The 13 pages that link to Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation, each with the reason it gives.

• DisinfectionRelated: It disinfects exposed air, water, and surfaces without applying a chemical residue.

• ChlorinationCompared with: UV can inactivate microbes without adding a chemical residual to treated water.

• UltravioletBroader topic: UV-C damages microbial genetic material, enabling disinfection of air, water, and surfaces.

• Swimming poolCompared with: UV treatment supplements chemical disinfection but does not leave a lasting sanitizer residual.

• Drinking waterRelated: UV can inactivate pathogens without adding a persistent disinfectant to the supply.

• Water chlorinationCompared with: UV can inactivate pathogens without adding a chemical disinfectant, but provides no lasting residual.

• ChloramineCompared with: UV treatment can disinfect water without adding a persistent chemical residual.

• Recirculating aquaculture systemRelated: UV treatment can reduce suspended pathogens as treated water returns to culture tanks.

• Water disinfectionRelated: It can inactivate microbes without adding a chemical residual to the water.

• Swimming pool sanitationRelated: UV systems can reduce chlorine-resistant pathogens and chloramines, but provide no lasting disinfectant residual.

• Ultraviolet-BCompared with: Germicidal systems mainly use ultraviolet-C, rather than the solar ultraviolet-B band.

• Air purifierRelated: UV systems target some airborne microbes, but do not remove particles or gases by themselves.

• AerobiologyRelated: UV exposure can reduce the survival of airborne microorganisms.
