Two problems: The UV-C actually needs to reach the microbes, so you could only use it on liquids that you could expose to it in very thin layers (probably why the main application is sterilizing juices and equipment surfaces) - and it is really, really harmful to your eyes (the gadget mentioned has a closed chamber and a safety interlock)! | |
