The BKM 3.0 device is equipped with 2 UV-C germicidal lamps, emitting at 254nm, and a fan with two air velocity settings.
The internal surfaces, especially shaped and patented, have been located in away to maximize surface illumination by the UV-C lamps. Furthermore, the photocatalyst was finely distributed over them.
The coupling of photo-catalysis technology with the germicidal effect of UV-C radiations in a single device has been
made possible through experimentation on a laboratory scale, which have allowed to validate a complex mathematical model.
The results of the study have identified the
maximum effectiveness in this product configuration: the dimensions of the purifier and of the photocatalytic coating, based on nano particles of titania, as well as the choice of the
internal geometry and the position of the lamps, are the optimal ones for the pathogens and VOCs
abatement at the passage of the internal air flow.
