Abstract

The Portable Mini UV Sterilizer is an innovative sanitation device designed to improve conventional cleaning methods by effectively eliminating germs and microorganisms that may survive regular disinfectants and hot water cleaning. Using advanced UV light technology, the device disinfects surfaces within seconds, making it suitable for public spaces such as shopping complexes, playgrounds, hotels, workplaces, and homes. Its compact, lightweight, and portable design allows users to conveniently carry it in handbags, backpacks, or luggage for on-the-go disinfection. The sterilizer is user-friendly, efficient, and practical for sanitizing surfaces such as tabletops, bedding, and personal hygiene items, offering a safer and more hygienic solution for everyday use.
