“The rising demand for ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment in health care organizations is likely to boost industry growth,” Grand View Research reports. “The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the supply of this equipment and its components since manufacturers are unable to satisfy the increasing demand and have reached their maximum production capacity. These firms should expand their manufacturing facilities to address the increasing demand from end-users, which is not possible in a short period.”
UV air purification is an established technique, and several organizations such as WHO and CDC have repeatedly promoted its usage in labs, hospitals, operating rooms, and colleges. Furthermore, UV air purifiers are advised to enhance the air quality in both the residential and commercial sectors by removing particulate matter and dust, which is thought to reduce coronavirus transmission.
With the rise of COVID cases, several hospitals have begun implementing UV systems to disinfect high-risk indoor settings, which is projected to increase product demand in the coming years. UV disinfection systems have a lower environmental effect than sodium hypochlorite and chlorine gas since UV is largely controlled by the composition of the electrical grid.
UV disinfection systems have been acknowledged by public health agencies as an effective technique for treating drinking water, reclaimed water, and wastewater. This has prompted nations throughout the world to implement these systems since they are safe and do not require the use of toxic chemicals to conserve water resources and meet sustainability goals.
