after over 1000 emails to lawyers not being returned over the past 15 years about the USA government and the ugoslavian Colombo crime family committing gross human rights crimes on me I am homeless in Bulgaria and about to claim asylum to Turkey and bring trillions of dollars in industry including my self propulsion energy generation equipment with me. The amount of crimes these skeevy ugoslavians called the Colombo family committed on me is terrible. Read more at wwe.Electrolips.online or check out the sculpture and art page on this website (must have desktop mode enabled).  I also have never received emails after over 300 emails sent to manufacturers and investors for any of my products. It's very obvious crimes by the witness protection program agents and the Colombo crime family from ugoslavia. 

 

UV sterilization has been used for over 70 years to eliminate  pathogens. All of the components have been in use globally for decades and manufacturing is a simple process of this product. It is about as complicated as a Lamp. The beauty of the product is the retrofit capability as well as the Door and deflector that direct light from the surface the decive is mounted on to other locations where sterilization is wanted.  This si a very smart design and holds thousands of potential applications while reducing chemical signiture from harmful bleach, amonia, and alcohol production and residue. 

 

 

 

Where to Use UV Light Sterilization

Because direct exposure to strong ultraviolet light can cause blindness and skin burns to people and animals, sterilization generally takes place in shielded UV hoods or light-proof UV chambers. UV treatment works well in applications where bacterial contamination poses a problem on surfaces, in air or water in aquariums, ponds, laboratories and clean rooms.

How UV Light Sterilization Works

Ultraviolet light kills microorganisms by damaging their DNA. UV radiation disrupts the chemical bonds that hold the atoms of DNA together in the microorganism. If the damage is severe enough, the bacteria cannot repair the damage and the cells die. Prolonged exposure to UV light helps ensure complete kill-off of all microorganisms. Unlike chemical treatments, however, UV-treated air or water does not resist re-contamination 1.

Ultraviolet light kills microorganisms by damaging their DNA.

UV radiation disrupts the chemical bonds that hold the atoms of DNA together in the microorganism.

UV damages the reproductive parts of micro organisms.

Why Use UV Light Sterilization

Ultraviolet light penetrates the cells, but does not alter the surface, water, air or food being treated. Nothing is added to the medium except energy. Dead microorganisms also are not removed from the sterilized medium. Nor are organic or inorganic particles in the water or air. Some organisms, like certain molds, are not as affected by UV radiation. UV radiation is indicated in situations where chemical residue after sterilization is not acceptable.

    The use of Ultraviolet Light for sterilization and disinfection has been in our society for a long time. I first noticed it in mainstream use in a tattoo parlor in the mid 1990,s in New York city. The artists would further disinfect after manual cleaning their tools to sterilize them before hermeticaly sealing them for their next client. Until recently the UltraViolet light waves have been harmful due to their wave size. Now however with newly manufactured UV-C classification the radiation emitting diodes and bulbs are now safe for public spaces, businesses and homes.

    The use of PhotoVoltaic cells has been around for many decades and is common in todays society. Being utilized for powering objects from pocket calculators, entire homes,
structures, and vehicles to name a few of their many applications.

    The electronic components used are very common and utilized globally for decades due to their reliability and longevity. The more recently developed parts produce a compact streamline self-contained Disinfection unit with time delay,motion sensor cutoff capability and a long life cycle.

    The Sanitation Device is a self contained Uv-C Ultraviolet sterilization unit. It is designed for surfaces where sterilization is wanted. The unit itself is comprised of a motion sensor(s), Photovoltaic cell(s), Batterie(s), and Uv-C light emitting technology. The device detects motion and when motion stops the Uv-C disinfection cycle begins.  The cycle is halted immediately if new motion is detected and a new cycle begins after new motion ceases. It reduces chemical dependency in cleaning and disinfection .The device can be mounted on any surface that needs disinfection or adjacent surface that needs disinfection. It uses reflective technology which channels the UV-C rays and has slight directional capability for casting by use of a reflective panel that opens which broadens the surface area that can be sterilized and an adjustable deflector(s) for further directional control. It is linear shaped (except for the smaller version which due to its compact width creates additional depth due to Photocells on the sides and top of unit). However the units longer in length can be made without the side and top photocells due to the surface amount on the front of the device which holds enough area to house the Photocells needed to power the unit.   The Sanitation Device is also equipped with an external power port for use in conjunction with heavy traffic areas, which connects directly to AC/DC. The unit is equipped with a power button and a manual over-ride switch for stopping and starting the Uv-C sterilization cycle by manual switching.

The Current Limitations of UV Light in Hospitals which the Sterilization Device helps to Overcome through its compact and easily retrofit designs.

  • While UV light sterilization has shown its benefits, it also comes with significant limitations that hospitals should be aware of:
  • Surface-only sanitization: UV light is most effective on direct surface contact, which means it only sterilizes what the light can physically reach. Shadows, corners, and hidden surfaces are not treated. This leaves room for pathogens to survive in areas that are not fully exposed to UV light.
  • No continuous protection: UV light only disinfects during the time of application. Once the light is turned off, pathogens can return as soon as contaminated air or people enter the room.
