I te taenga ki te wā hei whakakapi i te huihuinga peera awaawa porowhita i horoia e te wheketere, ka tahuri anō a Philips Medical Systems ki a Ecoclean.
I muri tata mai i te kitenga o ngā hihi-X e Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen i te tau 1895, ka tīmata a Philips Medical Systems DMC GmbH ki te whakawhanake me te hanga i ngā ngongo hihi-X me Carl Heinrich Florenz Müller, he kaipupuhi karāhe i whānau ki Thuringia, Tiamana. I te marama o Poutū-te-rangi 1896, kua hangaia e ia te ngongo hihi-X tuatahi i roto i tana awheawhe, ā, i muri i ngā tau e toru ka patenthia e ia te tauira anti-cathode tuatahi kua whakamataohia ki te wai. Nā te tere o te whanaketanga o ngā ngongo me te angitu o te hangarau ngongo hihi-X i akiaki i te tono o te ao, ka huri i ngā awheawhe toi hei wheketere tohunga ngongo hihi-X. I te tau 1927, ka riro i a Philips, te kaipupuri hea kotahi i taua wā, te whakahaere i te wheketere, ā, kei te haere tonu tana hanga i te hangarau hihi-X me ngā otinga auaha me te whakapai tonu.
Ko ngā hua e whakamahia ana i roto i ngā pūnaha hauora Philips, e hokona ana i raro i te waitohu Dunlee, kua tino whai wāhi ki ngā whanaketanga o te whakaahua tātaritanga, te tomography rorohiko (CT) me te hihi-ira wawaotanga.
"Haunga ngā tikanga hanga hou, te tino tika me te arotau tonu i ngā tukanga, he mea nui te horoi i ngā wāhanga hei whakarite i te pono o te mahi me te roa o te ora o ā mātou hua," te kī a André Hatje, Kaiwhakahaere Matua mō te Whakawhanaketanga Tukanga, te Wehenga Ngongo Hiko-X. Me tutuki ngā whakaritenga poke matūriki toenga—e rua, iti iho rānei ngā matūriki 5µm me te kotahi, iti iho rānei te rahi 10µm—i te wā e horoi ana i ngā wāhanga ngongo hihi-X rerekē—me te whakanui i te horoi e hiahiatia ana i roto i te tukanga.
Ina tae ki te wā hei whakakapi i ngā taputapu horoi o te wāhanga whāriki porowhita a Philips, ka whakamahia e te kamupene te whakatutuki i ngā whakaritenga horoi teitei hei paearu matua. Ko te whāriki molybdenum te uho o te ngongo hihi-X hangarau-teitei, ā, i muri i te whakamahinga laser o te hanganga whāriki, ka mahia he mahi huri maroke. Whai muri i tēnā ka horoia, ā, me tango te puehu huri me ngā tohu paowa mai i ngā whāriki i mahue i te tukanga laser. Hei whakahaere i te whakamana tukanga, ka whakamahia ngā mīhini paerewa kiato mō te horoi. I runga i tēnei papamuri, i whakapā atu tētahi kaiwhakawhanake tukanga ki ētahi kaihanga taputapu horoi, tae atu ki a Ecoclean GmbH i Filderstadt.
Whai muri i ngā whakamātautau horoi me ētahi kaihanga, i kitea e ngā kairangahau ko te EcoCwave a Ecoclean anake ka taea te whakatutuki i te horoi e hiahiatia ana o ngā wāhanga whāriki awaawa porowhita.
E whakamahia ana e tēnei mīhini mō te tukanga rumaki me te rehu te wai horoi waikawa kotahi i whakamahia i mua i Philips, ā, e 6.9 mita pūrua te rahi o te whenua e kapi ana i tēnei mīhini. E toru ngā tāke waipuke, kotahi mō te horoi, e rua mō te horoi, ā, mā te hoahoa porotaka kua arotauhia te rere me te tūnga poutū ka ārai i te hanga paru. He ara iahiko pāpāho motuhake kei ia tāke me te tātari rere katoa, nō reira ka tātarihia ngā wai horoi me te horoi i te wā e whakakī ana, e whakakore ana, me te wā e karohia ana. Ka tukatukahia te wai whakakore-ion mō te horoinga whakamutunga i roto i te pūnaha Aquaclean whakauru.
Mā ngā papu e whakahaeretia ana e te auau ka taea te whakarerekē i te rere o te wai kia rite ki ngā wāhanga i te wā e whakakī ana, e whakakorea ana hoki. Mā tēnei ka taea te whakakī i te whare toi ki ngā taumata rerekē kia pai ake ai te whakawhitiwhiti pāpāho ki ngā wāhi matua o te huihuinga. Kātahi ka whakamarokehia ngā wāhanga mā te hau wera me te korehau.
"I tino harikoa mātou ki ngā hua o te horoinga. I puta mai ngā wāhanga katoa i te wheketere i roto i te ma, ā, ka taea e mātou te whakawhiti tika atu ki te rūma ma mō te tukatuka atu," te kī a Hatje, me te kī ko ngā mahi e whai ake nei ko te whakamahana i ngā wāhanga me te paninga ki te konganuku wai.
E whakamahi ana a Philips i tētahi mīhini ultrasonic maha-wāhanga 18-tau te pakeke mai i UCM AG hei horoi i ngā wāhanga mai i ngā tīwiri iti me ngā pereti anode ki ngā ringaringa cathode 225mm te whānui me ngā peihana anga. He rite tonu te kanorau o ngā konganuku e hangaia ai ēnei wāhanga – ngā rauemi nikara-rino, te maitai kore waikura, te molibdenum, te parahi, te tungsten me te titanium.
"Ka horoia ngā wāhanga i muri i ngā mahi tukatuka rerekē, pērā i te huri me te whakakikorua hiko, i mua hoki i te whakamahana, i te whakawera rānei. Nō reira, koinei te mīhini e whakamahia nuitia ana i roto i tā mātou pūnaha tuku rauemi, ā, kei te whakarato tonu i ngā hua horoi pai," te kī a Hatje Say.
Heoi, i tae te kamupene ki tōna taumata kaha, ā, ka whakatau ia ki te hoko i tētahi atu mīhini mai i UCM, he wāhanga o te SBS Ecoclean Group e tohunga ana ki te horoi tino tika me te tino pai. Ahakoa ka taea e ngā mīhini o nāianei te whakahaere i te tukanga, te maha o ngā mahi horoi me te horoi, me te tukanga whakamaroke, i hiahia a Philips ki tētahi pūnaha horoi hou he tere ake, he maha ake ngā mahi, ā, he pai ake ngā hua.
Kāore i horoia pai ētahi wāhanga ki tā rātou pūnaha o nāianei i te wā horoinga waenga, ā, kāore tēnei i pā ki ngā tukanga i muri mai.
Tae atu ki te uta me te tango i ngā mea, e 12 ngā teihana me ngā waeine whakawhiti e rua o te pūnaha horoi ultrasonic kua kati katoa. Ka taea te whakarite noa i ēnei, me ngā tawhā tukanga i roto i ngā tāke rerekē.
"Hei whakatutuki i ngā whakaritenga horoi rerekē o ngā wāhanga rerekē me ngā tukanga whakararo, e 30 pea ngā kaupapa horoi rerekē e whakamahia ana e mātou i roto i te pūnaha, ka tīpakohia aunoatia e te pūnaha waehere pae whakauru," te whakamārama a Hatje.
He rerekē ngā momo hopu o ngā whata kawe o te pūnaha hei kohi i ngā ipu horoi, hei mahi hoki i ngā mahi pēnei i te hiki, te whakaheke me te hurihuri i te teihana tukatuka. E ai ki te mahere, ko te putanga ka taea ko te 12 ki te 15 kete ia hāora e mahi ana i roto i ngā huringa e toru, e 6 ngā rā o te wiki.
I muri i te utaina, ka hangaia ngā tāke tuatahi e whā mō te tukanga horoi me te taahiraa horoi waenga. Mō ngā hua pai ake me te tere ake, kua rite te tāke horoi ki ngā ngaru ultrasonic maha-auau (25kHz me te 75kHz) i te raro me ngā taha. Kua whakanohoia te flange pūoko pereti ki roto i te tāke wai kāore he wāhanga hei kohi paru. Hei tāpiri, he pūnaha tātari raro kei te tāke horoi, ā, ka puea ake i ngā taha e rua mō te tukunga o ngā matūriki iri me ngā matūriki e mānu ana. Mā tēnei ka wehea ngā poke kua tangohia e kohikohi ana i te raro e te pūwero horoi, ā, ka mimitihia ki te wāhi o raro rawa o te tāke. Ka tukatukahia ngā wai mai i te mata me ngā pūnaha tātari o raro mā roto i ngā ara iahiko tātari motuhake. Kua rite hoki te tāke horoi ki tētahi taputapu tango hinu hiko.
"Kua whakawhanakehia e mātou tēnei āhuatanga me UCM mō ngā mīhini tawhito nā te mea ka taea hoki e mātou te horoi i ngā wāhanga ki te whakapiri oro maroke," te kī a Hatje.
Heoi, he pai ake te horoi hou. Kua whakauruhia he wai horoi rehu ki te wai whakakore iona ki te teihana maimoatanga tuarima hei tango i te puehu tino angiangi e piri tonu ana ki te mata i muri i te horoinga me te horoinga tuatahi.
Whai muri i te horoi rehu ka toru ngā teihana horoi rumaki. Mō ngā wāhanga i hangaia ki ngā rauemi rino, ka tāpirihia he aukati waikura ki te wai whakakore ira i whakamahia i te huringa horoi whakamutunga. He taputapu hiki takitahi kei ia teihana horoi e whā mō te tango i ngā kete i muri i te wā noho kua tautuhia, me te whakaoho i ngā wāhanga i te wā e horoi ana. Ko ngā teihana whakamaroke wāhanga e rua e whai ake nei he whakamaroke korehau infrared whakakotahi. I te teihana tango, ka ārai te whare me te pouaka rere laminar whakauru i te poke anō o ngā wāhanga.
"Mā te pūnaha horoi hou ka nui ake ngā kōwhiringa horoi, ka taea ai e mātou te whakatutuki i ngā hua horoi pai ake me ngā wā huringa poto ake. Koia mātou e whakaaro ana kia whakahoutia e UCM ā mātou mīhini tawhito," te whakatau a Hatje.
