Bio-Fires - An Eco-Friendly Alternative to Real Fires

Biofires are a warm and cozy way to heat your home without releasing harmful gases or soot. They are easy to install and operate exactly like an electric fireplace.

The BARDA contract supports the development of the BioFire emerging CoV panel, a nucleic-acid Amplification test that will be used in conjunction with BioFire filmArray Systems for the detection of human acoronaviruses from nasopharyngeal oropharyngeal samples as well as saliva samples.

Eco-friendly

A bioethanol fire is an excellent alternative to wood or gas fires. The fuel is made from plant by-products, and employs a natural process to convert sugars into alcohol. It has many benefits over other fireplace types, including the absence of harmful emissions and a less carbon footprint. Bioethanol is also a more secure alternative to other types of fires as it does not produce smoke or soot. It also requires no flue, and can therefore be used anywhere in your home or garden.

A multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria is among the most dangerous health threats of our time. New methods of testing can identify MDR bacteria early and prevent further complications. One test that can help is the BioFire FilmArray multiplex PCR system. This test employs a symptom-driven approach to detect the most frequent pathogens that cause sepsis. The results are available within an hour so that providers can begin treatment right away.

The Molecular PCR process amplifies DNA and RNA molecules to millions or billions of copies. This allows the analysis of small samples of body fluid or tissue to determine if certain genetic sequences are present. It is an invaluable tool for laboratory professionals, and it can assist them in diagnosing serious illnesses in a timely and cost-effective manner. The BioFire FilmArray PCR system is an innovative tool for the diagnosis of infectious diseases, and it is suitable in a myriad of applications in hospitals and laboratories.

If you are undergoing respiratory tests, you can wipe a swab over your nose before sending it to the lab. BioFire's system offers a quick turnaround time and allows doctors to act quickly. This means less time waiting for results and improved outcomes for patients.

The Chanouf Farm Biofire company has created an agroforestry recycling unit that uses pear and olive waste to create biochar and biomass power. The resulting products are sold to the general public as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional charcoal briquettes made of coal and wood. These bio-waste products are suitable for burning in a Kachelofen-fire that produces radiant heat and is a more sustainable alternative to electric or gas fires.

Clean burning

When you make use of bio-fire, you're not just saving energy, you're also helping the environment by using a renewable fuel source. Bioethanol combustion doesn't produce harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide. It releases only heat and water vapour. This makes it a safer and cleaner option for indoor use.

Ethanol is made from the fermentation of sugars from plants and is classified as an alternative source of energy that can be used to generate renewable fuel. It can be produced rapidly and will not run out as fossil fuels, such as coal and oil. Bioethanol helps reduce the dependency on foreign imports and reduces the risk associated with shortages in supply.

Bio-fires are simple to set up and can be installed in existing fireplaces or as freestanding units. This makes them a convenient alternative to wood and gas fires. They're also ideal for offices and homes without a chimney or flue.

When a bio-fire is lit, the burner is fitted with a special media that absorbs the liquid ethanol fuel and makes it ready to be burned. The ethanol is ignited by the flames, and the vapours are emitted out into the atmosphere through the vent. This gives the flames a more natural appearance and a mesmerising beauty which cannot be duplicated by gas or wood fires.

Bio-fires benefit from not needing a vent or flue to replenish oxygen used in the process of combustion. They don't emit the carbon monoxide which is released into the air when gas fireplaces are open-fronted.

The BioFire Respiratory panel uses multiplex PCR to simultaneously test for respiratory pathogens. This takes about an hour. This lets doctors identify and rule out respiratory illness quicker than traditional lab tests, which require visits to the patient. This reduces time and costs for both patients and the health healthcare system.

Safe indoors

Bio-fires can be used indoors much safer than real fires because they don't produce smoke or ash, nor carcinogenic fumes. They also don't emit carbon monoxide that can be deadly if inhaled. However the bio-ethanol fuel is flammable and you must be cautious when handling your burner as well as refueling it. It should be filled only after the burner has been shut off and the fire is cool, and any spills need to be cleaned immediately.

The company's diagnostic FilmArray systems--BioFire 2.0 and BioFire Torch are easy to use and run eight different commercially available US Food and Drug Administration approved diagnostic panels, three additional panels that have been authorized for use in emergencies and six environmental test panels. These tests include a brand new respiratory panel that has been designed to quickly detect and differentiate between respiratory diseases, including COVID-19 and emerging coronaviruses.

The Biomedical Advance Research and Development Initiative, a part of the US Department of Defense Strategic Access Program has granted the COVID-19 Panel a grant. The COVID-19 test is an antigen-based method that allows doctors to differentiate the symptoms caused by COVID-19 or other respiratory diseases with a similar degree of accuracy as the current rapid antigen tests in use.

The company is also developing a SARS-CoV-2 test for its Respiratory Panel 2.1. This multiplexed nucleic acids amplification assay will be available for use on the BioFire FilmArray 2.0 and Torch Systems, and will detect SARS-CoV-2 and 21 other respiratory pathogens in nasopharyngeal and saliva samples within less than an hour. The test is being developed in a rapid timeline, and submission to the FDA for EUA and 510(k) approval is expected in Q3 of 2020.

Bio-ethanol flame effect fires are safe to use, but must be kept away combustible items such as pillows, curtains, and blankets. They should not be placed near anything that may catch fire and you should keep flammable objects at least 10 feet from them. The bioethanol corner fireplace (best site) fuel must be stored in a dry, secure area where it cannot be easily accessible by pets or children.

Simple to use

The bioethanol fireplace log burner biofuel fireplace insert doesn't have a chimney to be concerned about. You only need a place to store the fuel and a place to store it. Once you've filled the burner and lit it, ignite it. This will give the appearance of an actual flame. Once the flame is started it will heat the room, but it will emit very little or no smoke. It will also generate a lot of heat, similar to what wood-burning fireplaces do. Bio fires are also easy to maintain and don't require any maintenance other than a quick clean-up.

The BioFire RP2.1 EZ test, unlike most rapid tests that use the syndromic method of identifying the symptoms of common infections it can give results in 45 minutes. The test is designed for patients with upper-respiratory symptoms and has a sensitivity rate of 98 percent. The test can detect up to 19 viruses and three bacteria in one sample making it an excellent option for managing patients.

The BioFire platform combines multiplex testing, sample preparation, and result reporting in one integrated platform. This allows laboratories streamline their workflow, and eliminates the requirement for a sequential process that involves sending out a single test. This can result in improved outcomes for patients by allowing the correct test to be used the first time, and by removing the need for expensive tests based on culture. The BioFire system is able to detect pathogens at the cellular level and their antimicrobial resistance gene. This information is more reliable than conventional methods.

Molecular diagnostics are increasingly being used to improve the care of patients and outcomes. The BioFire RP2.1 plus panel makes use of an syndromic method to simultaneously target 23 of the most commonly implicated pathogens in respiratory infections. The assay is available on the BioFire film array 2.0 and Torch systems and delivers results in 45 minutes.

In the US, this assay is available currently under FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), and will be available commercially after initial DoD demand is satisfied. The BioFire Defense team has also developed a fully automated, sample-to result assay for rapid detection of COVID-19. This assay is in development and will be available when initial DoD requirements are satisfied.
