Abstract

Efficient, rapid means of air decontamination are needed against widespread respiratory pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. This study demonstrated the efficacy of advanced photohydrolysis technology in significantly reducing infectious, aerosolized SARS-CoV-2, achieving over 99% viral inactivation. Proof-of-concept assessments for respiratory syncytial virus and monkeypox virus showed similar results, suggesting broad applicability. These findings highlight the potential of the novel technology to enhance air purification and infection control strategies against multiple airborne viral pathogens.
