Wastewater

Ultraviolet technology used to help disinfect wastewater is a chemical-free process that renders harmful microorganisms safe and helps provide clean water for residents, workers and local flora and fauna.

Wastewater Treated with UV Technology

Treating and reusing wastewater (known as grey or black water depending on where it has come from) for agricultural use is increasingly attractive to cities and municipal governments as more areas of the world suffer regular droughts brought on by climate change.

MAKING WATER SAFE FOR REUSE

Untreated wastewater can contain chemical pollution, pharmaceutical residue, pathogens and microbes. So it is essential that it is made safe before it is either reused or pumped away where it will eventually join watercourses.


Traditional methods of treating water, for example with the use of chlorine, can create harmful by-products that are released into the environment when the water is used.


UV technology used in disinfection of wastewater is a chemical-free process that renders harmful microorganisms safe and ensures safe water for residents, workers and flora and fauna that inhabits local water bodies. How does UV light work in disinfection systems?

Alpha-Purify works with many disinfection equipment manufacturers to supply them with UV lamps that keep people safe and enable countries to reuse water around the world.

WHY UV TECHNOLOGY MAKES SENSE FOR WASTEWATER TREAMENTS

There are many benefits of using UV technology in treatment systems including:


  • The physical rather than chemical process creates no by-products.
  • Pathogens cannot build a resistance to ultraviolet light.
  • Ultraviolet light deactivates chlorine-resistant microorganisms so they cannot reproduce.
  • Less chemical handling means safer use.
  • More environmentally friendly than chemical-based systems.

WATCH HOW UV TECHNOLOGY IS HELPING TREAT OF WASTEWATER

We've produced this video to help explain the areas that UV technology can help in wastewater treatment. Helping countries and populations reuse vital supplies of water.


The video also explains how ultraviolet light works in disabling microorganisms to make them safe and the water suitable for reuse.
