The purpose of the article is to discuss methods of air disinfection in passenger aircraft cabins during flight. In the course of the study, a comparative analysis of modern methods of cleaning and disinfecting air in closed rooms was carried out. The efficiency, mass characteristics and energy consumption of UV sources are compared. The use of photocatalytic filters based on the phenomenon of oxidation of organic substances under the influence of sunlight in the presence of a catalyst is proposed. As a result, the authors compare the efficiency of disinfection and energy consumption when using various methods of air purification. In addition, the authors draw conclusions about the prospects of the proposed method of air disinfection using photocatalytic filters in relation to the cabins of passenger aircrafts. The schemes of rational placement of UV sources are proposed, which allow obtaining the maximum efficiency of air disinfection.
