Case Study: University of Szeged reduces background pollution and eliminates MRSA with WellAir Novaerus Protect 800/900

University of Szeged reduces background pollution by 67% with WellAir

The University of Szeged faced a challenge with high levels of background air pollution and airborne MRSA in its Department of Geriatrics and Chronic Diseases, with measurements as high as 2610 cfu/m³ and 40 cfu/m³ respectively. Staff and patients also complained of persistent unpleasant odors. To address this, the university employed WellAir's Novaerus Protect 800 units powered by NanoStrike technology.

WellAir installed its units in three wards and a connecting corridor. Three days after installation, background pollution was reduced by an average of 67% and MRSA colonies were eliminated completely. The solution also successfully eradicated the unpleasant odors. The staff reported that the equipment operated quietly and following the trial, the department leadership expressed a strong desire to use the technology permanently to increase patient and staff safety.
