Why watch this on-demand webinar
The emergence of UV disinfection and using UV energy to disinfect air has become a topic of great interest.
At the IUVA Americas fall 2022 conference, almost 70 presentations were given covering various topics related to this industry. IUVA AMERICAS CONFERENCE Due to the number of excellent presentations, the time was limited to 15 minutes plus 5 minutes to cover each topic. Porex presented results from a groud breaking study working together with the Georgia Institute of Technology Research Institute (GTRI) in providing an in depth study comparing different designs and configurations of a UV air disinfection chamber and developing a computer simulation model to predict UV energy levels within a defined chamber depending on the configuration and reflective media chosen. This webinar is a full review of the insightful data generated and the modeling software developed and a overall more in depth presentation versus the summarized version presented at the IUVA Conference.
Who should watch this webinar:
Perfect for design and manufacturing engineers or equipment specifiers who either have a potential product concept, want to validate energy levels within the kill zone, or need to fix a problem or optimize an existing product to meet new efficiency standards. This webinar will explore the science behind how different reflective media and chamber configurations can have a major impact in efficiency and effacy and how these choices can be the game-changer for optimal air sterilization device functionality and performance.
What you will learn in this webinar: (full version of IUVA fall presentation)
Learn differences between different types of reflective materials and reflection types and why diffuse reflection is preferable to specular reflection when designing a disinfection chamber
Gain a better understanding of how the selection of reflective media can cause major increases in energy consumption or loss in efficacy and how to avoid these pitfalls
See a demonstration of different types of reflective media and how different types perform differently in a UV reaction chamber
A review of the modelling software that was devloped to simulate the environment within a UV reaction chamber and how this can assist with the design of an optimal system.
