As we recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for cleaner indoor air has become abundantly apparent. The use of UVC to disinfect air has emerged as one of the top methods to neutralize pathogens, as this makes the indoor environment much safer for its occupants. However, many challenges exist as direct UV exposure is harmful to life and effectively disinfecting a rapidly moving air stream in a closed system is challenging leading to ineffective products.
Porex is on the forefront of innovation in indoor air reflective UV disinfection systems, working with new concepts and technologies to help manufacturers make their UVC air disinfection systems more effective. In this webinar, we will discuss critical trends moving this emerging industry forward. Properly utilizing highly diffuse reflective media within a UV disinfection chamber can lead to higher efficacy, lower operating costs, longer system life, and a host of other benefits not possible with inferior reflective materials.
What you will learn in the webinar:
- What to look for in choosing the right UV air disinfection system and how to identify if it’s actually doing what is advertised to do.
- Understand key design criteria that can boost the system efficiency of a UV reaction chamber.
- Understand the effects of proper placement of air inlet/outlet and UV sources
- Learn the differences between common reflective materials, and why small changes in reflectivity can have a major impact in system performance
- Gain an understanding on how air disinfection operating costs can be lowered with proper design
