How It Works

VUV-Ozone technology is an innovative solution for addressing cooking fume and odour pollution. It uses Vacuum-Ultraviolet (VUV) irradiation to break down fume and odour molecules through photolysis and generates ozone, which further decomposes these molecules via ozonolysis. This effectively removes cooking fumes and odours from the air.

1

UV Light Emission
The process begins with a special VUV lamp emitting VUV light at a specific wavelength (185 nm). This initiates the breakdown of harmful molecules in the air.

2

Ozone Generation
When VUV light interacts with oxygen molecules in the air, it splits them into single oxygen atom, which then recombine with O2 to form ozone (O3). Ozone serves as a powerful agent in purifying the air.

3

Oxidation
Ozone, being a highly reactive molecule, readily breaks down grease and odour molecules, effectively eliminating them from the air. This results in a cleaner, fresher environment.

Benefits

Effective Odor Removal
With high grease and odour efficiency; >90% and 80% -90%

Improved Air Quality
It improves exhaust air quality by removing odorous compounds and airborne grease. This is vital in urban areas with dense residential population

Safe and Environmentally Friendly
By removing odorous compounds and airborne grease, the system significantly enhances indoor air quality. This is especially vital in densely populated urban areas where poor air quality can contribute to health issues such as allergies and respiratory problems. Improved air quality promotes overall well-being for residents.

Low Maintenance
The VUV-Ozone system requires minimal maintenance and no frequent filter changes, making air quality management hassle-free for busy restaurants

Application Process

Identify Odour Sources
To maintain efficient airflow, it’s crucial to design exhaust systems thoughtfully. The minimum exhaust duct length should be 5 meters to ensure effective odour removal and compliance with safety standards. Our team can assist in creating a customised design that meets your specific needs.

VUV-Ozone Technology Design
With an increase in the number of stoves, larger cooking areas, or heightened cooking activities, it is necessary to install additional VUV lamps in the range hood.

Exhaust Duct System Design
To ensure efficient performance, design exhaust systems carefully. The duct should be long enough for the ozone reaction to complete in 2 seconds, preventing excessive emissions. Also, consider the range hood’s power and air volume capacity for effective operation.

Regular Maintenance
Regular maintenance of VUV lamps is vital for sustained performance. Simply replace or snap in new lamps as needed; They typically last up to 12 months, ensuring your system operates at peak efficiency.
