THIS TURNS WASTEWATER INTO POTABLE WATER??

UV light is a common & non-toxic way to disinfect treated wastewater

WHAT IS UV LIGHT?

Ultraviolet (UV) light is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is invisible to the human eye

UV lies between X-rays and visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum:

GERMICIDAL PROPERTIES

UV lamps instantly neutralize
microorganisms in treated wastewater

A unique characteristic of UV is that a specific range wavelengths are classified as germicidal - meaning they can render microorganisms (ie bacteria & viruses) as inactive & incapable of reproducing or infecting

BENEFITS OF UV

Ultraviolet is a cost-effective alternative to chemical disinfection (ie chlorine) - plus UV is also non-toxic to the environment & generates no by-products

WHEN TO DISINFECT

UV disinfection is commonly recommended for wastewater systems that are close to water or near environmentally sensitive areas

AQUAKLEAR CASE STUDY

Treated water from AquaKlear's 
clarifier passes over the UV lamp

THIS AQUAKLEAR SYSTEM uses Salcor UV disinfection because the property is adjacent to a creek, has groundwater at less than 3' and is less than 1000' away from an organic farm


Every AquaKlear treatment system is equipped for optional UV disinfection
