A new study published in Scientific Reports shows that Far-UVC light at 222 nm can effectively kill airborne pathogens. The research, conducted in a room-sized chamber, found that Far-UVC light can greatly reduce harmful viruses like influenza and coronaviruses without harming human skin or eyes. This makes Far-UVC a safer and more effective option than traditional UV light, which can be dangerous for humans.
The study highlights the potential of Far-UVC technology as a powerful tool for cleaning the air in various places, such as public spaces, healthcare facilities, and other high-risk areas. Using Far-UVC light in these environments can improve air quality and significantly lower the risk of spreading infectious diseases, making them safer for everyone.
