Description of the Related Art A conventional air purifying apparatus is generally equipped with an adsorption filter using activated carbon, zeolite, metal oxide or the like as an air purifying material. In recent years, there is also an air purification device that purifies contaminated air by irradiating ultraviolet light to a photocatalyst filter containing titanium dioxide as a main component.

The irradiation is performed by oxidizing and decomposing contaminants adsorbed on the filter 2. The filter 2 is a honeycomb carrier having a cell number of 200 cells per square inch formed of ceramic fiber and a photocatalyst containing hydrophobic zeolite and anatase type titanium dioxide as main components at a ratio of 1: 1 to 0.1 g / cc. Is a filter carried at a ratio of The shape is a shape obtained by combining a honeycomb and forming a hexagonal rectangular tube having air permeability in the radial direction from the outer periphery to the center, and excluding only one side. The installation table 5 on which the black light 6 is installed is arranged on one side except the above. The central axis of the black light is arranged so as to coincide with the central axis of the hexagonal cylinder.

能の再生ができる。In the air purifying apparatus configured as described above, at the time of ventilation for purifying contaminated air, suction is performed from the entire outer surface of the filter side surface toward the inner surface, and contaminants are transferred to the hydrophobic zeolite of the honeycomb filter 2. Adsorb. When the black light 6 is turned on, the entire inner surface of the filter 2 is irradiated with ultraviolet light, and the contaminants adsorbed on the zeolite are efficiently oxidized and decomposed by the action of the photocatalyst, so that the adsorption function can be regenerated.
