This is to certify that I have completed the Civil Engineering Project entitled
DESIGNING AND DEVELOPING DISINFECTION CHAMBER TO PREVENT
COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) under the guidance of Engr. Ginalyn G. Sumait in partial
fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil
Engineering at Faculty of Engineering, Aurora State College of Technology. This is my
original work and I have not submitted it elsewhere.

We want to express our warm appreciation first and foremost to our beloved
family who serves as our inspiration throughout this journey, who kept us on pushing
and encouraging us to be the best person we could be. We are thankful because of their
trust and love.
To our friends and project members for staying with us through thick and thin.
We are thankful for all the hardships we encountered and conquered.
To our institution Aurora State College of Technology, where we are currently
molding our skills and capabilities as a Civil Engineering Student. To all the faculty,
instructors and professors of the Engineering Department
And finally, to our almighty Father God, for guiding us, for the wisdom,
knowledge, good health and never-ending love. We will be forever grateful and blessed
because of his mightiness. This whole project will not be possible without blessing and
guidance.

BELEN, JOSEPH KERVYN D., HIDALGO, MICHAEL R., RAMOS,
JOHN PAUL, MATNOG, ALFRED V., Department of Engineering, Aurora State
College of Technology, Baler, Aurora, Philippines. December 2021. DESIGNING
AND DEVELOPING DISINFECTION CHAMBER TO PREVENT COVID-19
(SARS-CoV-2)
Adviser: GINALYN G. SUMAIT, INSTRUCTOR
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Coronavirus disease
(COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Most people infected with the virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory
illness and recover without requiring special treatment. However, some will become
seriously ill and require medical attention. Older people and those with underlying
medical conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or
cancer are more likely to develop serious illness. Anyone can get sick with COVID-19
and become seriously ill or die at any age.
Due to the widespread of COVID-19 pandemic, Civil engineering students
came up with an idea about the UV disinfection chamber and misting disinfection
chamber that will give a contribution to the safety of the students and faculty of the
Engineering Department of Aurora State College of Technology for the preparation of
upcoming face to face learning system and to help to maintain the focus of the students
on gaining knowledge without the threat of Covid-19 virus. The integrated misting
disinfection chamber aids in the eradication of bacteria and viruses for any incoming
individual by spraying a disinfectant mist over complete clothes in an environmentally
and budget friendly manner, as well as UV light chamber for students' and instructors'
engineering study kits. The chamber will be placed near the Engineering Gym's
entrance. Multiple mist vents will be installed throughout the chamber, preferably near
where the people would stand, and they need to put their hands under the sensor one
time to turn it on and twice to turn it off. It will detect movement and triggers the mist
vents to discharge disinfecting liquid. If the people enter the chamber with their things,
the UV lightbox will disinfect those items in three options, button 1 for 5 minutes,
button 2 for 10 minutes, and the additional button for on and off. Developing a human
disinfection chamber with a misting machine and a built-in ultraviolet light box
sanitizer will truly help to reduce the spreading of Covid-19 virus.
