Are Chinese schools using air sterilizers?

With the development of global health, especially under the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic, schools in various countries are actively seeking effective protective measures to ensure the health and safety of teachers and students. In China, the use of air sterilizers has gradually received attention and attention from schools.

Types of air sterilizers

There are several main types of air sterilizers, including ultraviolet sterilizers, negative ion generators, photocatalyst sterilizers, and HEPA filters. Among them, ultraviolet sterilization is fast and efficient, and can effectively kill bacteria and viruses in the air; negative ion generators can improve air quality and make the air fresher; photocatalyst sterilizers use photocatalytic technology to decompose harmful substances in the air under light conditions.

Current status of school use

During the epidemic, many schools began to actively purchase and install air sterilizers, especially in crowded places such as classrooms, libraries, and laboratories. The education department also encourages schools to take necessary air disinfection measures to reduce the risk of virus transmission.

Schools in some cities have incorporated air sterilizers into the regular health management system, not only in daily teaching, but also in combination with relevant disinfection and ventilation measures to ensure the freshness and safety of indoor air. In addition, some schools will regularly inspect and maintain air disinfectors to ensure their normal operation.

Impact and Challenges

Although the use of air disinfectors has effectively improved air quality and reduced the risk of infectious disease transmission, its popularization also faces some challenges. First, the cost of air disinfectors is relatively high, which may be a burden for some schools with poor economic conditions. Secondly, when schools use air disinfectors, they also need to cooperate with good ventilation and daily cleaning measures. Air disinfectors alone cannot completely eliminate viruses and bacteria in the air.

Future Outlook

With the continuous advancement of science and technology, air disinfection technology will be more diversified and intelligent in the future. Various new types of air disinfection equipment are expected to be put into daily use in schools. At the same time, schools and parents will continue to pay more attention to air quality, promoting the construction of a higher standard campus environment.

The trend of using air disinfectors in Chinese schools is becoming increasingly obvious. Although there are still some challenges, the application of air disinfectors has laid the foundation for achieving a healthy campus in terms of improving campus hygiene and safety. With the further development of society, it is believed that the application of air disinfection technology in the field of education will be more extensive, escorting the healthy growth of students.
