This device is a sealed chamber designed to clean multiple items. It works by first pumping an antimicrobial fluid, such as ozone or a halogen gas, into the chamber and then pumping it out. Simultaneously, it uses both microwave and ultraviolet radiation to sanitize the articles inside.
Why it matters: The patent anticipated a single microwave source generating UV radiation; advancements in compact, multi-functional energy sources and plasma generation for sanitization have occurred since 2002.
