We developed a novel, compact upper-room ultraviolet germicidal irradiation system with light-emitting diode sources (UR-UVGI-LED) to enhance the disinfection of bioaerosols in an enclosed room space. Its effectiveness was evaluated and compared with the conventional upper-room ultraviolet germicidal irradiation system with mercury vapor sources (UR-UVGI-MV). Escherichia coli, Serratia marcescens, and Staphylococcus epidermidis were atomized under the well-mixed condition and exposed to UR-UVGI-LED (or UR-UVGI-MV) device. The intensity output of the UR-UVGI-LED was also varied from 0% (no LED), 25%, 50% to 100% to further evaluate the UR-UVGI-LED disinfection effectiveness under different power levels. The decay rates for UR-UVGI-LED ranged from −0.1420 ± 0.04 min−1 to −0.3331 ± 0.07 min−1 for Escherichia coli, −0.1288 ± 0.01 min−1 to −0.3583 ± 0.02 min−1 for Serratia marcescens, and −0.0330 ± 0.01 min−1 to −0.0487 ± 0.01 min−1 for Staphylococcus epidermidis. It was noticed that the intensity level had a non-linear influence on the UR-UVGI-LED’s performance. The decay rates achieved by the UR-UVGI-MV system were −0.3867 ± 0.08 min−1, −0.4745 ± 0.002 min−1, and −0.1624 ± 0.02 min−1 for Escherichia coli, Serratia marcescens, and Staphylococcus epidermidis, respectively. Hence, the disinfection performance of both UR-UVGI-LED and UR-UVGI-MV systems was comparable for Escherichia coli and Serratia marcescens. These results demonstrate that the UR-UVGI-LED system has a high potential to be used as a safe and effective irradiated light source to disinfect indoor airborne pathogens. 相似文献

The flushing of toilets generates contaminated aerosols, the transmission of which may cause the spread of disease, particularly in the immunocompromised or the elderly. This study investigated the emission strength of three types of airborne bacteria, namely Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas alcaligenes, during toilet flushing in a custom‐built toilet under a controlled environment. Flushing was activated by a flushometer operated at two pressure levels, 400 kPa (high pressure [HP]) and 200 kPa (low pressure [LP]), and by a water cistern tank placed 95 cm (high tank [HT]) and 46 cm (low tank [LT]) above the toilet seat. The pathogens emitted by the first flush were calculated, with the correlations between airborne pathogen emissions and droplet concentration (HP, r=0.944, P<.001; LP, r=0.803, P<.001, HT, r=0.885, P<.05) and bacterial size (HP, r=?0.919, P<.001; LP, r=?0.936, P<.001; HT, r=?0.967, P<.05) in the different conditions then tested. The emission strength in the HP condition was statistically greater than that in the LP condition, whereas the cistern tank system produced less emissions than the flushometer system, and tank height was not found to be a sensitive parameter. 相似文献

Modeling can play a particularly useful role in ultraviolet (u.v.) disinfection because of difficulties in measuring u.v. dose and the immediate results of disinfection. This model predicts bacterial survival in flow-through systems. The calculation takes into account the complex intensity patterns, non-ideal flow patterns, and non-linear curves of log survival vs u.v. dose. Based on the organismal dose-response, the number of survivors in each fraction of the residence time distribution is calculated separately and summed to calculate the average survival. The model uses as input data: the average u.v. intensity within the system, the residence time distribution, and an experimentally determined dose-survival curve in a simplified system where dose can be directly measured. The predictions of the model corresponded well with measured survival in a u.v. pilot plant study. The model was used to show the effects of flow dispersion on average survival by varying residence time distribution. Measures of capacity and efficiency of u.v. systems were derived and illustrated experimentally in simple cylindrical batch units and in two multiple lamp units. 相似文献

The effect of medium pressure ultraviolet radiation on Giardia muris was studied using a collimated beam apparatus with filtered surface water from the Grand River, Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. UV doses ranged from 5 to 83 mJ/cm2 and resulted in 2–3 log-units of reduction in infectivity measured by a C3H/HeN mouse infectivity model. In vitro excystation and nucleic acid staining with Live/Dead BacLight™ greatly underestimated the inactivation of Giardia when compared with animal infectivity. Medium pressure ultraviolet radiation is a potential alternative to conventional chemical disinfection methods. 相似文献

Historically, typhoid and cholera are well-recognized waterborne infections. Advances in laboratory techniques over the past 20 years have enabled a wide range of other faccally-excreted bacteria, viruses and protozoa to be identified as causing gastrointestinal infections. Record outbreaks are referred to where some of these micro-organisms have been spread by the contamination of drinking water, either at source or during distribution. This has usually happened when the water was untreated, or where there have been failures of the disinfection process or breaches in the integrity of the distribution system. Recent waterborne outbreaks of cryptosporidiosis have underlined the importance of adequate filtration in the prevention of waterborne transmission of this protozoon, the oocysts of which are completely resistant to the levels of chlorine that can be attained in water treatment practice. An outline is given of the current processes by which pathogenic micro-organisms are excluded from drinking-water supplies; their potential deficiencies for dealing with some of the 'newer' waterborne pathogens are also discussed. 相似文献

About 35 years ago the island of Jersey in the Channel Islands set about rationalizing and modernizing its sewage-treatment operations. Treatment was carried out in one central, advanced sewagetreatment works producing a Royal Commission effluent which received nominal dilution in a small stream before discharging into the sea in one of the foremost bathing areas on the island.
In 1989, a thorough investigation was carried out on the options to secure an environmentally acceptable solution to effluent disposal. The investigation concluded that disinfection, in combination with a change to the outfall discharge point, offered the most cost-effective solution. Alternative disinfection techniques were identified, which recognized the nature and sensitivity of the receiving waters and the limited space available on the site. Only ultraviolet disinfection was suitable.
An ultraviolet disinfection system depends on the exposure of the micro-organisms causing disease to their germicidal wavelength. Light of this wavelength (about 253.7 nanometres) is absorbed by the nucleic acids in the cell which damages or rearranges the genetic information, effectively rendering the cell unable to replicate and resulting in the death of the cell.
In over 300 installations in North America the system has proven to be reliable, simple, economic and, above all, environmentally acceptable.

Biological regrowth in a water distribution system can be avoided by either maintaining a free chlorine residual to suppress growth or controlling conditions which may support growth, or by a combination of both. Micro-organisms will grow in water only if nutrients are present in sufficient amounts; conversely the reduction of biodegradable nutrients in water is vitally important in controlling the regrowth of microorganisms and zooplankton in the distribution system. The measurement of assimilable organic carbon has been developed as a way of evaluating the concentration of biodegradable material which is available to support such biological growth.
This paper describes the pilot-plant and full-scale studies carried out at the Berenplaat water-treatment works, Rotterdam to (a) improve disinfection, (b) eliminate the formation of trihalomethanes and other halogenated compounds formed by chlorination, and (c) reduce the final water assimilable organic carbon concentrations to very low levels, so that a high degree of biological stability can be maintained in the distribution system. 相似文献

A novel whole ceiling upper‐room ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) system [eggcrate ultraviolet (UV)] has been developed that incorporates open‐cell ‘eggcrate’‐suspended ceiling panels and bare UV lamps with a ceiling fan. Upper‐room UVGI is more effective for air disinfection than mechanical ventilation at much lower installation and operating costs. Conventional upper‐room UVGI fixtures employ multiple tightly spaced horizontal louvers to confine UV to the upper‐room. These louvered fixtures protect occupants in the lower‐room from UV‐induced eye and skin irritation, but at a major cost to fixture efficiency. Using a lamp and ballast from a conventional upper‐room UVGI fixture in the eggcrate UV system, the germicidal efficacy was markedly improved even though the UV radiation emitted by the lamp was unchanged. This fundamental change in the application of upper‐room UVGI air disinfection should permit wider, more effective application of UVGI globally to reduce the spread of airborne infection. 相似文献
