Duncan Aviation is prepared to have Aviation Clean Air (ACA) portable ion-distribution units in use throughout the Duncan Aviation booth during the NBAA Convention, Oct. 12-14, in Las Vegas. These portable, electric-powered ionization units have been adapted for use in decontaminating the air and surfaces in aircraft interiors while on the ground, as well as other passenger areas, such as lounges, boarding areas and holding areas. The units will create increased air ions throughout Duncan Aviation’s booth during the show, potentially providing pathogen protection while allowing show attendees to see the units and learn about the benefits of patented bipolar ionization technology in its aircraft.
