COVID-19: Utilizing technology to prevent radioactive substances: Developed by a nuclear power maintenance company

TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant:

A company that has undertaken maintenance management work at the TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant

“Negative pressure clean dome” was developed by applying the technology to prevent radioactive material diffusion.

For medical facilities, individual prevention of virus scattering from COVID-19 infected patients.

“Negative pressure clean dome”

Patients must stay in a “negative pressure room with low atmospheric pressure to prevent nosocomial infections.”

However, the negative pressure room of the hospital is limited.

If the negative pressure clean dome is attached to the patient’s bed, it is possible to prevent the infection of the medical staff in a state like a negative pressure chamber.

A mechanism in which the bed is covered with a non-woven cover and the air pressure is kept low by an electric air device.
