Course Description: This presentation will discuss the use of Germicidal UV (and some non-UV) technologies that may be deployed to reduce pathogens in public spaces. Various technological solutions will be explored - reviewing the history of use, discussing how they work and their effectiveness for typical commercial applications. Additionally, design considerations and techniques will be discussed in depth for applying UV disinfection technology safely and effectively, incorporating luminaire concepts to supplement the delivery of ambient illumination. The presentation will also highlight the most recent advances in UV disinfection technology that offer more targeted capabilities for today's specific pathogen reduction needs.
