PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., Aug. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Molekule Group, Inc. (“Molekule” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: MKUL), a leading air purification technology company, today announced new laboratory results that highlight the power of the Company’s proprietary photoelectrochemical oxidation (“PECO”) technology and its ability to destroy what conventional filters leave behind.

Key Points: 
  • Three new studies were completed, including one from Florida International University, that demonstrate that Molekule’s PECO technology can safely destroy a vast range of indoor air pollutants.
  • PECO technology for air purification reacts with ultraviolet light to oxidize pollutants, including viruses, bacteria, mold, ozone, allergens, volatile organic compounds, particles found in smoke and chemicals, and break them down into harmless molecules.
  • PECO technology not only captures but destroys pollutants at a microscopic scale, ultimately helping people who suffer from specific pollutant triggers breathe better air,” said Jaspreet Dhau, Molekule’s vice president and head of research and development.
