Phoebe, a precise, efficient ceramic heart.
A process that is safe for you and the environment.
Our innovative Phoebe technology is based on a process called photocatalytic oxidation or oxidative photocatalysis.
The ceramic filter is heat-treated with titanium dioxide (TiO2), so there is no release of the catalyst into the environment. Titanium dioxide has been modified to act with visible light of an appropriate wavelength, generated by a special LED board. The oxidation that takes place on the surface of the filter attacks polluting molecules of both a chemical and biological nature, breaking their bonds and transforming them into harmless substances.
The real benefits of Phoebe technology, for everyone.
-
Photocatalysis is activated by LEDs with visible light, avoiding the use of UV light and the resulting production of ozone.
-
The reaction on the surface of the filter is safe and transforms harmful agents into harmless substances.
-
Phoebe technology is patented and entirely Made in Italy, sustainable and durable.
Regenerating ceramic filters, truly irreplaceable.
Ceramic filters are the key components of our Phoebe technology. Their specific matrix, to which activated titanium dioxide is permanently heat-fixed, has a precise porosity that allows a very high surface area to be exploited, ensuring exceptional efficiency for a filter of this size.
Our filters have a guaranteed service life of at least 15 years, so there is no need to replace them cyclically. They can be regenerated and restored to their original conditions using only water, thus avoiding the risk of harmful substances accumulating on them over time and additional maintenance costs.

Results obtained with Phoebe
NOx is an abbreviation for “Nitrogen Oxides”, a family of gaseous pollutants that are generally the product of many human activities including primarily combustion, wastewater treatment, extensive agricultural activities and many others. Nitrogen oxides are responsible for chronic health problems, mainly related to the respiratory tract.
Where they occur: mainly in motor vehicle exhaust fumes, emissions from heating system burners (fed by gas, oil and wood pellets) and industrial emissions.
Test procedure: a BRID was placed in a 1 m3 glove box polluted with a concentration of 100 ppb NOx. The test was carried out by continuously measuring the air quality with a Thermo 42 I “Chemoluminescence” instrument with sampling every 10 seconds. This test was carried out by Colorobbia Consulting S.r.l.
