The blue science UV-C technology has been developed to provide an easy retrofit system for all existing air-conditioning equipment to treat and protect the air, by constant disinfection, every time it passes through the unit. 

UV-C disinfection is proven technology used in the food processing and water industries. Through germicidal irradiation, the UV-C light attacks the dna/dnr of micro-organisms, killing 99.9% and rendering bacteria and viruses harmless and unable to reproduce or spread. 

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Blue science utilises the disinfectant properties of uv-c light to convert an air-conditioning unit into a powerful air purifier. Warm and contaminated air is pulled in through the top of the unit, where it is then cooled via the unit’s cooling coil. Bluescience immerses the air around the cooling coil in uv-c light, sanitising it during the process. The cool air is then dispensed by the air-conditioning unit free of virus, bacteria, moulds and odours.

WHAT IS UV-C?

Ranging from 100 nanometers (nm) to 280 nm it’s exposure deactivates the dna of bacteria, virus, and other pathogens by destroying their ability to reproduce and cause disease.

​When biological organisms are exposed to uv-c light it is absorbed by dna, rna, and proteins. Absorption of uv-c by proteins leads to a rupture of the cell wall and inactivation of the organism. With sufficient exposure, the dna replication process is disrupted, and the cell cannot replicate, in fact, when the organism tries to replicate, it dies.
