Description
Summary:The use of UVC is still applicable in today’s context with the emergence of COVID-19, supported by experiments that have revealed the effectiveness of UVC in inactivating the SARSCoV-2 virus, which serves as the origin of COVID-19. Ultraviolet-C (UVC) is well-known for its ability to disinfect air, water, and nonporous surfaces. This project aims to review and improve an existing prototype system that sterilizes cash notes through UVC radiation.
