Abstract

As COVID-19 and potentially other contagions continue to ravage global populations, the FRC is singularly focused on finding ways to battle the novel corona virus and most bacteria. Researchers have developed ultraviolet LEDs (UV-C LED) that have the ability to decontaminate surfaces, air and water that have come in contact with a range of bacteria and viruses

Overview

“Applications in medical situations include the disinfection of personal protective equipment, surfaces, floors and within the HVAC and water filtration systems, etc.

Research of UV-C light demonstrates a 99.9% sterilization of corona-virus (COVID-19) in approx, 30 seconds with UV-C LED products. This technology is also in use with mobile UV-C LED lamps that sterilize the interior of unoccupied Ambulances, Mobile Hospitals/Clinics, Mortuary and other First Responder Vehicles.

It should be noted, that UV-A and UV-B are the types we get a lot of here on Earth courtesy of the Sun which have important uses, however, UV-C is the ultraviolet light of choice for purifying air and water and for inactivating microbes. These can be generated only via human-made processes.

Warning

• UV-C light in the 260 — 285 nm range most relevant for current disinfection technologies is also harmful to human skin. Using ultraviolet disinfection lamps to sanitize hands or other areas of the skin, even a brief exposure to UV-C light can cause burns and eye damage, this is why the applications used are shielded from any exposure to humans either by being placed inside an enclosed device for purifying air and water or sensors on surface machines to turn off if humans enter the room.

The emergence of the SARS, MERS, Ebola, COVID-19 and other natural and man-made biological contagions has added another dimension to our wellbeing and as the world races to find vaccines, therapies and cures for these diseases, disinfection, decontamination and isolation are the few weapons we have to defend ourselves, and these solutions will need to be deployed worldwide.

Whilst many advocate for chemical vaccines and cleaners, they do not totally destroy the bacteria or viruses and can be transferred to infect others.

Create a fundraising group

If you, your group or your community raise all the funds for one or many items then those items will be made available directly to a Civil Defence, Rescue, Law Enforcement or Paramedic service in the locality of your choice. A plaque will also be placed on the item/s with your name or community as the donor/s for the life of the item.
