2 Fundamentals of MP Disinfection amp Output (W/cm) UVDGM MP amp Modern MP amp Wavelength (nm) MP amp Output (W/cm) amp Output UV Sensor Response Wavelength (nm) UVA (cm-1) Aquifer 1 - No Absorber Aquifer 2 - No Absorber Wavelength (nm) Aquifer 1 -With Absorber Aquifer 2 -With Absorber Quartz Sleeve UVT (%) Type 214 Quartz Type 219 Quartz Synthetic Quartz Wavelength (nm) Dose Action MS-2 Crypto Wavelength (nm) 2

3 Current Guidance UVDGM 2006 UVDGM 2006 considers polychromatic light Describes an approach to account for action spectra differences by calculating the ratio of germicidal output (Pg) for the microbes of interest (Action Spectra Correction Factor) 3 Prominent example: ASCF MS2 / Cryptosporidium: 1.04 However, MP lamps may have a significantly higher output at low wavelengths than the emission spectrum used in the UVDGM ASCF as defined in theuvdgm does not consider quartz sleeve and water UVT and therefore may lead to overly conservative results

4 Current Guidance WRF Project 4376 Guidance for Implementing Action Spectra Correction With Medium Pressure UV Disinfection, 2015 Create accurate action spectra of adenovirus,cryptosporidium, and Giardia and commonly used validation microbes Develop recommendations for calculating action spectra correction factors (ASCFs) by accounting for differences in the action spectra of common validation test microbes and regulated pathogens, UV output from the MP lamp, UV transmittance of the quartz sleeve, UV absorbance spectra of the water, and the reactor s lamp configuration Establish recommendations for applying ASCFs for regulatory credit. 4

19 Calculated Dose Approach for MP systems with low and high wavelength sensors Summary ow andhigh wavelengthascf s can(and should) be calculated acc. towrf 4376 A test matrix for the presented algorithm should include test conditions that maximize and minimize the contribution of low wavelengths The calculated dose algorithm with low andhigh wavelength sensors for MP systems predicts log inactivation and RED of Adenovirus Using a low wavelength sensor can provide significant advantages for some operational scenarios Without a low wavelength sensorascf s need tobeconsidered (WRF 4376) which may result in significant performance losses 19
