Ubuchwepheshe bokubulala amagciwane be-Ultraviolet (UV) buye benza inkanyezi ekuhlanzeni emanzini nasemoyeni eminyakeni engamashumi amabili edlule, ngenxa yengxenye yekhono labo lokuhlinzeka ngokwelashwa ngaphandle kokusebenzisa amakhemikhali ayingozi.

I-UV imele ubude bamaza obuphakathi kokukhanya okubonakalayo kanye ne-x-ray ku-spectrum kagesi. Ibanga le-UV lingabuye lihlukaniswe libe yi-UV-A, UV-B, UV-C, kanye neVacuum-UV. Ingxenye ye-UV-C imele amaza amaza asuka ku-200 nm - 280 nm, ubude begagasi obusetshenziswa emikhiqizweni yethu yokubulala amagciwane e-LED.
Ama-photon e-UV-C angena kumaseli futhi alimaze i-nucleic acid, awenze angakwazi ukuzala, noma angasebenzi nge-microbiologically. Le nqubo yenzeka emvelweni; ilanga likhipha imisebe ye-UV eyenza ngale ndlela.

Lapho kupholile, sisebenzisa i-Light Emitting Diode (ama-LED) ukuze sikhiqize amazinga aphezulu ama-photon we-UV-C. Imisebe iqondiswe kumagciwane, amagciwane kanye namanye amagciwane angaphakathi emanzini nasemoyeni, noma ezindaweni ezingaphezulu ukuze enze lawo magciwane angabi nangozi ngemizuzwana.

Ngendlela efanayo nama-LED aguqule ngayo izimboni zokubonisa nezibani, ubuchwepheshe be-UV-C LED busethelwe ukuhlinzeka ngezixazululo ezintsha, ezithuthukisiwe, nezinwetshiwe kukho kokubili ukwelashwa komoya namanzi. Isithiyo esikabili, isivikelo sokuhlunga ngemuva sesiyatholakala lapho amasistimu asuselwa ku-mercury ayengeke asetshenziswe ngaphambilini.

Lawa ma-LED angase ahlanganiswe ezinhlelweni ezihlukahlukene zokuphatha amanzi, umoya, nezindawo. Lawa masistimu aphinde asebenze nephakeji ye-LED ukuze ahlakaze ukushisa futhi athuthukise ukusebenza kahle kwenqubo yokubulala amagciwane.
