Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market

Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market is expected to exceed the market valuation of US$ 11 billion by 2027 by showcasing a CAGR of 14.8% during the forecast period (2021-2027). Disinfection is the elimination of virtually all pathogenic organisms from inanimate objects and surfaces which reduces the level of microbial contamination to a safe level. Most commonly chemicals are used to disinfect a surface. Decontamination on the other hand is essential to prevent researchers from the exposure and contamination of experiments. When working in a biological lab, all materials that are being taken out must be decontaminated before leaving the lab. Decontamination is mainly used to reduce the microbial contamination of materials or surfaces and can be done with the use of a chemical disinfectant. In contrast to these, sterilization is the destruction of all microbial life. This is typically done with heat and steam through autoclaving. UVC Radiation disinfection was especially popularized during the coronavirus pandemic because of its ability to destroy the outer protein of SARS-CoV virus.

Microorganisms can be denatured with UV irradiation by denaturing their DNA leading to their death or inactivation. Inactivation is achieved at various UV wavelengths ranging from 100 to 400 nm. 254 nm is the most effective. Most UV lamp systems (especially low-pressure lamps) supply 254 nm specific monochromatic irradiation. UV irradiation is described in terms of milliwatts per square centimeter (mWf/cm2). The dose that is required to inactivate a specific microorganism is usually described by a UV irradiation intensity multiplied by the exposure time (i.e., mW s/cm2 or mJ/cm2), because UV inactivation of microorganisms usually follows first order kinetics with respect to UV intensity. Low pressure UV lamp systems typically provide an exposure time of 6-30 s; a longer exposure time will be needed when higher UV irradiation doses are required.

The covid-19 pandemic took the world by a storm. As of 1st August 2020, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) report there were a total of 17 million confirmed coronavirus cases and more than 675 thousand deaths in 213 countries around the world. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) brought out the potential of UV disinfection technology and could highlight the scientific and engineering potential of bio contaminated air and surfaces as the major media for disease transmission. Major public settings worldwide are nowadays implementing the use of UV disinfection devices for disinfection of frequently touched surfaces and circulating air streams. This technique is being used from hospitals to airports to other healthcare facilities. UV disinfection equipment’s have also been used to sterilize various often touched surfaces like doorknobs, keypads, PPE kits and air purification devices with an integrated UV disinfection technology. The correct amount of UV radiation required to completely neutralize the SARS strain is essential to find. According to Duan and co-workers, a 4.0 mJ cm-2 UV dose is required for the inactivation od 90% of the SARS strain. A recent genomic model by Kowalski indicates the UV rate constant for SARS-CoV-1 to be 3.289 cm2 mJ-1, suggesting 0.7 mJ cm2 for 90% reduction.

Based on Component, the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment market is segmented into UV Lamp, Controller Unit, Quartz Sleeve, Reactor Chamber, and Others. The controller is the main operational component of the disinfection equipment. Recently the demand for smart controller units has increased significantly over conventional controller unit. The smart conventional controller unit comes with lamp change timers, trouble indicator lights and UV alarms which helps with the consumer service of the disinfection equipment at proper interval of time.

Based on Marketing Channel, the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment market is segmented into Direct Marketing and Indirect Marketing. Amongst marketing channel, direct marketing segment accounted for a market valuation of US$ XX million in 2020. The key reason for the higher revenue of the direct marketing segment is that it helps seller to reach potential customers. According to a survey conducted by NLPIP, Upper room air purification and in duct air purification are the most UV disinfectant products at 58% and 55% respectively.

Based on Application, the Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment market is segmented into Water Treatment, Wastewater Treatment, Air Treatment, Food & Beverage Disinfection, and Surface Disinfection. The Water Treatment segment is further segmented into Municipal water treatment, Residential water treatment, and Commercial water treatment. The air treatment segment is further segmented into Healthcare facilities, Residential and commercial, and Bio terror agents. The UV light of wavelength 253.7 nm is used for the disinfection of bacteria, molds, viruses, algae, and other microorganisms which multiply and grow.

Based on end-user, the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment market is segmented into Residential, Commercial, and Industrial. Amongst end-user, the industrial segment of the market was valued at US$ XX million in 2020. Rapid decontamination of patient care beds and hospitals rooms before the admission of the next guest is highly important and beneficial for sanitization. The germicidal effects of UVC irradiation are at its peak with 254 nm intensity which results in cellular damage of the virus, inhibiting cellular replication.
