PureLayer+ is designed to minimize the risk of introducing or spreading disease on a farm, effectively enhancing overall animal welfare. By applying it uniformly on any surface within the farm, it ensures the protection of all materials, reducing the presence of microorganisms. Additionally, it destroys particles that come into contact with treated surfaces, acting as a powerful gas neutralizer. This improves the quality of life for both animals and staff by preventing irritation of the upper respiratory tract and reducing the risk of pathogens entering the body.
Introducing photocatalytic coatings for solar-panel maintenance engineers A treatment based on mineral semiconductors How our coating works. Imagine your solar panels are like windows that need to stay clear so they can let sunlight in. Our TiO₂ coating acts like a built-in cleaning system that kicks into action when sunlight hits it. Here's how it works: - Sunlight Activation: When the panel is exposed to sunlight, the TiO₂ absorbs some of that energy. This energy “activates” the TiO₂ molecules. - Creation of Tiny Cleaners: Once activated, the TiO₂ generates very tiny, reactive particles— think of them like mini cleaning agents. Although these particles are so tiny and short-lived that you can’t see or measure them directly, they are powerful enough to break down any dirt or organic grime stuck on the panel's surface. - Breaking Down the Dirt: These reactive particles work by attacking the bonds in the dirt, breaking it up into simpler substances such as water and carbon dioxide. This means that even stubborn dirt or bacteria are gradually degraded into harmless, easy-to-remove components. - Enhanced Wash-Off: In addition, the TiO₂ coating makes the panel’s surface extremely water-friendly. This hydrophilic effect causes water (like rain) to spread evenly over the panel, washing away the broken-down dirt much more effectively. As a result, your solar panels stay cleaner, absorb sunlight more efficiently, and require less manual cleaning and maintenance over time. Why use our coatings? - Self-Cleaning Properties: TiO₂ coatings are known for their super-hydrophilic and photocatalytic properties. These allow the coating to break down organic dirt and make water spread evenly across the surface, effectively cleaning the panels when it rains. It eliminates the "glue-like" effect caused by organic dirt adhering to the panel, simplifying the cleaning process significantly. - Manual cleaning is expensive and can increase risk of damage. - Protection against solar magnification: These coatings reduce risk of lens effect which can potentially burn or damage solar panels. - Durability and UV Resistance: TiO₂ coatings enhance the durability of PV panels by protecting them from UV radiation and environmental wear, extending their lifespan. - Anti-Soiling and Dust Resistance: By preventing the accumulation of dust and debris, TiO₂ coatings maintain the transparency of the panels, ensuring consistent performance. Will our coating work on other surfaces? Yes, we can apply different variants of these Tio2 coatings to almost any surface. Apart from the self–cleaning function, what pollutants can we eradicate from the air using our photocatalytic coatings? Some of these gasses cause global warming and urgently need to be removed.

Nualgi was invented by Mr. Sampath Kumar Thothathri of Bangalore, India over 10 years of research from 1994 to 2004 and is in commercial use since 2005. Nualgi is patented in India, USA, UK and Germany. US Patent 7585898, 2007 'Composition for growth of Diatom Algae'. Nualgi contains 10 micro-nutrients, adsorbed on Nano Silica. The micro-nutrients are Iron, Boron, Calcium, Cobalt, Copper, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Sulfur, Zinc. It is a liquid in small plastic bottles, 500 ml and 1 liter. Normal dose is 1 liter in 10 million liters of eutrophic water. When Nualgi is poured into any nutrient rich water, such as aquaculture ponds, Tanks in Wastewater Treatment Plants, eutrophic lakes, oceans, etc., the native Diatoms in the water consume it and grow rapidly. Diatoms consume Nualgi and other algae do not consume it, since Diatoms require Silica, thus the micro-nutrients in Nualgi are delivered to Diatoms in large natural waterways that contain many types of phytoplankton such as Cyanobacteria / Blue Green Algae, Green Algae, Dinoflagellates, Coccolithophores, etc. Nualgi does NOT contain any Diatoms. 1 Litre of Nualgi contains ~ 20 grams of Nano Silica, ~ 4 grams of 10 micro-nutrients put together, ~ 3 grams each of P and K. It does not contain any Nitrogen or Carbon or Diatom Algae or Diatom Spores. 1 Litre of Nualgi is to be dosed into 10 million liters of eutrophic water or 2 million liters of raw sewage. 1 Litre of Nualgi enables growth of upto 1,000 kgs of Diatoms. 1,000 kgs of Diatoms consume 1,670 kgs of CO2, 80 kgs of N and 11 kgs of P and produce 1,215 kgs of Oxygen. 1,000 kgs of Diatoms consumed by Zooplankton and Fish grow 100 to 250 kgs of Fish, Shrimp, Oysters, Krill, Whales, etc. Nualgi is a consumable and needs to be used regularly, proportionate to the nutrients, N and P, input into water. Nualgi is packed in plastic bottles of 500 ml and 1 litre and these in cardboard cartons of 10 litres and 12 litres. There are no special requirements for storage, transport or handling. It is shipped by Road, Air and Sea. Nualgi is classified as a fertilizer and is a 'product known to be safe'. Nualgi is also used as a Foliar Spray on all crops in agriculture, since the micro-nutrient requirement of plants and Diatoms is similar and plants too benefit from silica.

The Q-Layer System is based on natural semiconductors that are activated by light. When exposed to light, these coatings continuously generate peroxides and other radicals, creating a protective shield against viruses and other organic substances on treated surfaces. What sets the Q-Layer System apart is its prolonged effect, driven by its exceptional adhesion properties. PureLayer+, activated by light, is capable of continuously breaking down all types of organic matter deposited on treated surfaces. Furthermore, its formulation consists of a carefully studied combination of water-based minerals, making this system completely natural and non-toxic. It is important to combine the QLayer System with a proper & complete biosecurity plan. The Qlayer System forms a protective shield that prevents harmful microorganisms from coming into contact with animals. Inside the Farm: Using surfaces treated with the Qlayer System in areas such as sheds, feeders, and waterers creates a more hygienic environment. By reducing pathogens in these critical areas, the spread of avian influenza among birds can be significantly minimized. Additionally, this reduces the need for chemical disinfectants, benefitting both animal and human health. Outside the Farm: Applying the Qlayer System outdoors on roads or in peripheral facilities creates a physical barrier against microorganisms, preventing them from coming into contact with animals. This approach not only enhances animal welfare but also reduces the risk of exposure to pathogens carried by wild birds. The Qlayer System provides an innovative and eco-friendly solution to improve biosecurity on farms. By implementing the Qlayer System, a long-lasting protective shield is created, improving animal health and reducing pathogen loads, all while promoting sustainability. The Qlayer System is formulated using a non-toxic, waterborne mineral dispersion. It is applied via spray and does not require any special equipment or protective gear. However, a mask is recommended during application to avoid inhaling the solid particles present in the droplets. With just a single application, the Qlayer System creates a protective shield that remains active for several months, ensuring long-lasting effectiveness and reliability.

Here’s the good news: scientists have found clever ways to “teach ” titanium dioxide to work not just with UV light, but with ordinary visible light —the kind that comes from sunlight through your windows or even from your LED or fluorescent lamps. How? A Little “Doping ” Goes a Long Way Think of pure titanium dioxide like a solar -powered robot that only wakes up when it hears a very high -pitched whistle (UV light). But most indoor light is more like soft talking or gentle music—lower energy, in the visible range (the colors we can see). To help the robot “hear ” this softer sound, scientists add tiny amounts of other elements—like nitrogen, carbon, or even silver —into the titanium dioxide. This process is called “doping ” (not the sports kind—think of it like adding a pinch of spice to a recipe to make it work better). These added bits change the robot ’s “ears ” so it can now respond to visible light. What Happens Indoors? Once the modified Tio2 coating is applied to indoor surfaces—say, your kitchen backsplash or bathroom wall—it quietly waits for light. W hen your room lights are on or daylight comes through the window, the coating activates: • It breaks down cooking grease, soap scum, mold spores, and even odors from pets or food. • It can kill bacteria and viruses on surfaces—helping keep your home healthier. • And if a little moisture is present (from cooking, showering, or even humid air), it helps wash away the broken -down dirt when you wipe or when condensation forms. It ’s like having a tiny, invisible cleaning crew working 24/7 —powered only by the light you already use!
