Project EPEP (Escalator Pathogen Eliminator Project)

** 每天我们都接触到数以百万计的微生物，包括有害的细菌，细菌，病毒和病原体，导致传染病的传播。自动扶梯和人行道扶手含有数以百万计的细菌，细菌和病毒，导致传染病的传播。在当前的Covid-19世界中，由于缺乏实用、持久和无毒的解决方案来应对这一日益增长的健康风险，病毒传播的风险仍然不必要地高。我们创建PürHealth专注于通过识别使细胞失活的解决方案来防止活性病原体的传播，而不使用刺激性或有毒化学品，使用紫外线。我们的自动扶梯和人行道扶手紫外线消毒装置的创新概念可以轻松地连接到任何自动扶梯或人行道扶手上，并立即开始消除超过98%的导致传染病传播的细菌和病毒。它是自我供电和安全。*紫外线辐射存在于太阳光中，约占太阳总光输出的10%。有三种不同类型的紫外线; A，B和C。虽然它们是相似的，但每种类型的射线具有不同的波长，并且可以在一定程度上穿透表面。UV-C光具有100-280 nm的短波长并且是杀菌的。它使细菌、病毒和其他病原体的DNA失活，从而破坏它们繁殖和致病的能力。紫外线C在地球表面很弱，因为大气层的臭氧层阻挡了它。人体皮肤对紫外线C辐射的吸收长度非常短，几乎没有紫外线C辐射可以到达皮肤中的活细胞;所有的吸收都发生在死细胞层中。**我们的创新确保了紫外线灯在公共场所的安全和有效使用。**简单地说，当细菌或其他类型的微生物直接暴露在UV-C光下时，细胞的DNA（其基本组成部分）被破坏，阻止其复制。如果细胞不能复制，那么细胞就不能引起感染。**UV-C甚至可以中和对抗生素产生耐药性的“超级细菌”，并已被证明可以杀死与当前流行病有关的SARS病毒家族。

**Every day we come into contact with millions of microbes including harmful bacteria, germs, viruses and pathogens which lead to the spread of infectious diseases.**Escalator and walkway handrails contain millions of germs, bacteria and viruses which lead to the spread of infectious diseases.**In the current Covid-19 world the risks of virus transmission remains needlessly high due to the lack of a practical, persistent and non-toxic solution to address this growing health risk.****We created PürHealth to focus on preventing the spread of active pathogens by identifying solutions that render the cells inactive, WITHOUT the use of harsh or toxic chemicals, using UV light.****Our innovative concept for an Escalator & Walkway Handrail UV Disinfection Unit easily attaches to any escalator or walkway handrail and immediately starts to eliminate over 98% of the bacteria and viruses that lead to the spread of infectious diseases. It is self powered and safe.****The science**UV radiation is present in sunlight, and contributes about 10% of the total light output of the Sun. There are three different types of UV rays; A, B and C. While they are similar, each type of ray has a different wavelength and can penetrate surfaces to a certain extent.**UV-C light has a short wavelength of 100-280 nm and is germicidal. It deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens and thus destroys their ability to multiply and cause disease.**UV-C light is weak at the Earth's surface as the ozone layer of the atmosphere blocks it. The absorption length of UVC radiation in human skin is extremely short so that almost no UVC radiation can reach the living cells in the skin; all the absorption occurs in the dead cell layers.**Our innovations ensure that the UV light is safe and effective for use in public places.**In simple terms, when bacteria or another type of microbe is directly exposed to UV-C light, the DNA (its fundamental building block) of the cell is damaged, preventing it from replicating.If a cell cannot reproduce, then the cell cannot cause infection. **UV-C can even neutralize 'superbugs' that have developed a resistance to antibiotics and has been proven to kill the SARS family of viruses of which the current pandemic is related.**
