Germicidal Light Bulbs
Germicidal Light Bulbs while not exactly science fiction, lead an exciting life, as they have more uses than a standard lamp. It’s because they possess powers that are harnessed and used in commercial and scientific industries and the subsequent results enable us to live in a cleaner and safer world.
Who knew the Germicidal lamps were part Rock Star, and part household appliance? Let’s take a peek at their hidden and probably unheard of talents, because whilst they burn brightly, they are usually under appreciated.
The stuffy boardroom would become a breeding ground for the nasty nasties if not for the Air Purification System that relies heavily on the Ultraviolet or UV light bulbs housed inside. These fragile little lifesavers work tirelessly to eradicate germs by fueling the breakdown of microorganisms. The powerful rays remove the bacteria’s reproductive capabilities, thus rendering the germs harmless or killing them altogether.
Germicidal Light Bulbs also have vast commercial uses. Food Services are a great example, In 2001 the FDA or Food & Drug Administration enacted a law requiring certain products undergo a mandatory sterilization process before being certified for human consumption. Germicidal lamps and the high frequency rays emitted by them assist in ridding foods and beverages of harmful bacteria and they have also been using the technology to make drinking water safe. I am sure you can appreciate these little workhorses, they really make our everyday existence possible, in fact without them sickness and disease would have surely dwindled down our food supply as well as the general human population.
Restaurants take advantage of the properties of these lamps. That buffet’s lighting system is not as it seems, how do you think they manage to keep the food from making us sick? You guessed it. Laboratories rely heavily on Germicidal lamps and their UV properties for everything from instrument sterilization to controlled environments for experiments. The bulbs also have cleaning properties similar to that of the black lights detection capabilities. Aquariums depend solely on the use of the lamps, and their input is instrumental in their water filtration system. It’s not as easy as cleaning your home fish tank, billions of gallons of water can’t simply be poured down the drain. The filtering system cleans the recycled water before being reintroduces to the Aquarium and the continued use of Germicidal lamps assist in keeping the waters clean, bacteria free and ensure that the ecosystem is safe.
Commercial Fisheries also rely on the technology of Germicidal lamps for the same purpose, with one slight difference; the lamps ensure that the fresh water pumped into the pond is disinfected to a predetermined standard before being introduced to the holding area. Home and Garden enthusiast worldwide are huge fans of Germicidal lamps for their ability to control pests and provide the added benefit of Vitamin D to indoor gardens. Got to love them rays!
