Electrostatic
Particulate Ionization (EPI)
Licensed by USDA-ARS exclusively to BEI
for agricultural applications in the U.S., Canada and Europe
This technology is being adapted from the
poultry
industry
with promising results!
From ASAE Paper #034055
Electrostatic Space Charge System for Air Quality
Improvement in Broiler Production Houses
• Airborne dust reduced by 60%
• Ammonia reduced by 56%
• Total bacteria reduced by 76%
Safety: EPI technology has been shown to reduce harmful air
pollutants such as dust, ammonia
and pathogens in poultry areas resulting in healthier birds and providing a healthier environment
From Applied Engineering in Agriculture:
Volume 20 (1); pages 87-93
Application of An Electrostatic Space Charge System for
Dust, Ammonia
and Pathogen Reduction
in Broiler Breeder House
• Airborne dust reduced by 61%
• Ammonia reduced by 56%
• Total bacteria reduced by 67%
Safe: ... “simple, environmentally friendly process that is harmless to
birds and humans...”, page 88
•Negative ionization of particles in the air attracts them to a grounded surface
•High voltage, but very low amperage, uses very little electricity
•Safe: very low amperage draw may shock like an electric fence, but
will
not hurt people or animals

USDA testing indicates up to 60 - 80% reduction of
dust, ammonia and pathogens! |
·
Particulate control = effective odor control
· Treat air exhausted vertically instead of
horizontally
· Free-standing - no impact on building
· Improves site aesthetics
· Limited static pressure build-up on fan
· No need to boost fan horsepower

overall performance
· Rodent resistant design
· All steel (Allied Gatorshield™) frame
· Engineered for 130 mph winds and snow load of 20
lbs/ft2 when
installed according to engineering
specifications
· Low maintenance:
-External - self cleaning
-Internal - clean as needed
· Full installation or do-it-yourself kits available
· Single or multiple fan units available
