Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) for in-duct airborne bioaerosol disinfection: Review and analysis of design factors
See t.ly/o1sy — The rapid increase in global cases of COVID-19 illness and death requires the implementation of appropriate and efficient engineering controls to improve indoor air quality. This paper focuses on the use of the ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) air purification technology in HVAC ducts, which is particularly applicable to buildings where fully shutting down air recirculation is not feasible. Given the poor understanding of the in-duct UVGI system regarding its working mechanisms, designs, and applications, this review has the following key research objectives: (A) Identifying the critical parameters for designing a UVGI system, including the characterization of lamp output, behavior of…
