The Bangladesh Marine Academy has invented a disinfectant oven to curb the spread of coronavirus. The disinfectant 'UV Oven' will disinfect everyday necessary items such as mobile phones, masks, moneybag etc. in just two minutes.
Md Khaled Uddin, lab instructor of the Marine Academy created this UV disinfectant. He said, "This initiative became successful because of the modern technological environment and encouragement and support given by the head of the institution"
"The face mask is the main tool to prevent spreading of coronavirus. But recently some research has shown that the coronavirus can last up to 7 days in this mask, so the mask needs to be disinfected regularly," he added.
