Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a highly effective disinfectant, offering many benefits to a wide range of applications with UV disinfection water treatment systems. UV disinfection is very popular due to its effectiveness, ease of use, and safety among many other benefits. UVC germicidal lamps properly designed to emit the most effective wavelength are the key to achieving effective UV disinfection in any application.
Ultraviolet Disinfection of Water
UV disinfection of water offers many benefits to a wide range of water disinfection applications and many advantages over other disinfection methods such as chlorination. UV light is proven to eliminate many microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and even some harmful pathogens that are not eliminated by chlorine. UV disinfection water treatment systems eliminate protozoa such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia which are resistant to chlorine.
UV germicidal disinfection is proven to eradicate these parasites from water supplies and prevent widespread illnesses. UV disinfection water treatment systems are found worldwide in many applications including:
- Wastewater treatment plants
- Water reclamation
- Drinking water treatment
- Aquaculture
- Pool and spa
- Life sciences
- Ballast water treatment systems
UV disinfection of water provides many benefits for these applications and many other commercial and industrial processes. The LightSources Group offers many UVC germicidal lamps which are proven effective in these water disinfection applications with custom-designed solutions available to meet specific disinfection requirements.
UV Disinfection Water Treatment Benefits
UVC germicidal lamps by LightSources are found worldwide in a multitude of UV disinfection water treatment systems. Our UV lamps are proven to be highly effective, providing many benefits over other disinfection methods which include:
- Kills microorganisms chlorine does not
- Environmentally safe
- Proven highly effective
- Instant results
- FDA approved
- Cost-effective
- Safe for humans
- Odorless and tasteless
- Consistent and reliable
- Little to no maintenance is required
UV disinfection of water provides these benefits and many others, making it a popular method of water disinfection in many applications. In some cases, combining with a filtration system enhances the effectiveness as murky water may block UV radiation with foreign particles. Combined with a filtration method, UV disinfection is extremely effective and eradicates harmful contaminants within seconds of exposure.
