RESCUE Intellitech AB is excited to announce the launch of their new product, the DeconFilter Pro S. When the company first developed the Solo Rescue Decon Washer, its goal was to develop a decontamination solution that could help reduce firefighter’s exposure to carcinogens and other hazardous substances, in a quick, easy and safe way.

RESCUE Intellitech AB ended up doing a great job and their machines have now been shipped throughout the world to countries on four different continents. However, the optimized cleaning process does not mean their job is complete. The contaminated water also needs to be taken care of after the wash, and that is why they developed the DeconFilter Pro S.

The DeconFilter Pro S is focused on extracting and reducing the amount of carcinogenic PAH particles

The DeconFilter Pro S is focused on extracting and reducing the amount of carcinogenic PAH particles from the Solo Rescue wastewater.

Lab tests have shown that the DeconFilter Pro S was able to reduce the amount of PAH M and PAH H compounds, both of whom are currently being classified as carcinogenic by the Swedish EPA, in the wastewater by up to 98 %, or below detection level (depending on the burnt materials these numbers may vary).

Multi-stage custom filtration

To achieve these results, RESCUE Intellitech AB used a multi-stage custom filtration, including lint filter, particle filters, and active carbon filter. This allowed them to catch particles of various types and sizes, and prevent them from being flushed down the drain.

The filter system was developed to work seamlessly with the Solo Rescue Decon Washer and it fits perfectly on the right side of the machine. The filter system will initially be available in Europe, Asia, Oceania, and South America, with a launch in North America coming soon.
