With classes slowly shifting to offline mode, the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has now asked colleges to install air-sanitisation devices based on ultra-violet C band irradiation. AICTE member secretary Professor Rajive Kumar said that during the pandemic, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) have developed possible solutions and interventions required to contain the tremendous challenge faced by the country due to covid. “The aerosol, air-borne route of the virus is now considered as the most likely cause for spread of infection. This mode of virus dispersal has been confirmed by major agencies like WHO. As a possible mitigation measure, CSIR institutes have developed air-sanitisation based on ultra-violet C band irradiation. These devices, once extensively implemented in community spaces like schools and colleges, have potential of reducing cross-infections and restoring students’ confidence in academic places,” he said. These AICTE-approved institutes have been suggested to take necessary steps for installation of these devices, auditoriums, buildings, and AC buses, etc. The circulating air-flow technology has been suggested for lifts, toilets and washrooms while a standalone air-circulation technology for rooms has the potential of reducing cross infections during physical classes in the current academic year.
