A composition for disinfecting air including a biochar combined with a biocide. According to an embodiment, the biocide is mechanically active, i.e. it destroys, prevents the action of the pathogenic microorganism by mechanical action and without chemical action. Another aspect relates to a device for disinfecting air including the composition and a support. Another aspect relates to the use of the composition for disinfecting air or a disinfection device for reducing the amount of pathogenic microorganisms in an air flow. The present disclosure relates to the field of air disinfection. In an embodiment, it can be applied to the treatment of air for the purpose of suppressing pathogenic microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi. An embodiment can be applied in an air treatment device for treating enclosed spaces such as an entire structure or specific spaces in a building or any transport vehicle.

A heat exchanger includes a metal base defining a heat exchange channel for flowing at least one of a refrigerant and a coolant therein, and a coating layer coated at least a part of an outer surface of the metal base. The coating layer includes sol particles and an antibacterial material, where the sol particles include silica. The antibacterial material includes a rare earth element oxide. By combining the antibacterial agent containing the rare earth element oxide with sol, the advantages of each component can be fully utilized. On the one hand, it is easier to attach the antibacterial material via the sol, and on the other hand a surface of the metal base of the heat exchanger can have a good antibacterial and mold-inhibiting effects, which is beneficial to cost reduction.
