KRONOS ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES PROVIDES WEARABLE BIOAEROSOL SENSORS TO SCHOOLS FOR MONITORING CLASSROOM AIR QUALITY

Los Angeles, CA, April 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KRONOS ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (OTC MARKETS: KNOS) ("KNOS" or the "Company"), an innovation-driven product development and production company that has significantly changed the way air is moved, filtered, and sterilized announced today availability of Company's wearable bioaerosol and in-classroom air quality monitors at no cost for the pilot IAQ research study initiated by the Company.  The study aims to collect and develop Kronos National School Air Quality Data gathered by Its Canario Wearable monitors. Canario monitors will upload data to the cloud in real-time. They will allow school principals and districts to monitor air quality in each classroom and track its effect on students and school personnel.  Schools using the Kronos smart filter-less air purifiers report consistent, very low levels in particulate contamination concentrations and improved air quality at far below the EPA standards. Recent testing shows that the Kronos air purifiers reduce 99.9% of viruses, mold and fungus, and allergens from the air.

Inspired by California's recently enacted AB-841 legislation, which redirects funds to heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) upgrades in schools and wildfire impacted communities and seeking to address Sacramento's high levels of smog and air pollution, Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-CA), along with 31 colleagues, sent a letter to the Biden Administration to support the creation of a program for HVAC system maintenance and energy efficiency upgrades in our nation's schools.

As the country continues to suffer from the devastating impacts of COVID-19, wildfires become more severe due to the climate crisis, and school districts re-open nationwide it will be crucial to establish dedicated funds to address new and existing issues with school HVAC units. Making these changes is vital to improving indoor air quality to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 and the risk of toxic air pollution. Further, as a part of our transition to sustainable infrastructure, it will be key to ensure that our schools are equipped with the latest, energy-efficient ventilation technologies.
