A method for destruction of toxic compounds through direct ultraviolet irradiation. Continuum W radiation from the deep region of the spectrum is applied to the target medium in pulsed fashion with a specified range of power ratios and average power. Enhanced destruction of undesirable toxins is achieved when the ratio of rms power to average power falls in the characteristic range of 10:1 to 200:1; the ratio of peak power to average power falls in the characteristic range of 1000:1 to 10,000:1; and the average power density is maintained at least at a value of about 0.1 Watt/cm2 within the carrier medium.

Why it's free to use
- Filed July 5, 1991. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended July 5, 2011.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 5, 2013.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
