
The frequency of nosocomial infections in British hospitals prompted the National Health Service (NHS) to research the effectiveness of anions for air purification.
Recent SARS outbreaks have fueled the desire for personal ionizers in the Far East, including Japan (where many products have been specialized to contain negative ion generators, including toothbrushes, refrigerators, air conditioners, air cleaners and washing machines).
There are no specific standards for these devices. Notebook producers ASUS have now started to include air ionizers in their computers.
