LED environmental monitoring and environmental lighting Report

Local time on April 8th, the U.S. Department of energy (United States Department of Energy, DOE) released the LED environmental monitoring and environmental lighting report. As part of the third part of the LED environmental testing study, this report presents new research on LED lighting and the National Academy of Sciences on solid state lighting (SSL).

U.S. Department of energy's LED environmental testing study of harmful substances in LED lighting. The previous two studies department of energy of energy consumption and material manufacturing process of LED lighting products are studied. The end part of the report that introduces 17 kinds of hazardous waste may exceed the relevant provisions of the United States and 22 samples of potentially toxic substances in the lamp, the testing part includes the dismantling and abrasive products, packaging materials will be exposed outside.

The first two reports concluded that the adverse effects of LED lighting on the environment were much lower than that of incandescent lamps, slightly less than compact fluorescent lamps. In the actual test, LED lighting in the field of energy performance in an overwhelming advantage to win, with the continuous improvement of technology, the advantages of LED will continue to increase. The third part concludes that LED lighting products do not need to avoid the use of toxicity.

At the same time, the National Academy of Sciences (United States National of Sciences, NAS), the latest research will focus on the future development and impact of solid state lighting in the future, Academy. In its research report, the National Academy of Sciences proposed to continue to invest in the light of the core, while improving the efficiency of light to increase the yield of product manufacturing, these two programs will reduce the cost of solid-state lighting. This study is not limited to LED lighting, but also organic light-emitting diodes
