Problems solved by technology

[0015] In the case where ammonia is decomposed assuming the above-mentioned short wavelength (near ultraviolet region or UV light), not only the permeability of ammonia into the sealing resin (such as epoxy resin or silicone resin) is extremely high, but also The deterioration of the sealing resin due to the wavelength, or the direct corrosion of the LED chip (LED die) or the LED chip and the gold base electrode due to the penetration of the sealing resin, leads to a decrease in the illuminance of the LED, and there is a problem that it cannot be commercialized

Abstract

Disclosed is a long-life photocatalyst deodorization device (1) which effectively excites photocatalysts over the entire surface of a photocatalyst sheet and is capable of maintaining deodorization performance over a long period. Substrates (5 and 7) upon which vent holes (4) have been provided are disposed in parallel, and upon at least one substrate (5) of the two substrates, LEDs (3) are mounted. Between the two substrates, photocatalyst sheets (6) constituted by woven glass fiber material (6A) carrying photocatalyst particles (6B) and a frame (6C) supporting the material are disposed. The photocatalyst sheets and the two substrates are fixed to a housing (8), whereupon emitting surfaces of the LED light sources for exciting the photocatalysts and the photocatalyst sheets are disposed in parallel. Air fed from the vent holes is caused to pass through the photocatalyst sheets. The photocatalyst sheets are constituted by bundling glass fibers and weaving the fibers in a crisscross manner so as to have a predetermined aperture ratio such that ventilation is possible under low wind speed. The photocatalyst particles are mechanically held in contact between the glass fibers of the photocatalyst sheets.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a photocatalyst deodorizing device for deodorizing by decomposing odorous components or organic gas molecules in the air using a photocatalyst. Background technique [0002] In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for improvements in air purification in so-called quasi-enclosed spaces such as living spaces and inside cars. In particular, it is expected to reduce ammonia generated from food or as sidestream smoke from cigarettes, and VOCs generated from building materials, etc. (Volatile organic substances. Such as acetaldehyde) etc. to remove the deodorization device. [0003] At present, such a deodorizing device adopts a photocatalyst deodorizing device in which an adsorbent that absorbs odor components is kneaded or loaded on a porous ceramic surface layer or an inorganic substrate, and a photocatalyst that decomposes the odor components. The catalyst material is formed in a honeycomb shape, and the air...
