Nuvohla enhances disinfection via photocatalysis technology

Monday 08 June 2026

Photocatalytic technology, now also integrated into Nuvohla, involves the incorporation of an advanced active air purification system that reduces atmospheric pollutants, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), odours and microorganisms present in the environment. As an integrated feature within the unit, it enhances the air’s disinfecting capacity, promoting healthier, more comfortable and more sustainable indoor spaces.

 

What is photocatalytic technology?

Photocatalysis is an air purification technology that uses ultraviolet light to activate a semiconductor material. This process generates reactive compounds capable of breaking down pollutants present in the air. It is known as active disinfection technology.

Unlike traditional filters (passive technology), which merely trap particles, photocatalysis transforms pollutants into simpler, more stable substances, helping to improve indoor air quality.

 

Due to its effectiveness and low maintenance requirements, it is a technology widely used in environmental hygiene and air purification applications.

 

Photocatalysis in Nuvohla

 

Nuvohla is an advanced solution for improving indoor air quality. The optional incorporation of photocatalytic technology enhances the device’s performance through integration with the existing system.

 

This configuration offers a particularly attractive solution for spaces where environmental quality is a critical factor for well-being, safety or user experience.

 

Photocatalytic technology acts continuously on the airflow treated by Nuvohla, helping to:

 

Reduce odours.

Reduce the presence of pollutants.

Improve the perception of environmental freshness.

Complement ventilation and filtration strategies.

Promote healthier environments.

 

Direct integration into the equipment also simplifies installation and eliminates the need for separate air purification systems.

 

Sectors of application

Offices: Air quality influences occupants’ comfort and the overall perception of the working environment.

Healthcare facilities: Environmental management is essential for ensuring safer and more comfortable spaces.

Hotels: Odour removal and enhancing the guest experience are key differentiating factors.

Commerce and retail: Commercial spaces aim to create pleasant environments that encourage visitors to stay longer.

Education: Classrooms and communal areas have high occupancy levels for much of the day.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  1. Does photocatalysis replace filters?
    No. Photocatalysis acts as a complementary technology. The combination of filtration and photocatalytic treatment offers better overall results.
  2. Can it reduce environmental odours?
    Yes. One of its main benefits is the reduction of molecules responsible for persistent odours.
  3. Does it use chemicals?
    No. The process is based on the activation of a catalyst by light energy and does not require any additional chemicals.
  4. Is it suitable for public buildings?
    Yes. It can be used in offices, hotels, healthcare centres, retail premises, educational establishments and light industrial facilities.
  5. Does photocatalytic technology require a lot of maintenance?
    It requires minimal maintenance, which depends mainly on the characteristics of the integrated system and the operating conditions.
