Ionization
No not a scientist but thanks for the compliment Rag!!!
As far as I’m aware Ionization is caused by the use of electrons or an electron field, which causes Ion’s to seperate for a brief period of time and then recombine, this has the effect of a release of energy, which at at a low charge can remove impurities from the air and in water.
In the case of a fire it may help with giving someone more time to breath if the fire has produced high levels of carbon monoxide, you can actually buy Ionized fire detectors, which may give you more time to flee before being overcome by noxious fumes.
