Alternative Technologies for the germicidal lamps (low-pressure mercury lamps)

Until today since the discovery of ultraviolet germicidal effectiveness in 1901, primarily low-pressure mercury lamps have been used for disinfection with ultraviolet. Low-pressure mercury lamps contain mercury and therefore generate concerns regarding environmental pollution. LEDs are expected to be an environmentally friendly alternative technology, similar to the LED replacement of fluorescent lamps. However, although improving year over year at a great rate, the current efficiency of UV LEDs is still less than low-pressure mercury lamps. Thus, the RoHS Directive exe...
