7. A bactericidal odor removal device as defined in claim 1, wherein said bactericidal substance includes holes, hydroxyl radicals, superoxide radicals.
8. The sterilizing and deodorizing device according to claim 1, wherein the sterilizing and deodorizing device comprises a housing defining the air passage, and portions of the housing corresponding to the air inlet end and the air outlet end are each provided in a grid hollowed-out structure.
9. A sterilizing and deodorizing device, characterized in that the sterilizing and deodorizing device comprises a fan and a sterilizing and deodorizing device according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein the fan is arranged opposite to the sterilizing and deodorizing device and is used for enabling air to be sterilized and deodorized to flow through the sterilizing and deodorizing device in an accelerating way.
10. A sterilizing and deodorizing method applied to the control unit of the sterilizing and deodorizing device according to claim 9, the control unit being in signal connection with the blower, the first light source and the second light source, characterized in that the sterilizing and deodorizing method comprises:
controlling the fan to be started, so that the gas to be sterilized and odorized enters the sterilizing and odorizing device from the air inlet end;
the first light source is controlled to be turned on, so that the emergent light of the first light source excites the first photocatalyst unit and the second photocatalyst unit to release sterilizing substances so as to sterilize and smell the gas to be sterilized and smell-removed;
and controlling the second light source to be turned on, so that the emergent light of the second light source excites the third photocatalyst unit to release sterilizing substances, and further sterilizing and deodorizing the gas flowing out of the second photocatalyst unit.
