VIKAND has developed a solution to combat mold infestations on ships, which pose a significant health risk, according to Safety4sea.
Combating Mold
Mold growth on ships, particularly black mold, poses significant health risks to crew and passengers. It can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, and other health complications.
Mold thrives in the damp and humid environments common on ships, often growing in hidden areas like air ducts, plumbing systems, and behind walls. This makes early detection and remediation challenging.
The presence of mold can also compromise the operational safety of the vessel.
To combat this issue, advanced air purification technology can be employed. This technology utilizes hydroxyls, natural molecules that effectively neutralize mold spores, bacteria, viruses, and other airborne contaminants. By continuously purifying both air and surfaces, this technology offers a long-term solution for preventing mold growth and maintaining a healthy and safe environment onboard.
