Disinfecting indoor environments can reach new levels with the use of Ultraviolet (UV) light. Here is a closer examination of the latest technology in the field.
An Introduction to UV Disinfection
Disinfecting indoor environments can be a layered process that includes manual cleaning and the application of disinfectants. This is because microorganisms such as:
- Staphylococcus aureus
- Escherichia coli
present a complex challenge for those wanting to provide adequately disinfected indoor environments. While manual cleanings can be performed to achieve this, supplemental methods, like the application of Ultraviolet (UV) light, can also be used.
UV light, especially Ultraviolet C (or UV-C) light at wavelengths of 254 nanometers (nm), has been associated with the reduction of these microorganisms at very high rates of efficacy.1
UVD Robots for Disinfection
UVD Robots are a series of mobile, self-navigating robots that use 254 nm UV-C light to disinfect indoor areas. They are produced by Blue Ocean Robotics, a Danish company that develops and manufactures mobile robots for the service industry.
As self-navigating, autonomous robots, UVD Robots are able to close distances and distribute UV-C light to areas that may have previously been obscured by shadows.2
This allows UVD Robots to inactivate microorganisms such as:
- Staphylococcus aureus
- Escherichia coli
at very high efficacy rates.3 UVD Robots have been associated with reductions of these microorganisms at over 3-log to over 6-log efficacy rates, or a reductions at rates of over 99.9% to over 99.9999%.
UVD Robots offer elevated rates of disinfection through the use of self-navigating UV-C technology. The autonomous mobility of UVD Robots provides a dynamic approach to environmental disinfection, especially when using UV-C light.
