Itekhnoloji ye-Ultraviolet (UV) ye-disinfection ibe ngumdlali weenkwenkwezi kunyango lwamanzi kunye nomoya kule minyaka ingamashumi amabini idlulileyo, ngenxa yokukwazi ukubonelela unyango ngaphandle kokusetyenziswa kweekhemikhali ezinobungozi.

I-UV imele amaza amaza awela phakathi kokukhanya okubonakalayo kunye ne-x-reyi kwi-electromagnetic spectrum. Uluhlu lwe-UV lunokwahlulwa kwakhona lube yi-UV-A, UV-B, UV-C, kunye neVacuum-UV. Inxalenye ye-UV-C imele ubude obuvela kwi-200 nm - 280 nm, ubude be-wavelength obusetyenziswa kwiimveliso zethu zokubulala iintsholongwane ze-LED.
Iifotoni ze-UV-C zingena kwiiseli kwaye zonakalise i-nucleic acid, zibenza zingakwazi ukuvelisa, okanye i-microbiologically ingasebenzi. Le nkqubo yenzeka kwindalo; ilanga likhupha imitha yeUV eyenza ngale ndlela.

Kwindawo epholileyo, sisebenzisa i-Light Emitting Diodes (ii-LED) ukuvelisa amanqanaba aphezulu eefotoni ze-UV-C. Imitha ijongiswe kwiintsholongwane, iibhaktheriya kunye nezinye iintsholongwane ezisemanzini nasemoyeni, okanye kumphezulu wokwenza ezo ntsholongwane zingabi nabungozi ngemizuzwana.

Kangangokuba ngendlela efanayo ukuba ii-LED ziguqule umboniso kunye namashishini okukhanyisa, itekhnoloji ye-UV-C ye-LED isetelwe ukubonelela ngezisombululo ezitsha, eziphuculweyo kunye nezandisiweyo kunyango lomoya kunye namanzi. Umqobo omibini, ukhuseleko lwasemva kokuhluzwa luyafumaneka ngoku apho iinkqubo ezisekelwe kwi-mercury zazingenakusetyenziswa ngaphambili.

Ezi LED zinokudityaniswa kwiinkqubo ezahlukeneyo zokunyanga amanzi, umoya, kunye neendawo. Ezi nkqubo zikwasebenza kunye nokupakishwa kwe-LED ukusasaza ubushushu kunye nokuphucula ukusebenza kakuhle kwenkqubo yokubulala iintsholongwane.
