A disinfection apparatus for drainage piping of sanitary equipment includes a cleansing tank, a toilet bowl, and a drainage pipe connected to the toilet bowl. When the sanitary equipment is used, a fixed amount of cleansing water is supplied to the toilet bowl from the cleansing tank, and the cleansing water after cleansing the toilet bowl is drained from the drainage pipe. A sensor senses a supply of water to the cleansing tank. A chemical liquid pump supplies a fixed amount of chemical liquid from a chemical liquid tank to the cleansing tank. A control unit is configured to operate the chemical liquid pump by means of a water supply sensing signal from the sensor to supply a fixed amount of chlorine dioxide to the cleansing tank, thereby maintaining the concentration of chlorine dioxide in the cleansing water within the cleansing tank at a fixed concentration.

A method of treating a drainage system includes puncturing, by a controller, a pod retained by a pod housing, wherein the pod contains a drain treatment compound, and introducing, by the controller, water from a water supply to the pod retained by the pod housing to deliver the drain treatment compound dispersed in the water to a drain.

A device for disinfecting the interior of a drain pipe having a tubular wall formed with a hole between the sink drain inlet and the U-shaped trap. A UV-C LED module is positioned to register with the hole and includes a UV-C LED that generates a radiation beam having a predetermined radiation angle to transmit UV-C light into the drain pipe through the hole to irradiate at least a portion of said interior surface and expose airborne pathogens contained therein to UV-C light. A lens generally coextensive with the tubular wall has a peripheral edge aligned with the hole. The UV-C LED is spaced from the lens a distance to cause the radiation beam to extend up to but not beyond the peripheral edge of the lens to maximize transmission of UV-C light through the lens to maximize exposure of the interior surface and airborne pathogens to the UV-C light.
