A sterilizer for an aquarium includes a pump for sucking water in an aquarium and a filtering member for filtering the water. The pump includes an inlet from which the water in the aquarium is sucked. The filtering member is connected to the underside of the pump and includes an outlet through which the filtered water flows back into the aquarium. Multiple reflectors are connected to the periphery of the filtering member, and a coat is mounted to outside of the filtering member and covers the reflectors. Multiple ultraviolet sterilizer bulbs are located in the filtering member so as to treat the water sucked from the pump. A cotton sleeve is mounted to the pump and located around the inlet to remove debris and grease.

A sterilizing module includes a main body and a light source. The main body includes an inner surface, an outer surface and an internal space to treat a target substance in a fluid and connected an inlet and a outlet. The light source is configured to emit light toward the internal space to sterilize the target substance in the fluid. The light source includes a substrate and a plurality of light emitting structures disposed on the substrate. The plurality of light emitting structures is disposed to be spaced apart each other. A first distance between two light emitting structures is adjacent to each other varies depending on a second distance from each light emitting structure to the inner surface of the main body. The second distance has a maximum value and a minimum value of illuminance and a difference between the maximum and the minimum value thereof is about more than 75%.

A vehicle system includes a tank for storing an aqueous solution; and a UV light decontamination module configured for decontaminating aqueous solution stored in the tank. The UV light decontamination module is arranged in a wall of the tank. The UV light decontamination module includes a light source compartment which is accessible from an external area outside of the tank; and a light transmission member configured to transmit UV light from the light source compartment to a liquid space in fluid communication with aqueous solution stored in the tank. The light source compartment includes a light source to emit UV light through the light transmission member to the liquid space.

In one aspect, a sterilization apparatus is provided to include a flow channel body comprising an inflow unit configured to provide an inflow channel through which water flows in one direction, a discharge unit configured to provide a discharge channel through which water is discharged, and a bypass channel unit configured to provide a bypass channel through which water bypasses in a different direction from the direction of the water flowing in the inflow unit; a mounting unit formed on the flow channel body and configured to provide an installation space connected to the bypass channel, a UV light emitting unit disposed in the installation space and configured to emit UV light towards the bypass channel; and a holder coupled to the mounting unit and securing the UV light emitting unit inside the mounting unit.

A point-of-use (POU) water filtration device has a container. A plurality of channels is formed within the container, water entering the container flowing through the plurality of channels. A plurality of Ultraviolet (UV) Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) is provided. Each of the plurality of UV LEDs illuminating UV light down an associated channel of the plurality of channels.

An Air-Water-Food-Fabric-Space-Utility sanitizer (all in one) comprises a detachable blower chamber, a detachable UVC lamp holder, a detachable UVC lamp chamber, a detachable water chamber and a detachable lid. Said invention transforms to an air purifier, a chamber-style sanitizer, or a stand-style sanitizer when one or more chambers are detached. Germicidal lamps surround a target such as air, water, food (meats, plants), fabric (masks, towels), space, utility and soil to kill pests, parasites, insects and pathogenic spores. Said invention also develops seed germination. Water converts gas (MVOC) to liquid and arrests airborne contaminants. A blower drives them to water to enable the use of optimal dosage of UVC light. By either UVC-irradiating water or oxidizing water, pathogens are destroyed in the water chamber. Filters activate spore dispersal when disposed by burning. By not using potentially hazardous waste or an air outlet, pathogenic spores cannot reproduce or return to the environment.

A method and system of providing ultrapure water for semiconductor fabrication operations is provided. The water is treated by utilizing a free radical scavenging system. The free radical scavenging system can utilize actinic radiation with a free radical precursor compound, such as ammonium persulfate. The ultrapure water may be further treated by utilizing ion exchange media and degasification apparatus. A control system can be utilized to regulate a continuously variable intensity of the actinic radiation.

The present disclosure relates to a cooling tower having a fill media, water distribution system, plenum, and an ultraviolet (UV) light emitter. The water distribution system distributes water to the fill media. A flow of air passes through the fill media and past a flow of the water and out of the cooling tower via an outlet. The plenum is defined by a volume between the fill media and the outlet. The UV light emitter is disposed in the plenum and configured to inactivate or kill organisms in a drift.

A disinfection apparatus and method is provided for disinfecting a fluid. The apparatus elements define three internal container volumes. Fluid is introduced into an entry volume where its flow is conditioned to reduce splash and slow the fluid flow. The fluid is then channeled into a disinfection volume where a disinfection unit delivers a disinfection agent to the fluid. Finally, the fluid exits the apparatus through an exit volume. In one aspect, a sink-trap is disclosed in which wastewater liquid contacts a pair of diverters. The diverters have conditioned contact surfaces that slows and spreads the liquid flow and reduces liquid splash. The wastewater then passes through a UV chamber in which it is disinfected. The liquid then exits the sink-trap. Advanced self-cleaning apparatus are additionally disclosed to clean and disinfect the sink-trap and trapped wastewater. The entire apparatus operates under computer control.

A portable water bottle includes a water bottle body having water stored therein; and a sterilizing module for irradiating the inside of the water bottle body with sterilizing ultraviolet rays. The sterilizing module further includes a housing having an ultraviolet outlet through which the sterilizing ultraviolet rays pass; a light source module for emitting the sterilizing ultraviolet rays; and a power storage member for supplying power to the light source module.
