First Claim
Patent Images
1. A sanitizing station comprising:
- a housing;
a fluid source;
one or more plasma generators for generating non-thermal plasma; and
a plurality of nozzles for spraying a mist or stream of fluid through plasma generated by the one or more plasma generators to activate the fluid;
wherein the plurality of nozzles are directed in a plurality of intersecting angles to direct activated fluid to a plurality of surfaces on an object located within the housing.

Abstract
A sanitization station including a fluid source and one or more plasma generators for generating non-thermal plasma is disclosed. One or more nozzles spray a mist or stream of fluid through plasma generated by the one or more plasma generators to activate the fluid. The fluid is then used to sterilize an object. Another sanitization station includes a chamber for holding a fluid and a plasma generator in fluid communication with the chamber for generating plasma. A circulating source moves the fluid in the chamber past plasma generated by the plasma generator to activate the fluid and one or more spray nozzles coat the surface of an object with fluid that is activated by plasma.
