UV-C LED combo aims at pathogens on airport baggage trays
LED iBond, based near Copenhagen, recently announced that its affiliate LED Aviation is supplying Dutch baggage and package handling automation company Vanderlande with a UV-C-emitting LED disinfection system that Vanderlande will build into luggage tray conveyor systems for airport check-in points. LED iBond owns 41% of LED Aviation and is making the subsystem for Aviation, using iBond technology.
While the announcement did not claim that LED Aviation's UV-C system would kill the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 — it made no mention at all of the virus, the disease or the pandemic — one might imply that LED Aviation, iBond, and Vanderlande hope that the system does indeed snuff out SARS-CoV-2.
