Abstract
A high efficiency ultra-violet air purification system is disclosed. The system includes an apparatus for purifying air. The apparatus includes a chamber having a hollow interior and having an inlet and an outlet, the chamber having an inner reflective surface. The apparatus further includes an ultraviolet (UV) light source mounted within the hollow interior of the chamber between the inlet and the outlet. The apparatus further includes a honeycomb structure mounted to each of the inlet and the outlet of the UV chamber, the honeycomb structure having an array of hexagonal passages that are orthogonal to the inner reflective surface of the chamber, each hexagonal passage being at least partly coated with a UV catalyst and a UV light absorption coating.
