High-pressure mercury-vapor lamps are nowadays available for more than 80 years and will keep importance for the future at least for disinfection applications or lacquer curing. Although the lighting market changed dramatically, Hg lamps are still present; moreover they formed the basis for most of the advanced technologies. Mercury is not only an ingredient in metal-halide lamps but also in many sodium-vapor lamps or in xenon lamps, because of its outstanding material properties.
