34 Ultra-Violet Disinfection

35 Ultra-Violet Disinfection UV light in natural sunlight, has germicidal properties The wavelength of light between 200 and 280 nm is called shortwave UV light (UVC) UVC Destroys the DNA structure of bacteria and viruses and as a result prevents their multiplication It is most effective for the destruction of cells at nm

36 Why Ultra-Violet Disinfection? Eliminates all pathogens - some of which are resistant to chemical disinfection Safe No Transport or on site storage of chemicals Able to discharge to the environment No residual chlorine Does not alter the colour or taste of drinking water

37 Current UV systems Manufacturers supply systems with either: Low Pressure lamps High Intensity Low Pressure lamps Medium Pressure lamps Hi-Low Pressure Lamps Medium Pressure Lamps

38 Ultra-Violet Technology Microwave powered - Low Pressure, High Intensity lamps Designed to overcome the problems associated with current UV systems Offers many benefits:- Instant Light Electrode-less 1kW to 2kW Lamps no cables in the process fluid Fully variable power to flow 20% of input energy is emitted at 254nm same as HI IP lamps No fade lamps start of life same as end of life Long life expect >50,000 hrs (over 5 years) We fully guarantee you will not need to replace a lamp for 3 years

39 LAMPS MEDIUM PRESSURE 1-7 KW - Typical 2.7kW Efficiency 5-10% (10% is spread between nm) Positives: High power lamps mean less lamps / lower capital cost / smaller footprint Negatives Poor 254nm output allows regrowth of damaged viruses Large temperature generation (>600 o C) contributes to fouling of quartz sleeves. Slow to light Cooling cycle and flow required at all times of operation Equipment reliability issues Limited lamp life 9 to 12,000 hours - needs extensive standby!

40 Benefits of Microwave UV FOOTPRINT Quay System Fewer Lamps, Compact power supply. No cooling /secondary system Low pressure Large number of lamps and separate control cabinets. Spares storage Medium Pressure Large MCCs Cooling Spares storage

41 Benefits of Microwave UV LOW PRESSURE Surface temperature of the QUAY Lamp is 60 C at full power Surface temperature of the quartz sleeve is close to the temperature of the liquid being treated This leads to: No baking on of residues Less stress on Lamps and sleeve Less cleaning Simpler cleaning mechanism No change in liquid temperature No cooling cycle required at low or zero flows
