Plasma ozone is utilized in a variety of applications in the field of sterilization due to its high sterilization performance. Dielectric materials used in DBD(dielectric barrier discharges) are mainly polymer, quartz and ceramics. These dielectric layers have the advantage of limiting the amount of supplied electron charge and allowing plasma to occur evenly on the surface of dielectric. Actually, the target or environment for sterilization is often a complex structure, so research and academic study are needed by utilizing the concept of space sterilization. In this study, the device is applied to generate DBD plasma at atmospheric pressure for disinfection due to the effectiveness in producing radicals and ozone. The generator of plasma ozone is a basic structure of dielectric barrier discharge by placing ceramic tube dielectrics and stainless steel electrical conductors at regular intervals. Various applications can be developed based on the proposed design method. Plasma ozone generation for space sterilization device is recognized as an excellent sterilization device. Through the design and verification of the device, we intend to establish an optimal design of the spatial sterilization device and provide the basis data for sterilization applications.

In this paper, we design, fabricate, and test the performance of a cabin filter with LED modules of composite wavelengths containing UV-A and UV-C. Germs and air farms of the manufactured cabin filter confirmed sterilization capability in the sterilization test, and special chambers were manufactured to verify organic material decomposition capability in the organic compound decomposition test. Using colkates as photocatalytic was proved to be superior to using metal mash. The sterilization and air purification capabilities of the cabin filter produced throughout this study were verified through a similar environmental test.

From the point of view to prevent airborne infection-related diseases such as H1N1, SARS, and MERS, an actual application of air cleaning and purification systems including technologies like UVGI has become increasingly important. Recently, an air purification system using REME (Reflective Electro Magnetic Energy) developed in the U.S. is applied for indoor air purification and sterilization technology to counteract the outbreak of new airborne infections. In this study, an air sterilization performance experiment using REME was carried out. The results verified that air sterilization performance in the case of installing a REME system in a medical center was 31%, namely the number of floating bacteria decreased by 31% after only a five-day operation. In addition, the number of culture collections in the REME operating air conditioning systems using nonpathogenic Geobacillus stearothemophilus as a biological indicator decreased maximally to 67%. A field application of REME technology will be useful to prevent airborne infection-related diseases, especially in response to public health crises due to the advent of emerging diseases.

When we bury the infected poultry into the ground, we have many problems such as the difficulty of making sufficient area for burying, environmental contamination by the leachate, unpleasant ordor. Also, in case of burning the carcass of the infected poultry, there are some problems such as high cost, dust, unpleasant odor, etc. It could cause environmental contamination which many peoples and environmental organization complains about. In this study, we develop a treating system which treats the infected poultry carcass in a environmental method preventing the environment contamination. This system is composed of many processes. The euthanasia system uses rigid vinyl to trap and to do a euthanasia the infected poultry with lethal gas, carbon dioxide. And then, with the tractor attached grappler infected poultry carcass could be put into the carcass treating system. The euthanasia system uses rigid vinyl to trap the infected birds and to confine lethal gas, carbon dioxide. Infected poultry carcass are moved to carcass disposal system by collecting device which is attached at tractor. The carcass treatment system (capacity of disposal : 6.3 $m^3$) is installed on a truck and do one pass work, which is input, crush, stir, sterilize, and discharge treated carcass. 1,000 chickens was killed within 9.7min by $CO_2$ (300L/min) in the tent (10 $m^3$). The collecting device could carry 142 chickens at a time, and the movable carcass treatment system could sterilize 2 tons carcass per hour (at one time). This treatment systems was eco-friendly because it reduced the volume of carcass by 31.9% with no wastewater generation.

Interest in application of ultraviolet light technology for primary disinfection of potable water in drinking water treatment plants has increased significantly in recent years. The efficacy of disinfection processes in water purification systems is governed by several key factors, including reactor hydraulics, disinfectant chemistry, and microbial inactivation kinetics. The objective of this work was to develop a computational fluid dynamics(CFD) model to predict velocity fields, mass transport, chlorine decay, and microbial inactivation in a continuous flow reactor. The CFD model was also used to evaluate disinfection efficiency in alternative reactor designs. In a typical operation, water enters the inlet of a UV lamp and flows through the annular space between the quartz sleeve and the outside chamber wall. The irradiated water leaves through the outlet nozzle. In this paper, it describe the how to design optimal ultraviolet disinfection device for ground water and rainwater. To search the optimal design method, it was performed computer simulation with 3D-CFD discrete ordinates model and manufactured prototype. Using proposed design method, performed simulation and proved satisfied performance.

Recently, the use of UVGI system has been increasing in both medical and nonmedical buildings for the control of environmental microorganisms. In the present study, irradiance performance test of UVC lamp was carried out and indoor air sterilization effect of UV ray for preventing transimission of air borne contagion was investigated by using manufactured UVC air sterilizer. Experimental results show that the effective irradiance of UVC lamp is strongly dependent on air velocity and temperature in irradiance performance test. An individual microbiological killing effectiveness experiment also shows that the average kill rate of two microbiological samples such as bacteria and fungus is about $92\%$ by using manufactured UVC air sterilizer. Additionally irradiance performance experimental results also show that the ballast is very important factor to keep up irradiance performance of UVC lamp.

Recently H1N1(swine flu) and SARS has been infected widely in the world; we have to care about germs and virus in indoor air environment. The air sterilization system investigated in this study allows occupants to turn on/off and to control the incoming air speed and direction. To predict the performance of air sterilization system without real experiment, a simulation is considered to compare and analyze the performance of the air sterilization systems in a typical office space. Multiple system parameters including volume flow rate and velocity of supply air were varied and investigated during the simulation. The investigation result shows that difference (between simulation and experiment) was about 3.5% in case of minimum air flow rate and about 0.2% in case of maximum air flow rate. The results indicate that multi-zone simulation technique can be used to predict the performance of a sterilization system in personalized office.
