The Effectiveness of UV Lamps in Circulating Air Ductwork

Course Description:

In this course we cover the basic issues related to UV disinfecting in air ductwork, including the installation parameters that impact the effectiveness of UV lights in air ductwork and considerations regarding the effectiveness of UV lights with respect to germicidal irradiation to deactivate viruses, bacteria and fungi.

Learning Objectives:

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:

• Identify experimental methods and apparatus
• Know the microbiological measurements
• Know the in-duct irradiance model and dose calculations
• Know the UVGI efficacy in air ducts
