Abstract

As a result of the Coronavirus, both supply chain and internal logistics processes at factories have changed a lot. In many areas, the effectiveness of the logistics processes has declined because of the restrictions implemented against the virus. The study lists some adverse effects where logistics processes had to be modified due to the changing and protection measures against or negative effects of the virus. The authors also argue that these restrictions decreased the efficiency of logistics processes and workers' productivity. One option to increase the logistics sector's efficiency is to use air purification technologies, like the ones studied in this paper: UV-C, Bioxygen® or plasma-ion decontamination technologies. These disinfection processes can create a safe indoor environment. The authors analyse the examined technologies with SWOT analysis. The analysis results demonstrate which disinfection application is the most beneficial to help in improving indoor air quality for logistics processes.

分析因新冠肺炎疫情而降低的室内物流效率的消毒技术

受新冠肺炎疫情影响，工厂的供应链和内部物流流程都发生了很大变化。在许多地区，由于对该病毒实施了限制，物流流程的有效性有所下降。该研究列出了由于病毒的变化和保护措施或负面影响而不得不修改物流流程的一些不利影响。作者还认为，这些限制降低了物流过程的效率和工人的生产力。提高物流部门效率的一个选择是使用空气净化技术，如本文所研究的:UV-C、Bioxygen®或等离子体离子净化技术。这些消毒过程可以创造一个安全的室内环境。运用SWOT分析法对被检验的技术进行分析。分析结果表明，哪种消毒应用最有利于改善物流过程的室内空气质量。
