How
Ventilation Systems Could Help Stop the Spread of the
Virus
At
the moment, the coronavirus has shown no signs of slowing through
close contact with others. However, engineers at the
University of Alberta believe it could be spreading through
airborne transmission,
as well, according to Global News. To help solve that
potential issue, those engineers are looking to bring safe and
healthy air to indoor spaces. In fact,
"Improving ventilation systems in high-occupancy structures could
be a critical way
to contain the pandemic… This work has the potential to impact
millions of people living and working in these
buildings."
With more than 35 million people around the world now infected,
with more than 1.03 million unfortunate deaths, improving
ventilation
systems in buildings could assist in the fight against the
virus. That being the case, some of the top companies to keep
an eye on include Manganese X
Energy Corp. (TSXV:MN)(OTC:MNXXF),
Koninklijke
Philips NV (NYSE:PHG),
Whirlpool
Corporation (NYSE:WHR),
Honeywell
International Inc. (NYSE:HON),
and Unilever
NV (NYSE:UN).
Manganese X
Energy Corp. (TSXV:MN)(OTC:MNXXF) BREAKING
NEWS:
Manganese X Energy Corp.
through
its subsidiary, recently acquired a U.S. patent
that provides for a system and method for air purification and
disinfection. The company will be expanding on this timely and
relevant technological theme and is pleased to welcome Lino G.
Morris, a globally recognized expert in air quality
systems and
management.
Martin Kepman,
CEO of Manganese X comments, "Lino", as he is known worldwide, is
held in extremely high regard as a leading designer and developer
of innovative scientific and healthcare solutions, biological
manufacturing operations and systems
design. He brings a unique blend of talents in both
technology and management demonstrated in a wide range of projects
worldwide in the sciences, product research & development,
manufacturing and implementation. Lino has a reputation with
governments and
companies in a dozen countries for rapidly overcoming all obstacles
and delivering on commitments".
For many years
starting in 1971, Lino was the Responsible Head and an owner of FDA
licensed facilities that produced both medical products
for human use
and ran R&D operations to develop and manufacture a range of
both medical therapeutic use and medical laboratory testing
products for a wide variety of the major pharmaceutical companies.
He grew the original USA facilities into production
operations in
several other countries and expanded his markets to a wide range of
international markets.
He
is currently the CEO of the PureBiotics®
Group which
started investigating the applications of probiotics for external
healthcare applications in 2007 and in 2008
acquired the exclusive rights for a European line of probiotic
products for North America and a range of other countries and for
several specific applications and expanded research for 'stabilized
external use probiotics for environmental control
applications.'
These
"StaBiotics"®
products
proved to be a major break-through and a truly "disruptive
technology" with applications that became proven for a wide range
solutions from the medical field (where it can reduce the risk of
millions of hospital
infections capable of saving countless lives and billions of
healthcare dollars) to home use and for allergy and asthma
sufferers (where PureBiotics®
safely removes
allergens, contaminants and other irritants); for millions with
skin problems from blemishes, acne
and rashes to psoriasis (making skin feel and look better while,
most important, significantly lowering the risk of infections); for
effectively removing/deconstructing biofilm and that the solutions
keeps working for days, down to the actual microscopic
level, providing true ongoing protection and cleanliness for all
facilities from restaurants to homes and from hospitals to farms
and animal facilities as well as thousands of other applications
from HVAC to water systems. And, by working at the microscopic
level, it is the world's most effective deodorizer system,
providing true odour
deconstruction.
Lino, who has
specialized in the medical field since the late 1960's, was also
the founder and CEO of the WorldHub group in 1994, which
provided unique,
"neutral", technology and switching center services and products,
originally for hospital systems, which then grew into the full
range of telecommunications operations and facilities both
domestically and internationally, where hundreds of
carriers and users
were served from his network of facilities with Centers in New
York, Newark, London and Miami (the photo shows Company's New York
Nortel Switch Room).
After selling
his interests in WorldHub in January 2005 (though he still directed
the Company's London
operations through 2007), Lino returned full time as CEO of the
General Sciences Group, where one of the Company's prime interests
from 2001 had been in its Medical Sciences Division was developing
new patents for a non-contact monitoring system.
Additional
operations of the Group were providing EcoSense solutions for the
removal of hydrocarbons and other impurities from storm water and
many other water contamination sources to a range of clients from
the IPEX Group in Canada to hundreds of installations
for the City of Miami. These ecological systems have successfully
been installed in several dozen countries and in many locations
from Cape Kennedy to Sweden. These types of hydrocarbon
deconstruction products are currently being added to the
PureBiotics
Line as well. Lino was also on the advisory boards of several
public companies and has headed or assisted in the technology
operations and international activities for a number of
others.
Lino also
served for several years as Director of Exchange Services
for Interoute, a large European group that built the newest and
largest fiber network in Europe, covering some 300 locations in 16
countries. At that time, Lino was also a partner in a company that
acquired 130 communications towers in 22 States.
For a number
of years, Lino headed the Communication Sciences Group, which
originally designed medical systems and then grew into building and
installed communications switching and other systems around the
world, initially for hospitals, which evolved to providing
neutral stored value and financial transactions systems and which
led to the development of WorldHub.
A
contributor to several patents, his background includes authoring
numerous publications and he has been a member of many professional
organizations,
boards and committees. He has a proven track record in business and
as a consultant in dozens of countries around the world, with
clients including a number of governments and many major
international companies.
The company
further confirms 500,000 stock options will be
granted to Lino Morris at an exercise price of 50 cents for a
period of three years from the date of grant and vesting
immediately.
